Here’s what you need to know about streaming Netflix content on your iOS device.
Netflix Australia have done well to offer one of the best video streaming services in Australia. Although they’re a little late to the market, people are impressed with the Netflix service. At the time of writing, the Netflix iOS application for Apple’s iPhone and iPad devices has been rated 4 1/2 stars over almost 500 reviews in the Apple Store. If you want to get among the action, here’s what you need to know about the Netflix apps for your iPhone and iPad, and watching Netflix on your Mac.
You need to have a Netflix subscription before you can login to the Netflix app. You can become a member by visiting netflix.com. Once you have a subscription, you can download the Netflix app from the Apple App Store. Search for Netflix directly within the App Store or you can find it through Google.
The first page after the login screen asks you who’s watching. This lets you split the audience between adults and kids if you’re concerned about mature content.
After you’ve selected a user, you can now search and stream movies and TV shows to your hearts content.
Have a look at the kids section if you have children. There are plenty of titles from Power Rangers to Pokemon, so youngsters are sure to find something that entertains them.
The Netflix app for iOS devices works well. Buffering is barely noticeable on the devices we tested (iPhone 4 and iPad mini). The app works well on home broadband connections streaming high definition content. For mobile devices Netflix reverts to low quality streaming, but people with a low data limit plan will find they go over their data limit using Netflix frequently. Keep an eye on your phone’s data usage if you’re using Netflix on a cellular network.
It’s really simple to stream your favourite TV shows and movies from your Mac laptop or desktop device. Just visit the Netflix website, netflix.com, login to your account and start streaming instantly.
