Netflix confirms it didn’t mean to support that Apple TV feature everyone has wanted for years

Netflix has taken a break from raising prices to confirm that it didn’t mean to support that Apple TV feature everyone has wanted for years.

Earlier today, Apple TV set-top box users started noticing that Netflix movies and TV shows were appearing in Apple’s TV app. The basic integration brought Netflix into the world of Apple TV’s universal queue for adding and resuming content from a watch list.

Within a few hours of popping up in the United States, however, the feature started to vanish. Mark Gurman at Bloomberg shared that he believed the integration was a bug, although actual support could come in the future. Meanwhile, The Verge reports that Netflix has confirmed that support for Apple’s TV app was a mistake and not intended to occur.

Netflix has notoriously not played nice with Apple’s TV app because it prefers to be the one-true-channel for streaming movies and TV shows.

Now back to your regularly scheduled Netflix price increases.
