One of the best features of Netflix is the ability to download content directly to your iPad. This allows you to watch your favorite movies and shows offline—perfect for flights, commutes, or anywhere without Wi-Fi.
To watch your downloaded content, tap the "Downloads" tab (usually located at the bottom of the screen). You will see all your saved movies and episodes here.
Find a movie or TV show you want to download. Look for the Download icon (a downward-facing arrow) next to the title or episode.
