Why would you want to adjust your language settings?
Research by Streamwijzer has shown that a part of the Netflix subscribers have access to a smaller range of titles. This depends on the language settings of the user’s profile. The difference is especially prevalent for series. In the Netherlands, more than 6% of the series in the Netflix library is currently not available for viewers with Dutch language settings compared to viewers with English language settings.
Can the language settings differ per user profile within an account?
You can have different language settings per user profile within your account. Would you like to keep your account in your native language but still have access to extra movies and series? Create a new profile, call it “English”, and view all additional titles that are directly available directly via this profile!
