Netflix on Ignite TV

With Ignite TVTM, you can see all of your Netflix content with all of your Ignite TV content, displayed together and fully integrated into the all-in-one voice search. But you can still open and use the Netflix App if you want to view only its offerings.

Access the Netflix app

The great thing about Ignite TV’s all-in-one search is that if you have a Netflix account, you can search for Netflix content without even entering the app. Simply use a voice command like “Netflix originals” or “Stranger Things,” and watch as results pulled from Netflix appear instantly.
But if you want to open the app itself, here’s how to do it:

With a voice command

  1. Press and hold the Mic button on your Ignite Voice Remote.
  2. Say, “Open Netflix,” or “Netflix.”
  3. The Netflix app should open instantly.

Without a voice command

  1. Press the Rogers button on your Ignite Voice Remote to open the main menu.
  2. Select Apps.
  3. Select Netflix.
  4. The Netflix app will open.
