Netflix: “Would Be Stupid of Us” to Ignore Android’s Continued Growth
We knew Netflix had plans to bring an app to our beloved platform since the start of the summer (after a job posting uncovered their plans to do just that), but we didn’t get a concrete window. We still don’t have a concrete window, but at least Netflix isn’t keeping quiet. One of the company’s employees stated on Reddit that they would be stupid to ignore the Android userbase considering how much it’s blown up in the first half of the year (More on that here, here, here, here, and here.)
I just know we’re actively hiring Android devs. I wish I knew more about a timeframe for you. Good things come to those who wait. Netflix is essentially a tech company and with the way Android is blowing up it would be stupid of us to ignore that.
Good things come to those who wait, indeed. Android users have proven to be a patient bunch when it comes to the big players bringing their apps to our side of the pond, and as long as you deliver the goods, their excitement alone will pay you back in dividends.
