Netflix for Android app leaked, some features work Android fans may be excited to learn that a working .APK file of Netflix for Android is now available, although streaming movies will not work.
The leaks comes via the upcoming LG Revolution smartphone, which had its software dumped.

Netflix will be available to select Android 2.2+ phones in the future, but the company has not confirmed which devices.

For now, anyone with 2.2 can try the APK, which will let you login and manage you queue. Trying to stream will get you hit with an error code.

It is unclear why the error code exists, but most have speculated that the official app will require some DRM check to work.

You can get the app here: Netflix.apk
