Do you have a 7 inch android tablet (nextbook) that you are having trouble viewing Netflix?
I did also, so there are a couple of solutions.....
I searched all over the internet, and couldn't find anything which was very frustrating and then I put my question on youtube and found a video:
How to fix Netflix (Android)
You can also do the same in the event that my solution does not work for you. What I found after watching the
video was that Netflix has updated their program to version 1.8.1 which will not work on my nextbook 7 inch android, so I followed the instructions on the video which are very good and downloaded*** Netflix 1.7.1 build 532.apk***
If you are really good with computers you can simply download the netflix 1.7.1 build 532.apk and then connect up your tablet to your laptop via usb and when you are prompted to turn on the USB storage, click on it. Now since you have downloaded the netflix 1.7.1 build 532.apk on your laptop, you can right click the file (after you find it, probably in downloads folder) and copy it. After you had clicked the "turn on USB storage" icon you should have seen the contents of the android 7 tablet displayed on your laptop. Now simply right click and paste the netflix 1.7.1 build 532.apk file into your download folder on your android tablet.
Now open up the filebrowser icon (you can get to this by going to the main page, and clicking up in the top right hand corner where you see the little dots). After opening the file browser, you will see your file. double click the file and follow the install instructions. You can also follow the video where I found the info by going to this address:

PS I realize that the video starts by showing how to install version 1.8.1 on your android but at the end of the video, you will notice that the gentleman doing the presentation suggests trying version 1.7.1 if the 1.8.1 does not work, and since my 7 inch android is the earlier version (nextbook), the version 1.7.1 was the one that I needed.
*Also,, after you get your netflix up and running remember what the original problem was... that you needed a different version of netflix,, and so if it works and then stops again,, make sure you delete the new version,, (hold down the icon for 2 seconds while using your other finger to press on the remove prompt at the top of the page). Do a shutdown on your tablet and reinstall the 1.7.1 version and it should stick and you should not have to do that any more.
good luck. | | | | | | |  | | | | |
