How to Use Netflix’s Coming Soon Feature to Keep Track of Upcoming Shows and Movies

Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

Open an upcoming Netflix title, choose Remind Me, and Netflix will track it for you. Your saved titles appear in the Reminders You’ve Set row under My Netflix on supported TV and mobile layouts. When a title is released, it moves to My List; Netflix may also send an in-app notification or email.

Find Netflix’s upcoming titles

Netflix places unreleased programs in several discovery areas, and the label depends on your device and the current interface. Check these locations:

  • New & Popular, Latest, or New & Hot shortcuts, where available.
  • New on Netflix or Top 10 rows on the homepage.
  • Search results for a specific show or movie.

Netflix documents these discovery options in its guide to finding new shows and movies. On updated TVs, the former New & Popular shortcut may no longer appear; use homepage or title-page rows such as New on Netflix and Top 10 instead. On mobile, New & Hot can include Coming Soon, Everyone’s Watching, and Top 10 sections.

Set a reminder for a show or movie

  1. Open the title’s Netflix details page.
  2. Look for a future release date and select Remind Me.
  3. Confirm that the control changes to its selected state or check mark.

The control appears only when Netflix displays a future date and offers the feature for that title. Netflix’s official wording is: “On Netflix you may see future release dates for a TV show or movie with an option to Remind Me.”

What happens when the title is released?

After release, the title appears in My List. Netflix says you may also receive a Netflix notification and an email, but a particular alert channel is not guaranteed. Treat My Netflix, the reminder row, and My List as the dependable places to check.

Why a date or reminder can change

Release dates are not permanent. Netflix says dates may change because of video-production delays or because licensing contracts are still being finalized. If a date changes, Netflix removes the title from the upcoming schedule until a new date is identified; a title you previously marked can appear in My List after release. See Netflix’s reminder help page for this policy.

Understand Netflix release times

There is no single general release schedule. Netflix originals typically become available globally at 12:00 a.m. Pacific Time. A title that is not an original in your country typically launches at 12:00 a.m. local time. Weekly releases and programs following their original broadcast schedule can use different timing. Netflix explains these exceptions in When does Netflix release new TV shows and movies?.

Troubleshoot missing notifications

iPhone or iPad

Notification permission is controlled in the device’s Settings app. If Netflix reminders are not appearing, open iOS or iPadOS notification settings, find Netflix, and allow notifications.
