Can't install Netflix from Play Store (no root)

[Martin Collazos]

Hi guys, anyone can confirm that Netflix appears in play store?? in my search netflix is not showing, I'm on stock unlocked international, only with bootloader unlocked.

I tried to install Netflix from apkmirror and there is no problem, is working fine.

Regards

Does unlocked bootloader mess up with Google's DRM? If it does, then that's why it's not showing for you. I'm on an S8 and Netflix does show up and is listed as compatible with all my devices (none are rooted or have unlocked bootloaders, though).

Ah! So yeah, bootloader-unlocked phones are also flagged. Good to know! Because any other app that starts using Google's DRM system is going to start having the same issues on these devices.
