Netflix - when a show is being take off can you download what you haven’t yet watched?

I read something on here about being able to do it. Does anyone know if you definitely can and how I would do it? Is it simple? Is there a limit to how much you can download? Thanks

I’ve just had a look at my downloads on Netflix on my iPad. The ones no longer available show as expired so I can’t watch them

As pp said, you can't download any content but there's no limit to streaming (as far as I know) and it is dead simple.

You can download episodes to your phone or tablet to watch offline, I don’t know if they’re still available once the show is taken off Netflix though I’m sorry.

AFAIK there's no limit to downloads although they do expire after a short time (possibly 30 days) very simple to download, just google, much easier than explaining

@Azadewow @MarginalGain You can download stuff from Netflix.

I had no idea! Live and learn.

My bad then, had no idea!

Hopefully you can. I don't live in the UK and the selection is better there, so whenever I visit, I download loads of stuff to watch when I travel back home. I can then watch it until it expires, as long as I turn off my WiFi and Internet...

If you can watch things that don't exist in your country then I would like to assume you can watch things that have been removed...

You need to install the app. It's very straightforward and the amount you can download is dictated by the storage capacity of your device.
