Netflix is launching a new feature called Moments that lets you easily save, share, and rewatch certain scenes from shows and movies. So if there's a spectacular part in a comedy special that you want a friend to see, or a shocking twist in that you can't get enough of, this might be helpful.
The feature will be mobile only for the moment. Moments debuts worldwide today on the Netflix iOS app. It will be available on Android in the coming weeks.
When you see a scene that you want to save or share, you just need to tap the Moments button at the top of the screen. It will be saved to the My Netflix tab. You can return to Moments on your phone whenever you want. Netflix says episodes and movies will start playing from flagged scenes when you watch them again. There is also the option to share a moment on social media platforms or in messages while creating a moment. You can also share scenes with friends from the My Netflix tab.
Netflix has long had episodes and movies, but adding an easy way to help users revisit their favorite scenes and share them with friends is a smart idea. It appears that the company has embraced the clips feature it has offered for several years. However, there may be more to come from Netflix on this front, as the company wrote in that “Moments will hopefully expand in the future, offering even more ways for members to use and enjoy the feature.”
