Netflix now lets you pin your favourite pop-culture moments! 

The content library on Netflix has been one of the highly acclaimed ones, with web shows and movies that stand out from what everyone else has to offer. It is safe to say that anything coming out from Netflix tends to influence the pop culture of that year. Consider Squid Games as one of the shining examples. 

But what if you wanted to grab certain moments from these shows and movies? For years, Netflix has ensured DRM protection for anything that’s part of its content library. That means that users on mobile phones, laptops and smart TVs are barred from sharing screenshots or recording certain snippets from their favourite content. 

However, Netflix has now figured out a way to respect the creators’ rights and licences while allowing people to hold on to their moments from any web show or movie. For those willing to share those iconic moments as screenshots, Netflix now makes that happen too.

Intrigued? Check out how you can start bookmarking your favourite pop-culture moments on Netflix.

Netflix Moments: More than just a screenshot feature

With Moments, you can essentially save your favourite scenes from web shows and movies and use it as a reference point in the future. Think of it as a bookmark – the only exception is that you bookmark your favourite scene instead of a book page. 

The feature is only available for subscribers accessing Netflix on their smartphones. The way to summon the Moments features is easy too – no dealing with pesky button-combinations.

- While watching a web show or movie, ensure that you hit pause on the exact frame you want to save in your Moments gallery. 

- Now look for the ‘Moments’ option on the far left side. 

- The app will ask whether you want to save this particular moment for future reference. Once you hit ‘Save’, that frame will be saved in the Moments gallery. 

- Now, when you head back to the Moments gallery and tap on this recorded moment, Netflix will start playing that show/movie from that very moment.

How to share Netflix Moments screenshots?

Users can also share these specific Moments on other apps like WhatsApp, X, Instagram, Facebook and whichever social media platform they wish to. Netflix will create a custom screenshot of the moment that’s fit for sharing on other social platforms without violating the DRM rights. The custom screenshot adds the Netflix logo along with the name and episode details of the show.
