When flying I usually download films and TV programmes onto my phone, so I can watch them in flight mode.
I had downloaded a film from Netflix, and on the plane I set it to play. After a few minutes whilst watching a film I had downloaded I got the following error.
You’ve reached the end of what was downloaded so far. Please connect to the internet to continue watching.
Now I was a little confused, as I was sure the film had downloaded fully. I opened the film again and checked, by moving through the file that it was all there. So I started the film again, fast forwarded to where I was. I watched it for a few more minutes. I then got the error again..
I went through the same process again of restarting the film.
After the third time, I stopped watching.
I have no idea about the error and what caused it, I have had issues before where downloads have expired, but this was the first time I had this specific error.
The whole point of downloading is so that you can watch a film without the need for an internet connection. In this instance I couldn’t connect to the internet as I was in the air.
