Can I download and watch Peacock content offline?


Peacock Downloaded Content

Downloads are available for select content for Peacock Premium Plus subscribers on supported mobile and tablet devices. Peacock Premium Plus accounts can have a total of 25 pieces of content downloaded across all devices at any one time. The device must have sufficient storage or memory space to store the download(s).

Some pieces of content that are eligible to be downloaded can only be downloaded up to ten times per account. If attempting to download an eleventh time, the download will be blocked.

Downloaded content that you have started watching will automatically be removed after 48 hours. If content is not watched, it will automatically be removed from your downloads after 30 days or whenever the content leaves the platform (whichever is sooner).

Logging out of your Peacock account or uninstalling the Peacock app on a device will remove all downloaded Peacock content from that device.
