Netflix API Developer Blog

App Gallery Open for Developer Submissions

The soon-to-be-released Netflix App Gallery is now open for developer submissions!  You can create your entry for the gallery by going to the "My Account" page on the developer portal and then selecting the "My App Gallery Entry" link.

A couple items to note:

  1. We'll launch the Gallery to Netflix members when we feel we have a minimum list of applications.  We don't expect this to take that long given the number of apps out there.
  2. While the Entry details page says that the application description is limited to "100 chars or less", we'll support longer descriptions of up to 600 characters on the application detail page and show the first 200 characters of that description when your application will be shown in list views.  Note that you can supply a link from your app entry to a more complete application description, download link, etc.
  3. Reminder: each submission will be reviewed for Terms of Use compliance before it is published to the Gallery.

We're looking forward to promoting your applications to Netflix subscribers!  Please comment on this post using the link below if you have any questions or comments around submissions.

    I got an error on submission - alpha channels not allowed - application badge upload failed.

    Changed two .png's to .jpg's and submitted again - no error - but no success message either. Did submission work?

    Yes. The submission worked. We'll be fixing the page soon to show success message.

    I keep on getting this error: Screenshot must be 320x240 Application Screenshot Upload failed

    I've checked. My image is definitely 320x240. Help would be appreciated.

    Tnx!

    Weird. Thanks for the heads up, Cyrus. We'll take a look.

    Ok. Mike Cohen helped me track down the problem. It looks like you accept 240x320 images, not 320x240 images. That kinda sucks for iPhone developers like me since our apps are designed with a portrait aspect ratio, not a landscape aspect ratio. Could you please adjust your system to allow for both?

    Thanks!
