        re: expiring titles... I believe this bug is now fixed but it will take another 24-48 hours for all countries to get sorted

          @admin Now that reduced the number of countries, There are some titles only for Latin América, e.g. "Yo soy Betty, la fea", a colombian soap opera. Also when a Movie or Series are available in one or more countries there are more countries which are not in the list. (This not applies filtering in Unique).

              Wow I sure appreciate all the effort you put into getting this information. I visit this website religiously every two days to check on the new and expiring of Argentina, Mexico and Brazil (I'm from Central America).
              Really hope you can reincorporate all the countries again, thank you!

                What happened to the site? It returns 404 Not Found.

                  Hi, thank you very much for this great website! It's my go-to website to check what's leaving Netflix, but now it seems Netflix has broken it.

                  For Hong Kong, none of the expiring titles are showing up, examples:
                  https://unogs.com/title/60034572 (18 May)
                  https://unogs.com/title/80185764 (19 May)
                  https://unogs.com/title/80100106 (22 May)

                  Hope this helps!

                    Hi! Why don't you scrape other websites that use Netflix API: Justwatch, Reelgood, Gowatchit, etc??

                      Some of them are likely experiencing the same issues. For example, JustWatch has added less new Netflix releases (excluding their listing of shows with new episodes) within a couple of days than InstantWatcher or Flixable. Reelgood doesn't even list what's new on a daily basis.

                        Don't forget flixwatch.co which handles an impressive 70 countries! If you have enough IDs, it's still possible. It seems having enough IDs is the key...

                          How do you know that they aren't experiencing the same issues?

                          This:
                          https://www.flixwatch.co/catalogue/netflix-usa/

                          ...doesn't list the latest additions that, for example, InstantWatcher does.

                            We are continuing try and figure out the best way to not get caught by the Netflix ban-hammer so please be patient.

                            As for 'scraping other sites', the entire reason uNoGS was created was because all the other information out there was limited, incorrect or not up to date. Before we would even consider pulling information from somewhere other than the source we would just stop operating.

                            Thanks for your support !

                              You're right, I don't know, I'm just guessing. The admin of UNOGs tried to get more Netflix IDs to solve the issue because IDs get banned for 2 days if they're overused. It's not the first time that UNOGs asks users for help in order to support more countries. On the other end, Flixwatch was able to handle twice more countries than UNOGs without ever asking for help. UNOGs didn't seem to know that it's very easy to get Netflix IDs, it costs only a few bucks. I may be wrong, but my assumption is that Flixwatch got Netflix IDs this way and that UNOGs could save its bussiness by doing the same. UNOGs could even expand beyond 35 countries!

                                regarding it being super easy to get Netflix ID's, I have yet to see evidence of this...

                                if you have some easy way to get additional ID's confirmed outside the EU please send us an email: admin@unogs.com

                                  I don't know if Flixwatch has issues or if the developper is just a bit sloppy. If you look what he says on reddit, you'll see that the guy hasn't much ambition for that website, it's just a portfolio to get a job in SEO.

                                    re Flixwatch, if they are actually updating 70 countries, I'm impressed...
                                    but its hard to tell because the website is a bit of ad-laden dumpster fire IMHO

                                      That actually sounds plausible!

                                          By the way, what are the repercussions for scraping? Do they just flat out permaban your account or is it a temporary ban or what? I might start scraping Czech Republic myself and give you the data, but it all depends...

                                            re: ban... they shut down the account for 48 hours, basically you just get 403's after you login
