Encounter with any confusion on downloading Netflix movies/shows to iDevices? Grasp these FAQs to solve your concern!

Q1: Can I Download Netflix Shows on Mac?

Unfortunately, there is no Mac version of the Netflix App for the time being, so you can only choose to use browsers, like Safari or Google Chrome, to watch Netflix videos online, but not available to save them as local files.

First, your iPad model is too old to support the latest version of the Netflix App, so you won't be able to use the full features. Or, your Netflix App version is old, and has not been updated to the latest version, so you can't use the latest features fully either.

The solution to this problem is simple. If it's with the Netflix App version, just enter the App Store and update it to the latest version. But if it's related to your iPad model, you might want to consider getting a newer iPad to be compatible with the latest Netflix App. Alternatively, you can use MovPilot Netflix Video Downloader to download your favorite Netflix videos on your computer, and then use the method shown above in Part 2 to transfer the downloaded local files to your iPad for unlimited watching.
