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 with Android trying to prevent these kinds of accidents.

Netflix

This new feature allows Android users to avoid accidental "interference" when using the Netflix mobile app. An "lock screen" option that appears at the bottom of your screen after you start watching a TV series or movie has come to the rescue.

Enabling the screen lock will stop the “Play/Pause” buttons from appearing, helping you avoid stopping playback or accidentally turning on subtitles. If you want to disable the feature, tap your screen and an “unlock” message will appear, you should tap it times.

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.
