Yes, you can watch rented movies offline on Apple TV, but there are a few conditions:
1. Offline Viewing on Apple TV: While Apple TV itself doesn’t have the ability to download movies for offline viewing directly (like an iPhone or iPad), you can rent movies on your Apple TV, and they will be available to stream as long as your device is connected to the internet.
2. Downloading on iPhone/iPad: If you rent a movie through Apple TV or the Apple TV app, you can download it on your iPhone or iPad and then watch it offline. This is done via the Apple TV app, which supports downloading rented movies to mobile devices for offline viewing.
3. Time Limit: Rented movies typically come with a viewing window. Once you start watching, you usually have 48 hours to finish the movie before the rental expires. Be sure to download the movie well in advance of your intended offline viewing time.
4. Rental Expiration: Even if you download the movie, you will need to make sure it’s within the rental period. After the rental period expires, the movie will no longer be available to watch offline or online.
In summary, you cannot directly download rented movies for offline viewing on Apple TV itself, but you can use an iPhone or iPad to download the movie and watch it offline before the rental period expires.
