Why is netflix a system app?

Because it's preloaded. Samsung inks partnership on a periodic basis to get partners to preload their junk. Fan-hated partnerships include preloading the whole Facebook suite of battery-and-privacy-draining bloatware.

i also noticed it's available or preloaded on my tab s6.

my tab s4 cannot find netflix on the playstore.

this has got to be one solid partnership....

Hi oooOmitoOooo,

As mentioned by CHMultimedia, some apps are pre-installed due to the collaboration with app companies and they cannot be uninstalled. However, they can be disabled in the application settings.
