Better Browse for Netflix is a Chrome extension that unlocks hundreds of secret Netflix categories hidden from the default browsing menu. With this extension, a new 'Browse all' menu is added to Netflix's menu bar, allowing users to explore a wide range of hidden genres and movie types.

Users can quickly navigate to main categories by typing their names in the search box, e.g., "action", "sci-fi", or "horror", for direct access. Additional shortcuts such as "random" help users discover a random category, while "me" takes them directly to their personal list. This extension enhances your Netflix experience by making it easier to find exactly the movies you want to watch.

I'm using it on MS Edge and it works brilliantly!! This should be offered automatically by Netflix ... But thanks to people like you, we can now see what we've been missing all of these years. I will be sharing this link with my friends and family. Thank you so much.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Better Browse for Netflix requires very minimum permissions.
