To ensure that you'll have access to Descriptive Video services on your iPhone, no matter the source, make sure that the Audio Description control is turned on. To do this, open settings, General, then accessibility. Down near the bottom, under the 5th heading Media, the second item down is the Audio Description control. The next time you access programming which includes a DVS track, the track will be selected for play.

Hello Chris,
How is the accessibility of Net Flicts on your iPhone? Are all the controls accessible including ability to select audio description?

I listen to movies through Netflix, but I've only ever done it with my iPhone and Android apps. I suspect you're talking about a computer and a web interface below.
