How does it work?

How to download content on NOW?

To download your favorite content through the NOW application, just follow some simple steps:

Open the application on your device. If you do not have it, you will have to download it from the Google Play Store or App Store. As soon as you open the app, you can search for your favorite content via the homepage or by choosing an available category based on your subscription (Cinema, TV Series, Entertainment, Sport or Kids). In the Highlights category, on the other hand, there is a convenient selection of the most viewed contents, Sky Original productions and the latest news. Obviously, you can search directly and manually for the title of a movie, a TV series or a television program using the magnifying glass icon. If you do not find your content there could be two reasons: the first is that not all the titles on the platform are available for download, while the second is that some titles are subject to license limits and after some time are removed from the various catalogs. After pressing on the preview of the desired content, to start the download simply press the side button with the symbol of an arrow pointing downwards. In the case of a TV series, the one at the top right allows you to download entire seasons, the one next to the episode title, on the other hand, allows you to download only the episode in question. There is also the Add to My TV item which allows you to add the content to your favorites and download it later. Obviously, live streaming content cannot be downloaded. The titles are stored in the "My TV" section under "Download". The user can check the duration, the "weight" in terms of space occupied and also the percentage already downloaded.

What we recommend to download

NOW is an incredible source of content, but it could confuse users less experienced also because, at times, some tend to disappear at the end of the reproduction rights. Therefore, here is a short list of the contents that you absolutely must see and that, except in exceptional cases, should always be present on the streaming platform. Among the series, for example, there are Chernobyl, Diavoli, The New Pope, Euphoria, Big Little Lies, The Undoing, Gomorra, Watchmen, ZeroZeroZero, Westworld, His Dark Materials, The Staircase and Game of Thrones.

Among the films, however, we recommend The Color of Freedom, Ariaferma, Dune, Supernova, The Land of the Sons, Tolo Tolo, I Am Nobody, Freaks Out, The Card Collector, The Suicide Squad - Suicide Mission and A Promising Woman. If even these are not enough for you, every month we update you on the best new releases on Netflix both from a serial and cinematic point of view.
