Netflix has updated its iOS app to version 4.1, adding several options to encourage continuous content viewing like auto-play for television episodes and post-movie recommendations.
With the new features, after watching an episode of a television show, the next episode will automatically begin to play. Additionally, after a movie ends, Netflix will offer three recommendations for similar movies. The update also includes enhanced second screen options.
- Added post-play feature where, when one episode of a TV show ends, the Netflix app automatically cues and then starts the next episode
- In post-play for movies, the three best movie recommendations are displayed at the end of the movie currently being watched
- Added enhanced second screen options
The universal Netflix app is available for download from the App Store for free. [Direct Link]

Apple didn't catch up - It's netflix's app, and they decide when to update it.
Hell, usually, it doesn't even finish the credits before playing the next episode.
Am I losing my mind?
Yeah! I hate it when the money I pay to a company helps them to provide a service that's if value to me!
Gah! What *******s!
I rarely watch episodes of the same series after each other. At least give us a option in your account to turn off this annoyance. I like opening sequence and the end credits. Remember when TV networks use to do that.
I hope the :apple:TV app is updated to include the new TV show continuous play feature. Consider it a playlist for TV shows. It is sooooo tiring to have to click the two or three times just to get the next episode to play :D Seriously, though, it can come in handy if you are otherwise occupied.
Exactly. People got spoiled by the selection of discs by mail, which allowed them to offer any dvd that was commercially available without needing to negotiate contract rights.
For a streaming service, there's a ton of great TV content and an OK movie selection. People complain it's not enough, but I have yet to see anyone suggest an alternative that has unlimited streaming at that price with a better selection (or really, at any price).
