Open Netflix links in the app
Paste a Netflix URL and get a link that opens the Netflix app instead of the browser — with a web fallback for everyone else.
Free forever. No login. Works with netflix.com links.
Which Netflix links work
toThe.App recognises links on netflix.com. These URL shapes are handled:
- https://www.netflix.com/title/TITLE_ID
- https://www.netflix.com/watch/TITLE_ID
- https://www.netflix.com/browse
On iPhone
Title, watch and browse URLs open to the matching screen in the app.
On Android
Handled the same way as on iPhone: the Netflix app opens directly when it is installed.
Known limitations
No link can force a phone to open an app. These are the cases where a Netflix link falls back to the web:
- The title has to be available in the viewer's Netflix region.
- A Netflix subscription is required; without one the app opens on the signup screen.
Questions
How do I make a Netflix link open in the app?
Paste the Netflix URL into the generator above and select Make short link. Share the result. On a phone with Netflix installed, the link offers to open the app; otherwise it continues to the Netflix website.
Which Netflix URLs are supported?
Links on netflix.com are recognised. Typical shapes: https://www.netflix.com/title/TITLE_ID · https://www.netflix.com/watch/TITLE_ID · https://www.netflix.com/browse.
What happens on iPhone?
Title, watch and browse URLs open to the matching screen in the app.
What happens on Android?
Handled the same way as on iPhone: the Netflix app opens directly when it is installed.
Why did the Netflix app not open?
The device makes the final call. Common reasons: the app is not installed, the specific URL type is not covered (The title has to be available in the viewer's Netflix region.), or the link was tapped inside another app's in-app browser, which will not hand off to a native app. The web fallback always works.
