The app lacks the download feature, which allowed offline viewing, disappointing many users. Feedback has been largely negative, with complaints about the app's design and functionality. Netflix claims the app aims to provide a consistent experience, but the removal of offline viewing raises concerns about user satisfaction. The old version of the app will eventually stop working, forcing users to adapt to the new format.

Netflix’s Windows app takes huge step backwards in latest update

On July 25, Netflix released a new app for Windows on the Microsoft Store, transitioning from a standalone application to a web app powered by Microsoft Edge, which directs users to netflix.com. The update removed the downloads feature, eliminating the ability to save content for offline viewing. Critics have described the new app as "awful and pointless," and Netflix support confirmed that while the new version allows access to live events and ad-supported plans, it will not support downloads. Offline viewing remains available on supported mobile devices.
