Question about movies bought from Google Play

[GadgetRick]

I have searched everywhere on how to do this but I can't find it anywhere. I keep reading you can download purchased movies to watch offline. I can't find out how/where to do this.

That's the short story, the long story is I want to be able to download purchased movies so I can watch them on my iPad on a flight out to Vegas in a few weeks. I realize I may have to convert the movie into something the iPad can use but I can't figure out how to download movies period.

Thanks.

Thanks, I've seen this. I see no pin to click/tap. This was the closest I've found to how to do it. Unfortunately, I have no idea what pin they're talking about.

I don't see that at all. When I click on a purchased movie, it just bring up another page with info on the movie and the area where the movie is with the play button. When I click on the play button it starts to play it in a YouTube window. But no push pin anywhere.

its before you click on it. i open the app, then open my movies, from that view i see the pin.
ill try a sceen shot if you still cant find it.

Yeah, I don't see that anywhere.

I go into My Movies & TV and it has the movie I purchased. No pin there. When I click on that, it gives me the other screen I mentioned (no pin).

That's from your phone. I'm trying to do it from my computer so I can download it.

I can't even figure out how to see movies I've purchased on my phone. I can only go to Movies & TV but I can't find My Movies anywhere in the app.

i dont know what else to tell you, sorry.

On my phone, I just can't figure out where to go to see purchased movies. There is no option to see MY movies, just Movies & TV. I can download apps just fine from the phone.

I appreciate your trying to help. I've been trying to figure this out since yesterday and just can't find anything anywhere that explains all of this. That's one MAJOR thing I hate about Google, they just have HORRIBLE support for this sort of thing.

Don't you just go to play store - movies and TV - click the "..." Button or menu button and select "my movies."

i dont know if this will help or not but i cant find it either on my phone. what i did was went to the play store, searched for "Google Play Movies & TV", clicked on it and opened it from there.
only from searching for you did i see it was installed already on my phone, even though i cant find it.
