Have you ever wanted to save that best Netflix moment, like that intense performance or that tear-jerking farewell? Good news – Netflix is ​​finally making it easy to do just that! With the launch of a new mobile feature called Moments, you can now capture, save and share your favorite scenes from movies and shows right from your phone.
As of now, Netflix has blocked users from taking screenshots on their devices. Every time you try to capture a scene, you just get a black screen, a measure Netflix uses to prevent content sharing. But with Moments, Netflix has done a complete 180. Starting today, iOS users worldwide can access the feature, with Android users gaining access over the next few weeks.
So, how does Moments work? Imagine you’re watching Bridgerton and want to save the much-awaited kiss between Colin and Penelope. Instead of worrying about a solution, just tap the Moments button at the bottom of the screen. Instantly, the scene is saved to your My Netflix tab, where you can easily watch it again later. And Netflix has made it even easier, whenever you re-watch an episode or movie you go straight to the moment you saved.
Sharing is also very easy. Once you save a scene, you can post it to social media directly from the My Netflix tab – whether it’s Instagram, Facebook or any other platform. Netflix clearly wants Moments to help users relive and share the scenes that mean the most to them, especially with a big release like Squid Game Season 2 coming soon.
The rollout of Moments also coincides with Netflix’s latest global brand campaign, “It’s So Good,” which celebrates some of the platform’s most memorable and fan-favorite scenes. The campaign also stars stars like Cardi B, Simone Biles and Giancarlo Esposito to highlight moments that stuck with audiences. It seems like Netflix is ​​all about helping fans connect with scenes that leave an impression.
Netflix hasn’t hinted at what’s next for Moments, but the company says it plans to expand the feature with even more ways for fans to interact with their saved scenes . For now, Moments is a major update, turning Netflix into a more interactive experience. So get ready to save, share, and relive your top Netflix moments like never before!
