Netflix has finally added the smart download feature to its iOS apps after debuting it for Android in July past year. The feature only kicks in when a device is connected to a Wi-Fi network.
The Smart Download feature automatically delete episodes you have watched. The intent is not to fill up your iPhone or iPad.
Just so there's no confusion, this is only for TV episodes. The app then also deletes the previous episode so you're not constantly filling up your data card with already viewed content.
Back in June of a year ago, Netflix debuted a new feature called "Smart Downloads".
As Netflix offline viewing eats up a good chunk of a device's local storage, turning on the Smart Downloads feature helps manage what needs to be deleted before downloading the next one so users won't have to manually go over the list of movies or episodes, therefore saving time and device storage. To do this, select the Menu icon and then "App Settings".

Netflix's Smart Downloads feature is ideal for those on the go, like anyone who often rides on underground trains. "The feature is one more way we're making it easier for Netflix fans to take the stories they love wherever they go", said Netflix. This is an automatic download feature, sort of removing the manual behavior of the download feature for some content available on the platform. This is probably why Netflix introduced the feature on Android first. As for Netflix, the company wants you to get access to your favorite content more easily.
But better late than never, as Netflix has announced today it is finally launching Smart Downloads for iOS devices. In a statement to The Los Angeles Times, the company confirmed it was testing the feature.
"The faster our members can get to the next episode of their favorite stories, the better".
