The new feature, announced today (Nov. 30) and available now via an update to
its iOS and Androidapps, means you can fill your tablet or smartphone
with things to watch during your commute, flights and other situations where
streaming high-res video doesn't work well.
The majority of the programs available to save for
offline viewing are Netflix Originals such as Stranger Things, Orange is the
New Black and Master of None. The non-Netflix Original content available to
stream ranges from TV shows such as The Office and Friday Night Lights and
films such as Moonrise Kingdom, Love Actually and Eternal Sunshine of the
Spotless Mind.
To see everything that's available to save for
offline, tap the menu button at the top left cornerand select
Available for Download. Saving a video for later is rather simple, as you just
need to navigate to content and tap the Download button.
Users don't need to worry about any additional fees for
downloaded video, as this option is available at no extra cost to all streaming
subscribers, no matter their plan. We hope Netflix keeps it that way.
The addition of offline streaming puts Netflix on par with
competitors including Amazon Instant Video, Hulu and Vudu, as well as YouTube
Red. It also gives device owners a reason to think about buying a
higher capacity tablet or smartphone when it comes time to upgrade.
