Vimeo gets even more mobile friendly

Filed under: Video, Mobile, Web

Smartphones are taking over! We certainly all knew that by now. Vimeo has decided to hop on board and start making their service a little mobile-friendly. A while back, Vimeo announced that their site was compatible with both the iPhone and even Android phones.

Yesterday, they took it a step further and announced that users can now quickly and easily create a "mobile version" of their video that can work on most smartphones. You can "mobilize" your video in two ways: directly from your smartphone or if you are a Plus user, you can do it without a phone via your account.

Making a mobile version simply makes a copy of your video and applies the right codec to be displayed on mobile platforms. Vimeo is expecting a big rush of users making mobile versions so they said they'll be rolling the feature out slowly and are expecting some slowdowns while people check out the new feature.
