Watch Later Tidy for Netflix

Pick something to watch: Netflix My List with IMDb ratings, filters, custom playlists, hidden genres and bulk remove.

Netflix gives you one list. Everything you ever meant to watch, in an order you did not choose, with no folders, no search inside it, and no way to remove more than one thing at a time. So it grows. And on the night you actually want to watch something, you scroll it and give up. Watch Later Tidy for Netflix puts a real dashboard over that list. Open Netflix, press Alt+L. WHAT YOU GET Every title as a card that carries the IMDb rating, the runtime, the year, the genre and the maturity rating — the things you need in order to choose, which Netflix will not show you until you have clicked in. Sort by IMDb rating, runtime, year, title or type. Filter by genre, type, IMDb rating or runtime, and by whether you have already watched it — for films and for shows. A breakdown of your list by genre, biggest first. Click one to see only those. Custom playlists. Tonight. Under 90 minutes. With the kids. As many as you want, up to 50 per Netflix profile with 500 titles in each. Netflix has never offered these. Search Netflix by title, actor or director without leaving the dashboard, and browse more than a hundred categories Netflix keeps out of its own genre picker — Mockumentaries, Satanic Stories, and a great many more. Add anything you find to My List, or straight into a playlist without touching My List at all. Rest the pointer on any result and a panel opens beside it with the synopsis, the cast, the director and the genres. Bulk remove: tick as many titles as you like and clear them in one run, with a confirm that names the count and a receipt when it is done. Pin the ones you actually mean to watch, so nothing takes them out by accident. Export the whole list, or just what you filtered down to, as CSV or JSON. THREE TABS 1. My List — sync, sort, filter, the genre breakdown, bulk remove, export. 2. Search and browse — Netflix's catalogue, including the hidden categories. 3. Playlists — the folders Netflix never built. GETTING STARTED 1. Add it to Chrome. It is free and there is no account to make. 2. Open Netflix and press Alt+L, from any browse page, on any profile. The toolbar button does the same thing. 3. Press Sync, once. It reads your list and your watch state and keeps them. Every time you open the dashboard after that it opens instantly and asks Netflix for nothing. NEW IN v0.2.0 - Sort by IMDb rating inside a category, and sort search results: Netflix's order, A–Z, Z–A or IMDb rating. - IMDb ratings for more of your titles, including this year's releases that had none. A season IMDb files under its series shows the series' rating, marked "all seasons". - Import. Bring a My List or playlist export into My List, or your playlists into another browser such as Brave — Import only ever adds. Drop the file on the dashboard, or use the Import button. - Export your playlists to one file, choosing which ones go in. - Copy or move titles from one playlist to another. - A filter box on the hidden-categories menu, which holds more than a hundred of them. - A category opened from a hover panel now has a chip you can close. - Menus that no longer run off the bottom of a laptop screen. - A usage report of counts, never of titles or searches — see Privacy below. PRIVACY There is no account and no sign-in. Your list, your watch state, your searches and your playlists stay in your browser. From version 0.2.0 the extension sends tidywl.com a usage report: a random install id and lifetime counts — titles removed and added, searches run, days the dashboard was opened, the size of your My List, and the like. Never a title, a search term, a category or a profile. It is sent only when a count has changed, and records untouched for 12 months are deleted. Four other requests leave your browser, and none of them says anything about you: - A public settings file from tidywl.com. Every install receives the same one. - IMDb's public daily ratings file, which is kept in your browser for twelve hours at a time. - Netflix's numeric title ids, sent to Wikidata to find the matching IMDb id — and, for a title its id cannot find, the title's name, to search for it instead. No account, no identifier of any kind, and nothing that says which requests came from the same person. - For a title Wikidata cannot match at all, usually a recent release, its name, sent to IMDb's search. No cookies and no identifier go with it. The full policy lists every request, every stored key, and why each permission is asked for: https://tidywl.com/netflix/privacy/ WHAT IT IS NOT It does not download, record or decrypt video. Netflix playback is never touched anywhere in it. It does not ask for a Netflix password, an API key, or a sign-in of any kind. It works through the Netflix session you are already signed in with, on your own account. It runs on netflix.com and nowhere else. GOOD TO KNOW - Chrome on a computer. No Chrome extension can run on Chrome for Android, so there is no phone version. - Everything is stored per Netflix profile. The kids profile never sees your playlists and neither can overwrite the other. - Playlists travel to your other signed-in Chrome browsers through Chrome's own sync — through Google, not through us. We have no copy. - To move playlists or My List anywhere Chrome sync does not reach — another browser, another account — export them to a file and import it on the other side. The file stays on your computer. - Uninstalling removes everything it stored in that browser. - Removing a title from My List here removes it from Netflix, everywhere, because it is the same list on Netflix's side.
