Why is Netflix so difficult to navigate? If you are among those desperately wanting a single list of all the movies and TV series on Netflix, this article will turn your life around. Here’s how to see the entire Netflix catalog in order from A to Z.
How to see the entire Netflix catalog
Although you may think the opposite, seeing the entire Netflix catalog is very simple:
- Log into the platform with your account,
- Select the category concerned and,
- Flag the option to see all the titles of the platform.
First of all, make sure you have a smartphone, tablet or PC with a browser application like Google Chrome. Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to see the entire Netflix catalog through the App.
If you log in from an iPhone or smartphone, however, use the browser in desktop mode. If you use Chrome, for example, press the icon in the shape of three dots at the top right and select the item “Desktop site” from the pop-up that appears. On Safari, on the other hand, press the “aA” icon on the left of the URL bar and select “Request desktop site” from the overlay menu.
At this point, the procedure will be the same on all devices. Then log in to the official Netflix site and enter your login credentials. If you share the account with multiple people, you will also need to select the profile you want to access.
Click on the Browse section and choose whether to search for movies or TV series. Once this is done, activate the grid view by pressing on the icon of the four squares at the top right. Finally, click on the item Suggestions for you and choose whether to filter the films or TV series in alphabetical or output order.
Alternatives to browse the entire Netflix catalog
An excellent alternative that allows you to see the entire Netflix catalog is through special URLs that can be easily saved in your favorites.
By typing https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/# on your browser and replacing “#” with a unique identifier for that genre, you can view all the movies for that single genre. For example, for the Action & Adventure category, the code is 1365. Therefore, the link to access the category will be https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/1365.
Note that you will need to sign in to Netflix before you can browse the categories.

How to see the entire American Netflix catalog
As mentioned, in most countries there are not various contents available that can be used abroad. Conversely, if you find yourself abroad, different content you are used to in your country will not be available. There is a way to close this annoying gap between territories and it’s called a VPN.
Using a VPN, in fact, it is possible to mask your IP address, thus bypassing the restrictions based on geolocation. However, this procedure goes against Netflix’s terms and conditions and may have your account terminated.
So, consider how much such a procedure will be worth.
