WhatsApp now allows you to play Netflix clips without leaving the app

WhatsApp's internal video player allows you to play YouTube, Facebook or Instagram videos without leaving the app, either in chat or as a floating window. Now Netflix joins a selection of compatible services: that is, a Netflix movie or series that someone has shared with you on WhatsApp allows you to view the clip without leaving the app.




This new update has been discovered by Android Police: WhatsApp has activated the video player for all shared Netflix links. It had taken months to release WhatsApp for iOS, but so far it has not been activated on Android. And it is really useful if you are used to sharing your favorite series and movies on WhatsApp.
Despite the fact that the WhatsApp messaging app launcher can play Netflix content, do not think you will be able to watch the entire movie or series, as only the trailer is shown. However, it is good to know if what they shared with you is interesting or not to watch it next on Netflix.



To view Netflix clips, you don't need a specific version of WhatsApp: The company has activated the option from the server.
