How to Change Netflix Profile Location to Access More Libraries

Netflix offers different libraries and content based on the country you are accessing it from. If you want to access Netflix libraries from other countries, here are some effective methods:

Use a VPN

The easiest way to change your Netflix location and access libraries from other countries is by using a Virtual Private Network (VPN). Here’s how:

  1. Sign up for a reliable VPN service like ExpressVPN or NordVPN. Make sure the VPN has servers in the country whose Netflix library you want to access.
  2. Install the VPN app on your device and connect to a server in your desired country. For example, connect to a US server if you want the US Netflix library.
  3. Launch Netflix. You should now see the library for the country you connected to via the VPN.

The advantage of using a VPN is that it hides your real location and IP address. Netflix will think you are accessing it from the country of the VPN server you connected to.

Use Smart DNS Proxies

Smart DNS proxies like Getflix and UnoTelly can also be used to change Netflix regions. Here are the steps:

  1. Sign up for a Smart DNS service.
  2. Configure the DNS settings on your device as per the instructions provided. This will route your Netflix traffic through the Smart DNS proxy servers.
  3. Launch Netflix and you should see the library of the country the DNS settings are configured for.

The benefit of Smart DNS over VPN is faster streaming speeds. However, it does not hide your IP address or encrypt traffic like a VPN does.

Clear Cookies and Cache

You can also try clearing your browser cookies and cache to make Netflix think you are accessing it from a new location:

  1. Close all browser windows.
  2. Open your browser settings and clear cookies and site data.
  3. Relaunch Netflix in an incognito/private browsing window.

This may allow you to temporarily access a different Netflix library. However, it is not a reliable method compared to using a VPN or Smart DNS.

Use the Netflix App

The Netflix app on your mobile device or TV box is designed to give you the library based on your device’s location.

So if you take your device abroad, launching the Netflix app should show you the library for the country you are visiting rather than your home country.

Tips for Accessing More Netflix Libraries

  • The US Netflix library has the maximum content available. Using a VPN or Smart DNS to access the US library opens up a huge catalog of shows and movies no matter where you are located.
  • Be careful not to violate Netflix’s Terms of Service. Using VPNs or proxies to access Netflix is not strictly illegal but against their terms.
  • Free VPNs often don’t work reliably with Netflix. It’s better to use a paid VPN service with dedicated US or international Netflix servers.
  • Test different VPN protocols if you face buffering issues. OpenVPN and IKEv2 generally offer the fastest speeds for streaming.
  • Smart DNS services only change your DNS and not your IP address. So they can sometimes work better with Netflix compared to VPNs.
