In simpler terms, this encrypts the contents and only the users who have the
right key could decrypt it. If you are using your device without any
modifications, then you wouldn’t have to get into all these technicalities. The
issue begins to arise for custom ROM and rooted users as well as for those
devices that have been shipped from China to another non-supported region. In
all these scenarios, your device wouldn’t be Play Store/Play Protect certified
which will result in your ability to get hold of these DRM-protected contents.

When it comes to Netflix, there could be quite a few issues. For starters, the
Widevine L1 certification will be degraded to L3 as a result of which you will
only be able to stream contents in SD (480P) as opposed to Full HD (1080p). Then
if your device already came with Netflix pre-installed, then you wouldn’t be
able to update or access it via the Play Store as it will show the following
error- This app isn’t compatible with your device anymore error. So is there a
fix for this? Well, there do exist a couple of workarounds that might help you
mitigate this problem. Let’s check them out.


FIX NETFLIX THIS APP ISN’T COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR DEVICE ANYMORE#

Do note that there’s no universal fix as such. You will have to try out each of
the below-mentioned workarounds and see which one works best in your favor. So
with that in mind, let’s get started.


FIX 1: SIDELOAD NETFLIX APK#

Whenever you aren’t able to access any app via the Play Store, then sideloading
it is the perfect route to take. And the same applies in this case as well. So
download the Netflix APK file from a trusted third-party site, enable
Installation from Unknown Sources (if asked) and then proceed ahead to install
it just as you do so for any other app.

Do note that you will have to take this manual route every time you wish to
update the app. But that’s a small price to pay if it helps in resolving the
This app isn’t compatible with your device anymore Netflix error.


FIX 2: REINSTALL NETFLIX VIA ADB#

Some users aren’t able to even sideload the app, let alone update it. The reason
for that is their devices already came with Netflix installed. Since there is
already an instance of the buggy Netflix present, the sideloading process isn’t
able to proceed ahead. If we talk about Play Store, well still it shows the
aforementioned error and hence users are left in a lurch. Moreover, since it
comes as a pre-installed app, the device will treat it as a system app hence you
wouldn’t be able to uninstall it the normal way. This is where the ADB Commands
will come in handy. So without any further delay, let’s put it to the test to
resolve this issue. Given below are short and direct instructions, for a more
comprehensive tutorial on the same, do check out our guide on How to
Remove/Uninstall Bloatware Apps from Android via ADB.


FIX 3: DOWNGRADE NETFLIX TO AN OLD VERSION#

A couple of months back, the Netflix app started showing the aforementioned
error on Lenovo P11 and P12 series tablets. Upon further investigating the
issue, we found that it was due to an underlying code change in the latest
version of the app, and downgrading it to an earlier build did manage to resolve
the issue. While it is mostly a cat and mouse game and not a permanent fix, even
a permanent respite at this point in time was welcomed by the users. So let’s
perform a downgrade and test out the results.


FIX 4: FOR CUSTOM ROMS#

If you are using a custom ROM, then there’s every possibility that the ROM’s
developer hasn’t requested the Google Play Store for certification or that his
certification request wasn’t approved. So what could the end-user do in such a
case? Well, there are two different approaches- either revert to stock (which
most of you wouldn’t want to do) or root your custom ROM.

If you revert to stock firmware, the Netflix app will be up and running again.
On the other hand, if you root your custom ROM, then you will be able to hide
root from Netflix via Magisk Deny List, as explained in our next fix below. So
take either of the two approaches and that should help you fix the This app
isn’t compatible with your device anymore error in Netflix.


FIX 5: HIDE ROOT FROM NETFLIX VIA MAGISK#

If your device is rooted, then none of the aforementioned methods would be able
to come in handy. The first and only approach for a rooted device is to hide the
root from Netflix and Google Play Services using Magisk’s Deny List. Along with
that, your device should also pass the Safety Net. All this has been explained
in this guide, do check it out: How to Hide Root from Apps via Magisk DenyList.

That’s it. These were the five different methods to fix the This app isn’t
compatible with your device anymore error on the Netflix Play Store page. Do let
us know in the comments which one worked out for you. Likewise, all your queries
