Finding content you like on Netflix is not complicated because from the main page we find many categories and recommendations. However, there are ways to locate much more specific content simply by writing a code in the search engine. The one from “10118” is just one example of many, and as I tell you, it’s the trick to finding superhero content.
How to find hidden categories on Netflix
Whether access via the web or via the Netflix app from the iPhone or another device, everything goes through opening the platform's search engine. Yes, the same one in which we generally write the title of the series or film that we want to watch. In this case, instead of text, we will write a numerical code.
There is a list of codes that provide access to specific content and involves writing these codes as is:

Bonus track: the tip to know if you can watch series and films with good quality
I didn't want to close this article without telling you about one of the most interesting and little-known features of Netflix: do a speed test. It is essential to know if we have a good connection, whether via Wi-Fi or mobile data. And there's no need to exit the app (at least at first).
- Open the “Netflix” app on your iPhone.
- Enter your profile and navigate to your account tab (bottom right).
- Open the drop-down menu at the top right.
- Now go to “Application Settings”.
- In the last section, click on “Internet Speed Test”.
Once this is done, a website will open in your browser with which automatically a connection test will be carried out to know how many Mbps you are traveling and, therefore, you will access Netflix streaming content.
