Netflix add screen lock to Android

Have you ever been watching a show on Netflix and accidentally pressed a button on your keyboard? It's kind of disappointing to have the rep stop and the first one appears selection screen of episodes.

Netflix released today another one new feature on Android devices that tries to prevent such accidents.

Netflix

This new feature allows Android users to avoid accidental “interference” when using it Netflix for mobile. A “screen lock” that will appear at the bottom of your screen after you start watching a TV series or a movie, has come to the rescue.

Enabling Screen Lock will stop the Play/Pause buttons from appearing, helping you avoid of playback or accidentally activating subtitles. If you want to disable the feature, tap your screen and an “unlock” message will appear, you need to tap it twice.

However, the system movements on the Android screen still work even when the function is activated. If you are someone who moves a lot while watching or you have a small child next to you watching, this feature could prove to be a valuable tool.
