I haven't selected audio description yet.

Everything is accessible on the iPhone with one huge annoyance. You can 
only double tap an object if it's on the visible screen. You'll need to 
explore by touch and then do a double tap, hold and slide to get the 
object you want into focus. This may be resolved recently. I mostly use 
Android for Netflix now.

You don't have the above issue on Android. The only annoyance I have on 
Android is that you double tap the screen to bring up the in movie 
controls, and in Android they don't stay on the screen quite as long as 
they do on the iPhone.
