Netflix Official App is in the Market

[zandroidx]

I've been using the hacked version, but I see that there is now an official release in the market, and it works!

 

[MutantCheese]

yep. Just tried it.

Seconded. The problem with it is that the interface is pretty bland. It streams well on a rooted Gingerbread DX, but it's not a particularly good queue manager at all. For the latter, I still have to use NetQ. I'm happy to have official streaming Netflix (had it via PlayOn before) but it'd be nice if they'd both release it for my Xoom AND improve the interface a lot.

I dl'd it the other day and it performs pretty well. Watched 60% of takers with very little problem and I'm running stock GB.

Ya pretty excited they finally put it on one of the phones that deserves it!

Does it work on a rooted X running Froyo?

No, I'm pretty sure I remember it said in the release notes that it worked on the X's that are on 2.3.3 (GB) only.

Wow! It actually works! I don't need my er..uh..... downloaded?? movies anymore!

Works fine on froyo. Always has.

The one from the Market?

The one from market works and the app has always worked for the x except for the safety block they put in prior to testing it on the x.

I know the hacked app/pre Market release app worked on the X.

I'm just wondering about the current app in the Market now, it works with no tweaks/hacks on Froyo?

 

[Sarnow]

Haven't tried it on froyo, haven't tested it yet. going to put apex on my phone so I might test it since I will have to set my phone up anyways.

Great to hear that the offical release works on the DX but I would love to see it on my Xoom too. Do we still need Real HDMI to stream it to a TV?
