For years, Netflix subscribers have wanted a the option to randomly select something to watch instead of spending hours aimlessly scrolling through their library. Now the streaming service may end up giving the masses what they want.<\/p>\n

Netflix is currently testing a \u201cShuffle\u201d feature that will pick something for you to watch at random. However, it\u2019s not completely random, because it will pick something based on what you\u2019ve been watching and what you like. Find out more about the Netflix shuffle feature below.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tech Crunch noticed the testing of the Netflix shuffle feature after some users noticed \u201cShuffle Play\u201d button:<\/p>\n

Interesting new feature @netflix \u2026 but what kind of insane person just says, \u201cyolo, let\u2019s spin the Netflix wheel of fortune\u201d pic.twitter<\/a>.com\/6WDJrmd7pG<\/p>\n

As you can see, the button is one of the first things to greet users when they open the Netflix app<\/a>. It\u2019s situated right under the profile avatar so you can get to shuffling right away. However, this isn\u2019t the only way that users are seeing this feature. Other users might see a \u201cPlay Something\u201d option in their sidebar inside the Netflix app, as seen below.<\/p>\n

Lol Netflix now has a \u201cshuffle\u201d button. This is something I needed that I didn\u2019t even know I need. pic.twitter.com\/JEEsF65Bc0<\/p>\n

The above version of the Netflix shuffle feature was posted back in the middle of July, so clearly this is something that Netflix has been testing for a little while now. In fact, the company says that the profile button is the only version of shuffle that\u2019s actively being tested right now, so the other versions must have finished their testing phase.<\/p>\n

When selecting shuffle, users might see a movie they\u2019re currently watching, something that\u2019s saved in their list, or something that you\u2019ve already watched and given a thumbs up rating to. Netflix says that it\u2019s a feature that they hope will help members find something tailored to their interests in a much faster and efficient fashion. They compare the feature to the feeling of turning on the TV and seeing whatever is playing at that time.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no indication as to when this shuffle feature may be expanded to all users, but it likely depends on how the tests went, and which version was shown to be more used or more effective.<\/p>\n

Now is the part of this article where we\u2019ll push our hopes that Netflix will one day introduce playlists and allow users to shuffle through a collection of episodes from their favorite TV shows instead of just anything at random. How awesome would it be to have a playlist with episodes of The Office<\/em>, Parks and Recreation<\/em>, and 30 Rock<\/em>, and just hit shuffle to let it play through episodes as if it were a series<\/a> of reruns on TV? Netflix tried a variation of this when they tested a feature that let users choose a series from which to play a random episode, but it needs to take that one step further. At least Netflix is still trying new things to improve the user experience.<\/p>\n
