Netflix offline releases improved download app feature for Android smartphones

NETFLIX will let you store lots more series and films to watch when you’re offline.

But only if you use an Android phone.

The streaming site has updated its app to let viewers store media on microSD cards.

This puts to bed any storage grumbles from Netflix fans.

They were granted the ability to save films to watch when not connected to the web – when commuting on the tube, for example – at the end of last year.

But there were complaints that people couldn’t save enough shows on their phone.

Not all Android handsets with a microSD card slot will work, according to Netflix.

But because Apple is unlikely to add a microSD slot anytime soon, Apple fans will be stuck with internal storage.
