    Netflixs upcoming HDR toggle might save your movie experience (APK teardown)

    • Netflix for Android could gain an HDR toggle, according to an Android Authority teardown.
    • This would allow you to switch between HDR and SDR video playback on the service.
    • There are several potential benefits to disabling HDR video playback.



    Netflix has long offered HDR support on Android phones, giving you a more immersive viewing experience for supported content. What if you don’t want HDR on your device, though? Well, you couldn’t disable this feature up until now. But that could change in a future version of Netflix for Android.


    Android Authority and leaker AssembleDebug dug into a recent version of the Netflix app for Android (version 8.117.0 build 3 50695 beta), discovering evidence of an HDR toggle as an experimental setting. This would allow users to choose between an HDR and SDR stream when watching content on their Android devices.
