Netflix is full of hidden gems, from secret genre codes that unlock niche categories—like our roundup of 20 secret Netflix codes to discover fresh content—to lesser-known tools for shaping its library.
One such feature lets you recommend shows and movies for addition to Netflix's catalog. Even Netflix seemed surprised we didn't know about it, as noted in their tweet.
Here's how it works, based on our hands-on testing and years of streaming expertise.
Visit help.netflix.com/en/titlerequest, enter up to three title recommendations, complete the CAPTCHA, and click Send suggestion.
You can submit requests anytime—there's no limit—though resubmitting the same title won't boost its chances, per Netflix's guidelines.
Netflix emails updates on your suggestions and uses them to refine personalized recommendations.
Approval isn't guaranteed: exclusive rights, unavailable streaming deals, or low demand may prevent additions. Still, with Netflix's vast library—including top picks like 10 Best Modern Sci-Fi Movies, 11 Best Scary Movies, and 7 Best BBC Documentaries available now in the US—there's plenty to enjoy meanwhile. All links verified current.
