Where are downloaded movies stored on my iPad?
Where are downloaded movies stored on my iPad? I can't find them. I do NOT use Apple TV, these are downloaded from youtube and streaming services.

Movies downloaded within specific apps such as the Youtube App, or Amazon Prime app, would be stored inside the App only. They would be nowhere else.
The Amazon Prime App has a Downloads tab at the bottom, and the Youtube app should have a Downloads section in the Librar tab.
You would need to delete them from inside each app to stop them from taking up space.

Files you download from a browser on the iPad should go to the Downloads folder. Do you use iCloud Drive? If you go to the Files folder, you should see a Downloads folder, and any other folders created. As far as the app is concerned, you would need to ask their support where they may be, but my guess is they are downloaded to the app.
I can see them in Settings under memory info: "Review Downloaded Videos", but they cannot be played from there.
If they have been dowloaded to the device, they will take up memory. They have got to be somewhere in the Files app when you download them. Although I can say that I've never tried to download a movie from a browser, or YouTube, so I cannot compare. I just tried to download a video from YouTube, and it appears as a link in my Files app.
Did you look in the Files app?
Thanks much for your help, but I have checked there and, while other downloads are there, the movies are not. If they would be downloaded to the app, would they be taking up space in the iPad memory. I can see them all quite readily there.
Yes, as I said above, they are listed as taking space, whether watched, partially watched, or not watched... in the memory info. They are not in the files app. This is like the way I can lose things IRL. lol!
I did. They are not there.
What were you using to download them? Safari, another browser, a particular app?
Thanks both for replies :0)
I downloaded from various streaming services: Prime and Acorn with Safari.
Acorn may have been through the Acorn App.
I know you said you don't use it, but did you look in the TV App?
Yes, I looked there, too. I think I looked everywhere. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Thanks much for going the extra mile in trying to figure out where they went. Much appreciated!
You're welcome. Sorry I was unable to help.
