RECKON you're a real Netflix pro? We've unearthed some hidden shortcuts that could help you up your game.

Both the mobile and desktop versions of Netflix have some secret controls you may not have realised even exist.

If you're binge-watching on a laptop or computer, it can be a bit of a pain to have to faff around with your mouse or trackpad.

Fortunately Netflix has built in a number of keyboard shortcuts that can get jobs done more quickly.

Here's a list of the most useful shortcuts:

Spacebar – toggle play / pause
Enter – toggle play / pause
F – full screen
Esc – exit full screen
Left Arrow – rewind 10 seconds
Right Arrow – fast-forward 10 seconds
Up arrow – volume up
Down arrow – volume down
M – mute toggle
Shift-Alt-Left Click – adjust the streaming bitrate (to improve or reduce the quality of the video)

Netflix also recently updated its mobile app, redesigning the controls.

It's now easier to navigate the app – and through a movie, if you know how.

Normally if you want to fast-forward through a TV show or movie, you have to tap the screen and then drag the time-bar up hit the skip icons.

But there's now a faster way to skip.

All you need to do is double-tap on the screen – on the left for a 10-second rewind or on the right for a 10-second fast-forward.

This makes it quicker and easier to skip (or backtrack) through something you're watching.

And you can also make the video full screen by doing a pinching-out motion.
