Phonandroid Netflix: How to download series and movies on your smartphone or PC?

Netflix fans, do you want to be able to watch series and movies from the catalog offline? To do this, all you have to do is download the episode or the feature film that interests you directly on the Netflix site or application. We explain how to do it. Follow the leader.

“While many subscribers enjoy watching Netflix at home, we know they also enjoy continuing to watch the latest episode of Stranger Things on airplanes or in other places where mobile internet is expensive,” explained Eddy Wu, director of product innovation at Netflix a few years ago.

Before downloading a Netflix series or film

To download a film or series from the Netflix catalogue, be aware that the possibility is only offered on certain operating systems. You are out of luck if you are using Mac/MacBook or Linux system. There is indeed no Netflix application on these platforms and it is not possible to record a Netflix video from the web version (from a browser). Here are the supported devices:

Please note that not all content is available for download. If a thread or series doesn't, it's because Netflix's licensing agreement doesn't allow it to be saved for offline viewing. The good news is that all original series and movies produced by Netflix are downloadable.
