How to Download Shows and Movies from Hulu for Offline Viewing??

There are many amazing shows and movies on the Hulu platform. One thing that makes it different from Netflix is that it allows users to watch recently aired episodes. Whereas on Netflix, you can only watch the complete seasons of your favorite TV shows.

Here in this article, you will learn how to download movies and TV shows from Hulu for offline viewing. But first, you need to know the limitations of this feature.

Please ensure that you have a compatible device

Sadly, you can't download the movies and shows you like on your gaming console or PC. You can only download the media by going to the official mobile apps of Hulu.

We all know that Windows 10 has the Hulu app. However, it's different from the download club. To enjoy offline viewing, you need a smartphone, an Apple device, or an Amazon device

Go for a different plan if required

Now, you have a Hulu subscription and compatible device but you still can't see your favorite show or movie. If you have bought the basic plan, then you won't be able to download the show.  The download is only possible if you buy Hulu + Live TV subscription, Hulu (No ads) subscription, or Hulu (No ads) + Live TV subscription.

If you wish to take the benefit of offline viewing, then you must change plans. Below are the simple steps that you need to follow in order to download shows and movies from Hulu for offline viewing.

Step 1 : Launch Hulu on your internet browser. You will not be able to make changes to your account by using the mobile app.

Step 2 : Select the icon of "account" given at the upper right corner.

Step 3 : Now, go to the drop-down menu and choose Account.

Step 4 : Enter the password if required. 

Step 5 : Go to the option of Subscription panel and then choose the option of "Manage Plan".

Step 6 : Choose the Toggle given after the plans, which support downloads.

Step 7 : Now, select the button of "Review changes".
