Netflix adds Android Wear support

Netflix announced on its blog on Tuesday a few updates to its Android app, including “Social Recommendations”. However, most exciting is the Android Wear support. Here is what Netflix said on their announcement:

First, we’re taking full advantage of the rich Android push notification capabilities to add images and action buttons that let you to watch, get more info, or thank your friend for a recommendation.

Second, for Android smartwatch users, we’ve created an Android Wear integration that alerts you when you’ve received a recommendation, and lets you watch, thank, play, or get more details on the show.

It seems as though this update is not reflected in the Play Store, so this is likely coming to a future update. We’ll keep an eye out for it!
