Netflix offers different subscription plans, each offering a limited number of devices for downloading movies and series. The "Basic" plan allows you to download videos on just one phone or PC, while the "Standard HD" lets you download on two devices. The most expensive plan, "Premium Ultra HD", offers the feature on four devices. This goes for apps on all computers and cell phones, adding the different profiles saved in the account.
If this quantity is exceeded, an error message appears on the screen and prevents saving the media. The good news is that the user can resolve this quickly by the account settings: just remove any device from the management list and then download it with a new device. Find out in this tutorial how to resolve the device limit error on Netflix and unlock it.
