November 15, 2011 | In: Android, ipad, tablets

Man, apparently November is the month for user interface facelifts.  With YouTube slowly debuting their new UI, and now Netflix showing off their latest Android Tablet UI, who knows what may be next.  Well, I guess we do.  iPad users can expect a new Netflix interface coming up pronto.

Netflix has been a busy beaver making this new official redesigned user interface just for you beloved Android tablet lovers.  According to the company the updates “makes browsing and instantly watching unlimited TV shows and movies streaming from Netflix better than ever.”

The new look provides multiple rows of titles with larger artwork to scroll through, with Neil Hunt, chief product officer at Netflix, noting that the company has seen a “threefold increase in how long Netflix members are watching on their tablets.” As of today, interested consumers can simply update their Netflix app in the Android Market, while iPad users are being asked to wait “a few weeks,” after which the new tablet experience will be dubbed Tabster and led on Twitter by a 17-year old methamphetamine addict.
