So perhaps Netflix doesn’t view having a Mac app as important. Why is this something Netflix hasn’t yet considered especially now that they needn’t build something from the ground up? And I know not many people watch movies on their laptop.
Wouldn’t it be great to save some movies offline and get to take advantage of the battery life to watch Netflix movies offline? Especially when travelling? Perhaps only the upcoming 16-inch MacBook will be able to beat it. My M1 Macbook Pro has the best battery life of any laptop currently. It’s crazy that even after the launch of macOS Big Sur, and after Apple switched to the M1 chip we still haven’t seen Netflix port their iPad app to M1 devices! Remember you can run iPhone and iPad apps on M1 devices, all it takes developers is a simple switch allowing their iPhone and iPad apps to be listed on the Mac App Store. Especially having travelled to an area where the internet isn’t very reliable. I wanted to pass time watching something and it dawned on me how convenient it would have been to just open the Netflix app and watch something I’d previously saved offline. Today, I sat down and wondered: Why the hell is there no Netflix for Mac App? I mean I’ve known this fact ever since I got my first MacBook, but it was even more evident today.
