If you're watching Netflix on an old TV, you may soon have to find another solution, as support for more than 60 models will end, meaning the app won't work on them anymore.
Apple, Samsung and Sony devices are primarily affected, according to the latest news, mainly models that are around 10 years or older. Of course, users change TVs less often than phones, for example, and they don't become obsolete as quickly, so many will certainly be affected by Netflix's decision.

The Netflix app will no longer work on the smart TVs listed as of this summer, but of course that doesn't mean you should ditch the devices. It is enough to have a smart TV that runs a streaming app (such as a Xiaomi TV Box), or you can even connect a laptop or other device to play.
