"Your device isn't compatible with this version". Netflix users often meet such an error hint when they launch Netflix on an Android streaming player at home. So why Netflix can't be run smoothly on Android TV players?
Why Do Android TV Users Have Trouble Launching Netflix?
Android TVs are not "Netflix Certified Devices." in other words, Android TV brands are not on the Netflix-approved TV list. Only five TV brands are Netflix Recommended TVs: Panasonic Series, SAMSUNG Series, Sony Series, etc.
Though there is a guide on how to fix the incompatible problems, it seems that the given resolutions are not always working.
So, are there any other ways to make Netflix work on Android streaming media players?
Can We Watch Netflix on An Android Media Player?
The answer is YES.
As we all know, Netflix has updated to version 8. After version 6.26.1, Netflix is all added with the DRM technology to recognize your device. If your device is not on its TV-recommending list, an error warning will appear on the screen, and you can not go further.
Though you can watch your favorite movies or TV shows on your Android device as smoothly as a Netflix Approved TV after installing an older version. However, the previous versions only provide movies with low-quality and less customizable features.
Here's another choice: Netflix (Android TV).
Netflix is the leading subscription service for watching TV episodes and movies.
