Feature Idea: The Netflix iOS Widget

Published: 09/09/2025

The Netflix iOS Widget - New Releases, Instantly on Your Home Screen 📺🍿

We all know the routine. You unlock your phone. Open Netflix. Scroll. Scroll. Scroll. Close it. Open it again later. But what if you didn’t need to?

What if Netflix introduced a dynamic iOS Home Screen widget that updated daily with new releases right there on your phone?

No opening the app

No searching

No endless browsing

Our New Releases Concept:

Discover the latest films and series the moment they drop, refreshed daily based on the shows you've watched and delivered straight to your home screen. No scrolling, no searching, just what’s new, ready to watch with a single tap. Continue From Where You Left Off:

Jump straight back into what you were watching without opening the app or searching again. Your most recently played shows and films appear instantly on your home screen, updated in real time so you can resume exactly where you left off with a single tap.

Select the larger widget to display two of your recently watched titles ready to resume, or opt for the smaller version to keep one quick access show front and centre. Our Post on X / Twitter:
