You need to be using an older version of iTunes.

  • How to download Netflix shows and movies on your phone. Netflix continues to make it easy to binge your favorite shows, wherever you are.
  • Actually, your assumption that the App Store refuses to provide a version of Netflix that works for this hardware isn't correct. Developers (in this case Netflix) decide what versions they keep available. Apple is moving to 64-bit apps, but that's not at play in your current scenario. I know for a fact Netflix still provides a version of its app for iOS 7, so in your case they've deemed iOS 5.
  • Dec 09, 2017  No I am sorry Netflix do not support downloads on the Mac OS. Instead the answer told you all the devices you CAN download content from Netflix with. Yes it answers the question, if you think about it, but it is over complicating a simple answer to a simple question.
  • Watch Netflix movies & TV shows online or stream right to your smart TV, game console, PC, Mac, mobile, tablet and more.

iTunes 12.7.x no longer supports apps.


You need to be using older iTunes 12.6.x versions of iTunes.

Nov 30, 2016  Netflix has introduced the ability to download certain movies and TV shows to its app for iPhone and iPad. This is great for when you're on the go and don't want to worry about streaming over a cellular network or buying in-flight internet access.


iTunes 12.6.4 here.




DO NOT download OR USE the latest version of iTunes (version 12.7.x) as there is no more support for saving apps in iTunes under the most recent versions.

If you have already downloaded the recent 12.7.x version of iTunes, NONE of what I have wriiten here in this post reply may work!


You will need to use an older iTunes version and once it is downloaded and installed on your computer, at launch, hold down the Opt/Alt key on your keyboard while launching this older iTunee version, so you can create a new Tunes library.


BEFORE DOING the IMMEDIATELY ABOVE, if you use iTunes and iTunes 12.7.x on a computer and already have an iTunes Library, you will need to find the iTunes Library folder on your computer and, temporarily, move/copy this folder to another location so you do not accidentally write over your existing current iTunes library.

Then, back on your iPad, you can try to download the latest app from the iOS App Store and if the developer/s has/have left an older, compatible version of their app/s on Apple's app servers, then you will receive a small window pop-up prompt that states that there is an older version of the app that is compatible with your device. Would you like to download this version now.

Tap the OK button just below the prompt to start the downloading of the older app version to your iPad.



If you are successful in getting apps on this iPad, consider looking for more “up to date”, third party iOS web browsers for that version of iOS.

Some third party web browser developers supported their web browser on iOS for a long time and are more up to date than that iOS 9.3.5 version of the Safari Web Browser.


Here are some third party iOS web browsers that may still have older versions that are STILL supported on iOS 9.3.5.


Aloha Web browser

Perfect Web browser

Dolphin Web browser

iCab Mobile Web browser

Maven Web Browser

Opera Web browser

Maxthon Web browser



FYI,

Not every app you attempt to download will have an older, iOS 9.3.5 compatible version. For older apps that may still have an older iOS version available, the lowest compatible iOS version of an app is iOS 4.2.1.


Good Luck to You!

Finally, Netflix has introduced offline playback feature for its mobile apps – for the iPhone and iPad. There’s no offline support for desktop users. Given the risk of increased piracy, that makes sense. But this move means that you’ll be able to binge watch your new favorite Netflix find when you’re community on the metro or when you’re on a vacation, far from cheap/stable internet connection.

This is how the feature works. By default, downloads occur on Wi-Fi only.

How to Download a Movie or TV Episode on Netflix

Note: Not every movie and TV show is available for downloading offline (content from Disney for example). But there’s quite a lot of stufff here.

Step 1: Open the Netflix app and tap on the “Menu” button in the upper-left corner.

Step 2: Tap on “Available for Download“.

Step 3: This will give you a list of shows that this feature works with. Swipe around, find something you want to watch offline. Then tap on the movie or the show.

Step 4: When you’re in the detail view, you’ll find the “Download” button next to the movie preview or the episode preview. Tap on it to start the download.

How to Remove Downloaded Movie or TV Episode

Step 1: After tapping that “Menu” button, select “My Downloads“.

Step 2: Tap on the title of the show if it’s a TV show. Then tap “Edit“.

Step 3: Tap the “Delete button” (looks like an “x”) next to the title to delete.

How To Stop Downloads

If for some reason you’d like to pause or stop the download (you’re switching to another Wi-Fi network), it can be done from the same “My Downloads” section.

Next to the title you’ll see the familiar circular progress that shows how much of the download is done. Tap on it to pause the download.

How to Download in HD

By default, all the content is downloaded in Standard Definition (SD). On retina screens, especially the iPad, that might not be good enough. You can switch to HD from the settings.

Step 1: Tap on the “Menu” button and select “Settings“.

Step 2: Tap on “Download Video Quality“.

Step 3: Switch to “High“.

This of course means that you’ll end up using a lot more storage space. If you have an 16 or 32 GB device, it’s advisable to stay with SD.

Limitations of This Feature

When we tried downloading the same for the 3/4th time, after cancelling it, we got an error message saying we had reached the yearly limit for downloading the video for offline use (as you can see the screenshot below).

Also, you can’t download the same video on more than one devices (even if you have the two screen streaming plan). The other device will show an error code and won’t let you download the video till you’ve deleted it from the first device (using the steps we’ve shown you above).
