A NEW Netflix feature will save you hours of shuffling, fast-forwarding and rewinding for your favourite moments in TV shows or movies.

And it’s rolling out to iPhones and Android devices – for free – in the coming weeks.

Netflix has introduced a new mobile app feature called Moments which can let viewers save and share their favourite scenes with friends.

But they can also act as bookmarks.

Once you save a Moment on your phone, the episode or film will play right from the scene you bookmarked.

How does it work?

A new Moments button will appear at the bottom of the screen when you're watching Netflix content.

Once your favourite scene is playing, or even if it’s just finished, tap the Moments button.

The scene will then automatically save to your My Netflix tab.

You can then head into that tab to rewatch all of your favourite moments and share them.

Or, you can share them on the spot with options to send to Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, iMessage and more.

You can even just copy the link to send it in an email, or share it on social media.

It can make watching the latest season of a long-running show less arduous.

This way, you can hop from highlight to highlight to catch up with the details before the latest season airs – instead of re-watching from start to finish.

The feature is only beginning to roll out to smartphones globally from today.

You will need to update your Netflix app in order to access it.

Moments is only in its first iteration.

Netflix hopes to build out the feature in the future, however, the streaming giant remained tight-lipped on what else it has in store.
