Streaming iTunes movies on LTE

[2010mini]

ANyone else discovered you can now stream iTunes movies on LTE? When did this happen? Before my phone or iPad's videos app would give a "connect to wifi" error. Now I can stream without issue.

Only the stock video app had this issue. All other streaming apps did not have that limitation. Glad to see Apple get with the times.

IPhone 6s and iPad Air 2 both Verizon LTE.

As I mentioned before I could not. This just noticed this a couple days ago when my daughter was streaming a movie in the car.

I just tried on my iPad and I still get the connect to wifi message when trying to stream or download a movie using the stock movie app.

How are you doing this? I can't figure out a way.

I was able to stream video last week but now I get the wifi message again. I was on the latest beta of ios 10

So it was only on an iOS 10 beta? You weren't able to before?

Before iOS 10 streaming iTunes movies always required wifi. Although I must confess one, and only one of my movies streamed on LTE on iOS 9. To this day I don't know why.
