Netflix has announced a new “Downloads for You” feature for its iOS and Android applications. The company says that this feature will automatically download recommended TV shows or movies to your device “based on your tastes,” and it’s thankfully completely opt-in.
The feature is rolling out today on Android and will begin testing on iOS soon.
The company touts this feature as an expansion of its Smart Downloads feature, which it introduced three years ago as a way to automatically download the next episode of a TV show you’re watching. “Downloads for You” takes this to the next level.
Thanks to our premium list of Streaming servers, you can freely watch Netflix, Hulu, HBO Now, BBC iPlayer, and ESPN+ from any spot of the world. Download the app, connect to the particular Streaming server, and access your favorite TV shows. Anyway, when I try to go into netflix on my MacBook Pro (pretty new, newest software updates and stuff), it either won’t load because netflix “closed the connection”, “didn’t send a signal”, or it loads but it the homepage looks like none of the art was added, I can’t see the shows, and there are a ton of countries listed. It's no surprise that Netflix has become the premier platform for on-demand streaming, but finding the best titles can be tough. To help, we've put together roundups of the best movies and shows.
The announcement post explains:
Today we’re launching Downloads For You, a new feature that automatically downloads recommended shows or movies to your mobile device based on your tastes. Whether you’re a comedy fan stuck on a long car ride or a rom com lover without internet, we do the work so there is always something new waiting to entertain and delight you.
