How to download and save Netflix series to SD card

For some time now we have the option to download series and movies on our mobile phones to view this content without the need for an Internet connection.

Without a doubt, this function that allows us to download content to view it offline is an advantage, mainly because streaming consumes a large amount of data. So the savings is remarkable. Although this function also has a negative side. SD mobiles cannot take advantage of memory to store more series. But it is still a good way to watch our favorite series. Netflix does not allow us to download directly to the SD, although there are ways to do it. That is what we explain below.
