Netflix’s iOS app has been redesigned, with new animations, parallax effects, and elements that move when the phone is tilted, making for a fresh UI experience.
The app has been updated with a new feature that displays a large map advertising a movie or series, moving with a parallax effect using the iPhone’s accelerometer sensor. Additionally, 9to5Google reports that it’s now easier to filter content by category, switch between profiles, or search without interruptions.
When you select a movie or series, the artwork on the cover expands to reveal all related information. In addition, the “Coming Soon” section has been revamped and renamed “What’s New” and personalized recommendations to the user are displayed.
According to Janum Trivedi via 9to5Google, the Netflix iOS app update includes several new features that improve the user experience. One of the most notable new features is the ability to change the billboard layout when the user moves their device, accompanied by a subtle lighting effect.
For the past year, I’ve led a user interface refresh to make Netflix feel smoother, more enjoyable, and more polished. All that work has been shipped today!
Big thanks to @nebson and @b3ll for helping bring this to life ❤️
