How to Watch Online Courses Offline

If your connection is slow, metered, or unavailable, you can download the courses you're enrolled in and watch them in a local player — no streaming required. Here's how to set up offline learning in a few minutes.

What you need

  • — A Udemy, Coursera or LinkedIn Learning account with courses
  • — Udemie installed (free tier is enough to start)
  • — Disk space for the courses you want offline

Steps

  1. 01

    Install Udemie

    Install Udemie from the Microsoft Store on Windows or the Snap Store on Linux, then open the app. The free tier lets you start right away.

  2. 02

    Connect your learning account

    Sign in to Udemy, Coursera or LinkedIn Learning inside Udemie so it can see the courses you're enrolled in.

  3. 03

    Select the courses to download

    Pick one or more courses. Udemie queues them and downloads videos, subtitles and resources in the background.

  4. 04

    Watch offline in the built-in player

    Open your library and play any downloaded course. Subtitles, per-lecture progress and notes all work without an internet connection.

FAQ

Do downloaded courses work with no internet at all?

Yes. Once a course is in your Udemie library, every video, subtitle and resource plays fully offline — on a plane, a train, or a dead connection.

Does offline viewing track my progress?

Yes. Udemie tracks per-lecture progress locally and keeps your timestamped notes, so you can pick up exactly where you left off.

Is offline downloading free?

The free tier downloads at a limited speed with daily AI quotas. PRO removes the speed limit and raises the AI ceilings.

Ready to start?

Free to start. Install on Windows or Linux.
