While the app version was the one Netflix released on the day it made the announcement, all options related to downloading shows or movies for offline watching are not available.įirst thought that it might have something to do that I rooted the device, or that it was a server-side roll out of the feature. Yes, the shows and movies of the in-flight entertainment system may be nice, but what if you could watch your favorite show instead on your Android or iOS device?Īnyway, I tried the new Netflix app version and realized that it did not show the download button. I thought that this was a really cool option, considering that you could download shows or movies at home using Wi-Fi, to watch them elsewhere where the reception is not as good or not available at all.
