Key Takeaways
- A tool that allows you to store and share your favorite movie and TV show scenes is being introduced by Netflix.
- After releasing on iOS today, “Moments” will be arriving to Android in the coming weeks.
- An episode or movie that you have marked a “moment” for will begin to play from the scene you bookmarked when you watch it again.
It will be simple to bookmark your favorite sequences from TV shows and movies for later viewing or to share with friends on social media thanks to Netflix’s new “Moments” feature.
Viewers only need to hit the “Moments” link at the bottom of the app screen to activate the function, which is being released today on iOS and will be available on Android in the following weeks.
While selecting “Share” enables users to post their favorite scenes to Facebook, Instagram, and other social networking sites, selecting “Save” saves the scene that is now playing to the “My Netflix” page.
Netflix claims there is plenty of room to save moments, so most users will never reach their limit, even if the amount of moments you can save “depends on the length of the content.”
The scene you captured will begin to play when you replay the episode or film you just captured a moment for. If you intend to watch an episode or movie from start to finish, we suppose it could be annoying, but it seems like a small price to pay to be able to share the greatest parts of your favorite binge-worthy series with your loved ones.
Moments is now only available on the Netflix mobile app
Although it currently has no plans to introduce Moments to TVs or the internet, Netflix says it will “hopefully” expand the function in the future.
Moments will undoubtedly make it simpler to share thrilling moments from your favorite shows without sharing a complete episode, whether or not it stays a Netflix app-only feature.
In addition to Moments, Netflix has started a global campaign called “It’s So Good.” This includes some of the most memorable streaming moments from Cardi B and Giancarlo Esposito, among other celebrities.
