The 'secret' Netflix codes that can unlock 100s of family and kids' movies
Most of us tend to scroll the Netflix homepage for new movies, kids' shows, etc - but if you know the secret codes you can 'unlock' hundreds of movies and TV programmes
If you find yourself scrolling the Netflix homepage for ages trying to find something new to watch, either for your or the kids - you're not alone!
Here at MFM HQ, most of the team admit we do exactly the same thing fairly regularly ?
But after reading an article in The Sun, we discovered there are a whole host of other movies and kids programmes on Netflix that don't get surfaced...
Turns out, you can find them all by adding a number to the end of the Netflix url in your browser on a phone or tablet.
How do I use the secret Netflix codes to unlock hundreds of films and TV shows?
The Sun has published a list of all genres of films including boxing movies, classic westerns, mysteries, New Zealand thrillers and much more and the 'secret code' that you need to access them.

Simply put the code (usually a 4 or 5 digit number) at the end of the url in the browser using a forward slash: /INSERTNUMBER
We thought we'd pick out kids/family films, so we tried a couple of codes ourselves and they worked a treat.
