Disney Plus has been around for over a year, and many were hoping that they'd be able to watch content offline through this platform. However, when it comes to doing that over a laptop or mac, that's not going to happen. Mobile apps, however, are a different thing.

Disney Plus has made sure that only mobile users could download content to watch offline. The reasons for this decision are multiple.

First of all, they're trying to make sure that by encrypting content to only be playable through the Disney Plus app, they'll deter some of the folks who may be looking for an easy way to upload Disney Plus content to torrents.

No, you can't.

This feature is reserved for mobile users only and you can do it over Android and iOS smartphones and tablets, as well as Amazon Fire tablets.

As mentioned, you can only do this on mobile devices, so here's what you need to do:

There you go, now you have the content downloaded. Just make sure you did all this over WiFi and not mobile data.

Easily Watch All Downloaded Content

When you want to watch content you have to take a few steps.

Even if your Internet data is on, this will not consume any of your data since it's stored on your device.

Deleting Videos from Your Device

You can download how many videos you want to, as there's no limit to that. They expire and automatically get deleted after 30 days. If you want to clear out content before that, however, you can follow a few steps.

Please keep in mind that episodes have about 250 MB and movies over 750 MB, so make sure there's enough storage space left on your device.
