You can download select TV shows and movies on the Netflix app to watch offline later. Watching downloaded titles offline does not count toward the concurrent streaming limit of your plan.
This changes everything! Also, there's a new in-app category "Available for Download" that makes downloadable content easy to find.

Amazon Prime Video has had offline viewing for a while and while I don't use it often, when I do need it, it has been very helpful and pretty easy to use.
After taking a quick look at Netflix's updated app, it looks just as easy. Not all videos can be downloaded but they do have an "Available for Download" section so that helps.

This is great for holiday traveling! Now I get to catch up on some proper TV when I fly.

Awesome. Now just give us PIP on our phones and or background audio streaming.
Now you can use https://FlixSearch.io to check if a movie or tv show is available in your country

What took so long!? All those flights I've taken in the past eight years!! I could have used this one so much sooner.

Netflix offline viewing = family road trip heaven!

Doesn't work for any of the Marvel original series, like Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Daredevil. No Arrested Development or Gilmore Girls either. I wonder what deals are preventing these shows from being downloaded.

@delitzer I wasn't surprised to see the Disney-owned content (e.g., Marvel, Star Wars, ESPN, Pixar) not be available for download at the onset, even with Netflix's new deal with them. ESPN's 30 for 30 films can't be downloaded, either.

My most wanted feature would actually be 'a local content browser' :)
Imagine that you could ditch plex/xbmc etc.
One interface to rule them all!
