From Black screen with sound Netflix Help Center
If you use Airplay or Screen Mirroring
Airplay and Screen Mirroring are no longer supported by Netflix.
To use your iPhone or iPad to watch Netflix on a TV, use a supported connection.
Also it has to be an 'ad free; type of account:
True, but in this case legal won that battle. Plus it's easier. We use Swank for licensing the physical media playback anyways so we just tacked on the streaming service and we have our butts covered.
@ger Sorry if I am missing something here but you would assign license / push out the managed app via MDM / Jamf to the apple tv device, it is the same as the ipadOS app.
Instead of airplay you are now playing the content directly via the Netflix app installed on the Apple TV.
As unhelpful as it sounds, anyone that has a netflix account and wants to display content, will need to log into the Apple TV app then navigate the interface to play.
Airplay (I imagine) has less ways of ramming adverts down your throat so the main streaming apps cut off support as opposed streaming content directly in app.
Ok great. Yes either, just depends if they still have the remote but sign-in on screen.
* Yes we do, either by managed iPad or unmanaged iOS device.
* Yes it sure is, send out a profile to your Apple TV's and allow list either;
- iOS devices that are allowed to use Apple TV Remote app with this ATV
- Apple TV's that are allowed to be controlled with iOS / Apple TV Remote app
You can browse individual managed devices to select and it will populate: name and mac address. Otherwise, set to all allowed.
I have to use JAMF School, and it seems to be different to your PRO version.
In ATV Profile under tvOS payload / Apple TV Remote / I may allow all devices with Apple TV Remote App to control ATVs. Or I may enter the MAC-Address of allowed devices.
As I do not want students to use the Netflix App and as I do not want them to control the ATVs with their iPad, I did not select the ALL devices option.
For testing purpose I entered the MAC of my iPhone, WLAN and Bluetooth. ( do I have to enter it with or without : , like AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF or like AABBCCDDEEFF )
But I could not connect to the ATV.
I do not have your "Controlled Apple TV Devices" option, but I may assign a device group containing the ATVs to the profile.
Unfortunately my JAMF School WebUserInterface is in german and I can not find any setting to switch to english, Windows and Browser are set to english. My account information is even shown in english. :-(
Strange about not seeing the settings, maybe just confirm there isn't any filtering toggled on when creating the profile as those two settings are meant for different models and will disappear if filtered with the other device. Good luck!

I have same issue. About 3 weeks ago, the video didnt work only netflix and youtube app. I shut down my phone. Unfortunately, it wasnt perfect solution. I also did reset all settings. It seemed to have solved problem completely, but I get same issue now. I want to know which thing occurs this problem, with apps or IOS? No matter what it is, it needs to be updated.
I have been trying to use the Netflix app on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.1.2. There are several issues I've encountered when trying to use this app with VoiceOver and wonder if anyone else has experienced these issues and/or has developed some workarounds.
1. Often when I click on the title of a video (which VoiceOver identifies as a "button"), nothing happens. Sometimes I will have to double tap the video title / button four or five times before the phone goes into landscape mode and starts playing the video.
2. On the screen with my wish list, I do see a line entitled My Wish List" with various videos below it. Above this, however, I also see a line that says "continue watching". Below this line are the titles of videos which I've watched (these are also identified as "buttons"). Question: How do I get rid of these already watched items? They are beginning to pile up and clutter the display. Again, tapping on these items doesn't reliably work to open them. I'll sometimes have to double tap a number of times before any item is activated.
I just looked at the app again. When you find the show you want to watch double click on it and a popup box will appear. You will need to move your finger around the screen for VO to recognize the box. Once in it you can swipe to rate the show, get a discription, add it to your list and play the movie or show. the play button is on the upper left corner and the close button is on the upper right corner. I hope this helps.
Hi everyone. So I listened to the podcast and read the guide on using this app both which were posted some time ago. It would appear that a lot has changed though. In no way have I been able to explore the screen or access the lists under each heading. At the top I see a landmark, followed by a heading that says trending, under which are a bunch of movies headings and things. Is this app even remotely useable now? I can't even see anything like a button to switch genres, etc.
Any help would be really appreciated.
I have observed many of these same issues with Netflix when using voiceOver. the interface is not intuitive and difficult to use with VoiceOver. I'm surprised they did such a poor job of this. I think it is time for us to start writing to their support department to make them aware of these issues. There is no excuse for such a poor design these days.
So I got a chance to try it on an iPad, and it works fine. You have to explore around to get to the buttons you want, but I was expecting that. I got a friend with an iPhone 6+ to test it and it works fine, does anyone successfully use it on a 5S? I don't have an iPad. I've also been told it works on an Apple TV, I've never really messed with those so yeah I'm not sure.
I've been using this app successfully ever since I got my phone 2 years ago. It might not be perfect but I don't think we need to write every company that has an app that isn't 100 percent efffective for us. It's just a matter of using the work-arounds.
Exploring isn't the problem. In fact, from what I've seen from other people the app seems quite useable. As I drag my finger round the screen, its literally reading nothing. I could swipe 10 times and finally hear something like, season 1. Same happens when dragging my finger round, I'll randomly land on an icon but exploring around it or even remotely near it still yields nothing.
I've been using the netflix app fairly successfully with the iPhone 6 and iPod touch for a while.
The two unlabeled buttons are search and a sort of menu button (for browsing by genre, switching profile and such).
Regarding the focus on the video in question, I found that scrolling sometimes helps (with 3-finger swiping til you get to the page VoiceOver is focused on in sync with the screen).

i use the netflix app on a Iphone 6 which runns with IOS 10.3. I tested Netflix 2 years ago and I noticed that Netflix gets many many improvements. 99% of all labels are labled and the play/pause rewind menue gets more accessible.
But I've a question about the scrolling from episodes of a tV-show.
For example: I want look "The walking dead" if I swipe right to check all episodes it automatically swipe back. I don't want to swipe with three fingers up it's unconfortable and it's a strange way. I want to check all episodes without getting automatically back.
I'm a big fan of the Amazon Instant Video app on IOS which is 100% accessible and it makes fun to search all shows and movies. But I want to watch some Netflix
origininals.
thanks
Ipad on AP11 FW 1.4.1 is unable to stream video on netflix and IMDB
On the netflix APP, I get an error, Network Error, we could not play this video due to a network error. Pls try again later.
If I tunnel VPN thru the wifi connection, the same IPAD is able to successful stream video on netflix and IMDB.
All other android and windows PC is able to access netflix and IMDB normally.
I have already disabled the app control feature totally. But the traffic block still occurs. (Change to application activity summary)
@aberchin This is not expected behavior I have tested with an AP12 with an iPad running 13.3 and I tested Netflix and unlimited and limited bandwidth with 1MB and it still ran. Please reach out to support to assist in troubleshooting.
