New Netflix Interface

[Yotch]

Netflix will begin to roll out a new interface for PlayStation, Xbox, Smart TVs and the Roku 3 over the coming weeks. Earlier versions of the Roku will have to wait a bit longer.

Forgot to check on my TV last night. It's been in need of an update.
Can't wait to not have to be recommended "What not to wear" and crap that my wife watches

Apparently some of the Roku 3 users on the Roku forum have already received the upgrade so hopefully you won't have to wait much longer ...

Update for Netflix for ATV?

Ah!

See below

Apple TV users are among those that won’t be getting the Netflix update, as are future Xbox One owners. The reason, as explained by AllThingsD’s Peter Kafka, is because Apple and Microsoft have specific rules on how apps can present content.

“But the reason Netflix can’t overhaul its look for other devices — like Apple’s Apple TVs, and Microsoft’s new Xbox One — is because the device manufacturers have specific rules about the way app developers can present their stuff on their devices.

Apple, for instance, requires all of its developers to hew to a grid design, which is why HBO’s app, ESPN’s app and Netflix’s app all basically look and feel the same. The new Xbox console plays off the “live tiles” Microsoft is using on Windows 8 and its mobile OS.

The Netflix guys are too polite to talk about any of that, of course.”

Profiles work on my WD TV Live.

If there was one feature I want it is that. A week a ago we had two kids sleeping over and one of them was watch cartoons the whole weekend. Add to that my wife's touchy feely stuff...now i have messed up recommendations.

Profiles have been confirmed for the new interface but not sure if the options in the interface will differ from platform to platform.

Profiles and "My list" have been working for a while now on my iPad and Apple TV.Great feature so surprised it's not available across all devices.

Mine not updated yet. They're probably rolling out the update in batches.
