Higher resolutions offer a better quality video, but take more space on your device. Tap “Save Offline” and you’ll be prompted to choose which resolution you want to download the video in. To download a video, open the YouTube app on an iPhone, iPad, or Android device and tap the menu button next to a video. YouTube offers this feature, but only if you pay for YouTube Red (which actually isn’t a bad deal if you use Google Play Music, which is included–you get both Google Play Music’s music library as well as YouTube Red for the same price you’d pay for Spotify or Apple Music.) You need a smartphone or a tablet–and not a Windows tablet. You can’t do this from the website, so you can’t do it on a laptop. This feature is only available in the Amazon Video apps for iOS, Android, and Amazon’s Fire OS. Find the movie or TV show you want to watch and tap the “Download” button to the right of it. Downloaded videos will appear in the “Downloads” section of the app later, so you can open the app and watch them–even without an Internet connection. Just download the app and sign in with your Amazon account.
The Amazon Video app available for iPhones and iPads, Android devices, and Amazon’s own Kindle Fires allows you to download videos to your device so you can watch them offline.
