Want to find the exact Netflix download location to move your downloaded videos to other devices, in order to free up more storage space on your computer, iPhone, or Android devices?

This post will explain the possibility and detailed steps to find downloaded movies on Netflix on various devices. Read on to discover where Netflix downloads are stored and explore the bonus part to move the downloads from Netflix to any device you like.

What's New on Netflix?
  • The third season (the final one) of Squid Game will be released on Netflix on June 27. Download and watch them offline, follow this guide to save more space on your device!
  • Ransom Canyon, Unseen, The Gardener, The Four Seasons are playing for a limited run on Netflix now. Do not miss out!

Where Are Netflix Downloads Stored on Android?

Is it possible to find the Netflix download location on Android phones or tablets? Of course. To begin with, you should install the latest version of the Netflix app on your Android mobile devices and download some titles.

Detailed Steps to Change Download Location to SD Card

The Netflix app for an Android phone or tablet is embedded with a function to "choose external storage". To do it, follow these steps to find all Netflix downloads on Android mobile devices:

Step1
Open the Files app and go to Settings, then select Show hidden files

Step2
Navigate to Internal Storage

Find and tap "Internal Storage", and navigate to Android > data > com.netflix.mediaclient > files > Download > .of.

Step3
Look for folders with eight-digit random numbers inside

Just like the picture shows above, the Netflix downloads are stored in folders of such names.

However, it should be noted that you can only find the encrypted files on Android devices. Although they can be moved to other locations, the downloaded videos can only be played via the Netflix app.

Why Can't I Change the Netflix Download Location to SD Card on Android Devices?

Sometimes, you might fail to change the download location to the external SD Card directly through the Netflix app. But somehow, when you tap the option, it always reverts back to internal storage. Even after you reinstall the app, the problem still haunts you.

If you're troubled by this issue, please read on to fix it quickly with Developer Permission:

1. Enable Developer Options: Go to Settings > About phone > Build number, and tap it 7 times until you see a message saying "You are now a developer!"

2. Turn on USB Debugging: Go to Settings> Developer options > USB debugging, and turn it on.

3. Download ADB Tools on your Computer: See details in the Android Studio.

adb tool

4. Open Command Prompt on PC: Press the Windows key, type cmd, and select "Run as administrator".

5. Connect your Phone: Use a USB cable to connect your phone to your PC. Make sure your phone is in Meida Transfer (MTP) mode when you plug it in.

6. Navigate to ADB in Command Prompt: In the command prompt, go to the folder where you unzipped the ADB Platform Tools. Type cd ("cd" followed by a space) and then drag and drop the platform-tools folder into the command prompt window. Press Enter. It should look something like this: cd C:\Users\YourName\Downloads\platform-tools

7. Check if Your Phone is Connected: Type adb devices in the command prompt and press Enter. You should see a list of connected devices, and your phone should be listed.

8. Grant Netflix Permission: Now, you can type this exact command and press Enter: adb shell pm grant com.netflix.mediaclient android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

9. Check the Result: Open your Netflix app and try changing the download location again. It should work now.

This detailed guide is based on an answer from r/GalaxyTab on Reddit.

Where Are Netflix Downloads Stored on iPhone/iPad?

As we all know, Netflix allows users to download videos on mobile devices, including iPhone and iPad. In consideration of the limited internal storage space, can you change the Netflix download location on iPhone/iPad to free up more storage?

Unfortunately NO. All videos downloaded from Netflix are stored in the internal storage of your iPhone or iPad, which means that you can't get the files directly or transfer them to other locations.

Therefore, you can only find and watch the downloaded movies on Netflix through the official app, and when you delete the app, all data and downloads will be removed from your iPhone or iPad.

icloud

The best solution is to subscribe to iCloud and unlock more Cloud storage on your iPhone, or use KeepStreams to get the Netflix videos in MP4 files, and move them into external storage devices.

Where Are Netflix Downloads Stored on PC?

When the question "Where are Netflix downloads stored on PC?" jumps out, we assume that you're using a Windows PC, instead of a Mac or Linux PC. Because Netflix only provides its official app for Windows computers.

Now let's find out the default download location of Netflix and the method to change the output path on PCs. And since you're here, you may also be interested in the way to download Netflix videos on Mac.

Default Netflix Download Location

Netflix provides an official app for Windows PC and iOS and Android mobile devices. The app has a built-in download button and the whole process is set well in advance. So you must be confused by the problem of where to find Netflix downloads on a computer.

Is it possible to find the Netflix downloads stored on your computer? Of course, but they are stored as encrypted files with DRM protection. To find the downloaded movies on Netflix, follow these steps:

Step1
Show the Hidden Items

Navigate to This PC > Local Disk and click View > Show > Hidden items, in order to show the folder named "AppData".

Step2
Find Netflix Downloads in the Hidden Folder

Follow this path to find the videos downloaded in the Netflix app for Windows: C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Packages\4DF9E0F8.Netflix_mcm4njqhnhss8\LocalState\offlineInfo\downloads.

You can find all Netflix downloads here, but not in a compatible format. Because Netflix encrypts them to force you to play them using the app, in order to protect the copyright.

Note: Since May 2024, Netflix has stopped supporting downloads on Windows 10/11 PCs. Now you can only download movies on Netflix on Android, iPhone, and iPad.

KeepStreams can help you download Netflix on PC without Microsoft Store. If you still need to download Netflix shows on laptops, this tool is highly recommended.

Change the Netflix Download Location

Now we've learned where are Netflix downloads stored on PC. But if the local storage is full, how to change the download location? We can take advantage of the Windows function by following these steps:

Step1
Find Storage Settings

Click on the Windows icon and search for "Settings" and click it to open the following window. Search for "storage" in the settings window and click "Storage settings" in the results.

Step2
Click on "Where new content is saved" from the "Storage management" section
