Vertical Video: A New Norm in Storytelling

This move comes as vertical video continues to dominate the digital landscape. While early forays into TikTok-like formats sparked skepticism, the trend has been embraced by platforms across the board, including Peacock and Tubi, both of which have recently launched their own mobile-first vertical video experiences.

Industry Experimentation And Strategic Focus

Netflix has tested short-form video formats for several years. At TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, Elizabeth Stone, Chief Product and Technology Officer, said the company is developing formats suited to its content library rather than replicating social media platforms. The approach focuses on using selected highlights to present content in shorter formats.

A Transformative Step In Entertainment

As the digital media landscape evolves, Netflix is introducing features such as Clips to adapt its platform to mobile viewing habits. By adding short-form content discovery tools, the company is making it easier for users to navigate its catalogue and select content in shorter viewing sessions.
