Netflix allows downloads for offline viewing

The new feature is included in all plans

Netflix members worldwide have been told they can now download in addition to stream great series and films at no extra cost.

Eddy Wu, director of product innovation, said in a Netflix statement yesterday:

While many members enjoy watching Netflix at home, we’ve often heard they also want to continue their Stranger Things binge while on airplanes and other places where Internet is expensive or limited. Just click the download button on the details page for a film or TV series and you can watch it later without an internet connection.

Many of your favourite streaming series and movies are already available for download, with more on the way, so there is plenty of content available for those times when you are offline. For example, Orange is The New Black, Narcos and The Crown are available for download today.

The new feature is included in all plans and available for phones and tablets on Android and iOS.
