You can now navigate Netflix in the Filipino language
Want a full Filipino experience on Netflix? That's possible now.
The streaming giant announced that a Filipino user interface (UI) has been made available as of Friday.
This new feature allows subscribers to read titles and synopses in Filipino, plus watch shows and movies with Filipino subtitles and in Filipino dubbing. You can switch your profile to Filipino from the language option in the ‘Manage Profiles’ section on your desktop, TV, or mobile browsers.
“At Netflix, we believe our members should be able to choose their viewing experience, whether it be the genre, format, or language of the content," said Malobika Banerji, Netflix Content Director for Southeast Asia in a statement. "We are very happy that our Filipino members will now have the option to enjoy their favorite Netflix content from all over the world with Filipino subtitles and dubbing, should they prefer to watch as such."
The Filipino UI feature is also available to members outside of the Philippines.
Netflix first launched in the Philippines six years ago. —JCB, GMA News
