Being part of a long flight is one of the possible scenarios when you lack internet speed to watch your favorite movies on Netflix, Apple TV+, Amazon Prime Video, or another streaming service. Suddenly, getting your smartphone’s or your laptop’s storage space occupied with your favorite movies or TV shows sounds like a great idea, but how exactly can you do it?
Luckily, we’re here to shed light on the conundrum by explaining the exact steps of how to download your favorite movies from platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and more. Anybody can learn how to do it, so don’t you worry!
Amazon Prime Video
If you want to download movies and TV shows from Amazon Prime Video, you first need to grab the Prime Video app. Don’t worry, as the software is compatible with Android phones, iPhones, macOS, and Windows PCs. Alternatively, you can use a Fire tablet.
Once you’re done with the preliminary steps, you need to head over to the movie or TV show you want to watch offline. Just tap on the download button that appears on top of the title you wish to download.
Disney+
You need a Disney+ Premium, Legacy Disney Bundle, or Disney Bundle Trio Premium account to download your favorite content from Disney+. The first step is to head over to the Details page and select the Download button. When the download finishes, a device icon with a checkmark will show up.
However, you need to keep in mind that you need to connect to the internet at least once every 30 days to watch downloaded content on Disney+.
Hulu
If you want to download movies or TV shows from Hulu to watch them offline, you need the Hulu (No Ads) plan. In the case of movies, you need to find the download icon, while for TV shows, what you have to do is select the download icon that appears next to specific episodes.
You also need to head over to the Downloads tab to watch later. Hulu allows you to watch any content you download for a period of up to 30 days.
Paramount+
To download content from Paramount+ and enjoy it without being connected to the internet, you need a Paramount+ with a Showtime plan.
The first step is to tap the download option that appears next to a movie or TV show subscription. The content you download will remain in your library for about a month.
Netflix
You need to opt for either the Standard or Premium plan if you want to download content from Netflix. From that point, all you need to do is select any movie or TV show you want and hit the Download button that appears on top of the titles.
The ‘Available for Download’ option that appears on the Categories area from the Home page can help you out by revealing content that’s available for download.
Apple TV+
Apple TV+ also hosts an impressive collection of movies and TV shows, and downloading them is not difficult at all. You just need to head over to the TV show you need to download and select the three-dot menu that appears next to the episode name. Ultimately, hit the Download button.
When it comes to movies, you have to find the downward-facing arrow that appears in the top right area.
The good news is that it’s not necessary to use a third-party app to download your favorite movies and TV shows from popular streaming platforms.
