Unless you have a mobile data, make sure you're using a WiFi Network Connection. The content that is available for download can be found under the "Available for Download" category in the App.

If a movie or a series is available for offline viewing, the download option will be available just alongside it. According to Netflix's official help page, the user can download the content in standard or high definition quality, which is quite useful for devices having low storage capacity.
