Netflix testing sleep time feature on Android

SAN FRANCISCO: Video-streaming platform Netflix is testing a new feature on Android devices globally that would allow subscribers to set a timer for their viewing period. According to The Verge, af ter the selected time limit comes to an end, the Netflix app would stop. The new feature lets people choose between four timer settings – 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes or end of whatever people are watching. This should in theory help conserve batter y life on Android devices while also ensuring that episodes don’t continue to auto-play, the report said on Friday.
