From The Verge: Netflix is launching a new feature called “Moments” that lets you save and share bookmarks to a specific spot in a show or movie. The feature seems like it could be a very useful way to share parts of something you’re watching with friends or on social media.
To capture a moment, tap on the screen while you’re watching something on Netflix to see the various menu options, then tap on the new “Moments” button to pop up a new menu, and then tap the save button. From the Moments menu, you can also see other Moments you’ve saved for that show or movie and share Moments to various apps. You can also copy a link to the Moment to your clipboard.
Netflix gave me early access to the feature, so I used it to make a moment of the best scene in Lost — spoiler warning, obviously — which is perhaps the most Jay Peters thing to do.
It’s all pretty easy to use, and I think a lot of people are going to be sharing links to their favorite scenes with their group chats or to their social networks. I could also see Moments being widely used as a personal bookmarking tool. Instead of scouring YouTube to find the exact clip of a certain moment in a show you want to rewatch, you could just watch it from your personal library of saved clips.
