Netflix has now updated its iPhone app to take advantage of the new iPhone 5 screen. This is one of the first media apps that has been updated for the 16:9 ratio of the new iPhone and it looks and works great. Pair it with an Apple TV for some AirPlay Mirroring (and perhaps a U.S.-based VPN service) and you have yourself a pretty fantastic collection of modern movies and television shows for $7.99/month.
This update comes shortly after a revamp to the company’s iPhone and Android apps to put more emphasis on what you’re currently watching, and recommendations based on what you’ve recently seen.
You can update your Netflix for iOS in the App Store.
