Netflix Improves Support for Android-Powered Smartphones and Tablets

By

Netflix announced this week that the company has expanded its support for the Android mobile operating system with the release of a new Netflix app for Android. The new app adds support for tablets running Android 3.x and, for the first time, lets Netflix members in Canada and Latin America instantly watch TV episodes and movies streaming from Netflix on their Android-powered smartphones and tablets. The new Netflix App for Android adds Android 3.x-powered tablets to the list of Android devices supported by Netflix in the U.S. and significantly increases the devices supported by Netflix in Canada and Latin America. This means that Android 2.2, 2.3, and 3.x devices in the USA, Canada, and Latin America should be able to download and use this App.
