The new feature allows users to choose between four timer settings: 15, 30, 45 minutes or at the end of the episode.

When the selected time limit expires, the Netflix app will stop. This should, in theory, help keep the battery life in Android, while ensuring that episodes will not continue to be played automatically.

Although testing is limited to select users worldwide with Android devices at the moment, Netflix will make it available on other devices, such as TVs and desktops, depending on whether subscribers like the idea, according to the company. .
