Netflix has one profile, one history and one algorithm, and it assumes the person holding the remote is the only person in the room. That is the whole problem in one sentence.
From 65,380 swipes in What’s My Next, streaming on Netflix in both the US and the UK. Updated 21 October 2026. Availability differs per country, so the app checks yours.

Neither has the row that appears because you finished something three months ago and never went back. The more people share a profile, the further the recommendations drift from anyone in particular.
What’s My Next keeps a separate taste profile for each of you, built from what you swipe rather than from whatever happened to be left running. When you watch together you both swipe, and it shows you only the titles you both said yes to.

Start with the list above: the titles people in What’s My Next saved most that are on Netflix right now. For a pick that fits you, swipe a few titles in the app and it learns what you like.
You each swipe on your own phone. Only titles you both say yes to become a match, and one tap opens Netflix on that title.
