Hulu announced an added a treat to its features on Halloween.
Hulu subscribers to the ad-free service can now download content for Android and Fire (FireOS) devices for offline viewing. The download feature had previously only been available with iOS devices.
The announcement came just before the streaming wars heat up with the launches of Apple TV+ (Nov. 1) and Disney+ (Nov. 12).
Hulu launched the download feature for iOS devices in early October.
