How does the feature work?

The feature is most useful if any episode from the series or a film in the ecosystem of Netflix hasn’t been downloaded. Sadly, this is the reality that most of the users on Netflix face almost every day.

Why Wait? Now You Can Stream Your Favorites Before They’re Done Downloading

Netflix has introduced a new algorithm where once your device regains strong enough, it up to the users to finish the said download and resume watching. This is the best possible way by which you can avoid the surprise notices that the data hasn’t gone over the limits.
