Netflix has a series of hidden codes that allow users to access specific content categories by entering them into the platform’s search bar. One of these codes is 11881, which reveals a selection of romantic movies with mature themes. Titles in this category include 365 Days, The Price of Pleasure, and The Girl Next Door.
These codes offer users the opportunity to explore content that may not be visible through general recommendations, enabling a more personalised and diverse viewing experience. To use them, simply type the code into Netflix’s search bar, and the corresponding category will be displayed. This tool is particularly helpful for discovering movies or series that are hard to find through standard searches.

Each code corresponds to a specific category or subcategory, grouping films and series based on genre, theme, language, actors, and other criteria. Over time, curious users discovered how to utilise these codes to directly access niche categories.

Netflix Pricing Updates
Netflix recently announced subscription price increases in the United States, Canada, Portugal, and Argentina, effective from the next billing cycle. In the U.S., the ad-supported plan will rise from $6.99 to $7.99 per month, the standard ad-free plan from $15.49 to $17.99, and the premium plan from $22.99 to $24.99 monthly.
This decision aligns with Netflix’s strategy to continue investing in programming and enhancing user experience. In a statement to investors, the company explained, “As we continue to invest in programming and deliver more value to our members, we occasionally ask them to contribute a bit more so we can reinvest and keep improving Netflix.”
Despite this increase, Netflix experienced significant growth, adding 19 million new users in the last quarter and reaching a total of 300 million subscribers globally. The platform’s pricing adjustments reflect efforts to maintain its competitive edge while exploring new revenue sources, such as the recently introduced ad-supported plan.
