Netflix updates its Moments feature to give users greater control over scene clipping

Netflix launched a scene-clipping feature for mobile last year called “Moments,” which lets users quickly save their favorite scenes from shows and movies within the Netflix app. The streaming giant rolled out an update on Wednesday, allowing users to specify both a starting point and an endpoint when saving a scene.

People now have the option to adjust the scene’s ending, allowing them to create clips that are as long or as short as they prefer. Previously, users could only set a starting point when saving a scene.

To use the feature, begin watching a show or movie, then tap anywhere on the screen and click the “Clip” button. After saving, the clip will live in the “My Netflix” tab to rewatch for later. You can also share on social media, and your followers can click on the post to be taken to the particular scene within the Netflix app.

This update coincides with the release of Part 2 of the second season of “Wednesday.” Launching the Moments update alongside the hit series, which will feature Lady Gaga as a guest star, will likely generate excitement for the show and encourage fans to share scenes on social media.

According to the company, members have used Moments across thousands of titles.
