You can now ask Cortana to search for Netflix shows on Windows 10

Netflix has launched an all-new universal Windows 10 app so you can now binge-watch your favorite shows on its network without firing up your browser.

The app currently works with PCs and tablets, and will soon support phones. It offers a revamped Browse experience that supports gestures, so you can quickly scroll or swipe vertically through categories and horizontally through items in a category.

You can also invoke Cortana to search for content using your voice. Commands like “Cortana, launch Netflix” or “Netflix, find ‘House of Cards,’” will launch the app instantly from your desktop.

Of course, it’s only available in the countries where Netflix operates. The company says it’s working to introduce other features as well as support for phones in the near future.
