by Brian Fisher • • Proven solutions

As one of the most famous video sites, Netflix offers the mail-based movie rental service named "Watch Now" to let subscribes watch movies and TV shows anytime on the computers, phones, tablets and more. Yes, you have to be the subscriber of Netflix then you are allowed to access to the Netflix movies and TV shows. And to watch Netflix on your Android phone or tablet, you have two options:

Option 1. Watch Downloaded Netflix Movies on Your Android Devices

Actually Netflix itself only provides streaming movies for customers, no video downloads, but if you used some third party video downloader in the market and have downloaded some Netflix movies without DRM protection on your Mac, you can transfer these Netflix to Android device and watch them at anywhere and anytime, no dead line you should be worried about. But to watch these Netflix movies on your Android tablet or phone, there are some notices you must know: video format and other video settings including video bit rate, resolution and more for getting the perfect view on your device. Android phones and tablets normally have their own requirements in video format and resolution etc. due to the different manufacturers and Protecting Format Rights.

Netflix movies, in other ways, are saved in MP4, WMV and more with DRM when streaming via Netflix app. And if you use 3rd-party video downloader to download Netflix movies, different downloaders use different formats to save these downloads. For example, if your Netflix downloader saved the online movie as FLV videos, you’d better convert the downloaded Netflix to Android compatible formats first. Then you can't miss UniConverter, which enables you to download and convert Netflix movies for playing on Android phones or tablets.
