• Greetings my fellow Vimeans,

    I have awesome news to share. The Vimeo developers have been hard at work, making it possible for anyone who owns a smartphone to easily watch, like, and comment on your videos!

    Plus users who own an iPhone, iPod Touch, Android, or Palm Pre can now go to our mobile site, vimeo.com/m and make mobile versions of their videos. After logging in, click "My Videos" then the "Generate Mobile Videos" button! (Please allow some time for your videos to bake in the transcoder ovens.)

    For Plus users who don't have a smartphone, no worries! You can make mobile versions of your videos by going to any of your video's setting page and clicking the "Videos" tab. Then check the "Generate mobile versions of all my videos" box.

    Once you choose to make mobile versions of your videos every new video you upload will get a mobile version and all of your existing videos will be queued up to be converted. For the next few days there will undoubtedly be a lot of demand to mobilize videos, so please allow for up to a day for everything to convert.

    We are really excited to offer mobile support and hope everyone enjoys watching Vimeo videos on all these fun new devices. We will be adding even more mobile features in the coming months so stay tuned!

    By the way, if you happen to run into a snag or need help with your mobile videos, please post to our Mobile Help thread in the Help Center.

      Excellent news. Now I can stop using episode. Will there be an option to select for mobile videos while uploading new vids? Or do we wait for them to upload first?
    • Daniel Hayek staff 2 years ago
      Your new uploads will also have mobile versions made after you initially select to have mobile versions made from your phone.

      I'm already really enjoying it! Thank you berry much. The quality is so insanely better than YouTube!!
      Alto I can't play the embedded movies I posted on my blog. Love to see that as well.

    • Richard Peters plus 2 years ago
      I don't have a smartphone but I'm guessing this can only be a good thing...best go off to put my vids in the oven...!

      Having the mobile version auto appear in embeds when visited from phones would be amazing!

    • Ben Smithett 2 years ago
      Nice! But how do we see these videos? Will they all just be added to the big long list of Staff Picks (?) that I currently see at vimeo.com/m on Android?

      It would be awesome to be able to access our subscriptions through the mobile site.
    • Andrew Pile staff 2 years ago
      There's a new tab on the mobile site, you have to be Plus.

      Someday we hope to have subscriptions in there.
    • Ben Smithett 2 years ago
      You have to be Plus to see the videos that Plus members convert to mobile?
    • Andrew Pile staff 2 years ago
      No, anyone can see the videos.
    • Ben Smithett 2 years ago
      Cool. Buuuuut how do we access them? Do they all just show up in the big long list on the mobile site?
    • Andrew Pile staff 2 years ago
      There's no subscriptions page right now. If you go to any video page on Vimeo, you'll be redirected to the mobile version.
    • Ben Smithett 2 years ago
      Ahhhh I see. Thanks!
    •  
    • Matt McDonald plus 2 years ago
      Hooray! Thanks, Vimeo Staff! You all rock!
    • Blake Whitman staff 2 years ago
      You are MOST welcome.
    • Gunnar Oliphant plus 2 years ago
      Yeah seriously thank you! I can't wait to try this feature out. I'm happy to pay for a plus account because of all the effort you guys put into making this site amazing.

    • Juan Pons plus 2 years ago
      This feature has been working well! I would love to be able to also play videos that are embedded using the flash embed... Maybe a new version of the embed code that is javascript based that switches on the fly based on the detected browser?

      Thanks to Vimeo for listening!
    • Andrew Pile staff 2 years ago
      Embedding support is coming, we're working on it!
    • Blocter 2 years ago
      Yeah!!

      The mobile site is good. When's the iPhone app coming? =)
    • Blake Whitman staff 2 years ago
      We're workin on tons of cool new stuff, the app being one such feature. No dates yet, but believe me, I want it just as much as everyone else!
    • Craig G 2 years ago
      I follow the Vimeo film tweets on my iPhone. Sometimes the link redirects to the mobile site and sometimes not.
      Anyway, it's refreshing to get a response from one of the creators.
      Google can learn something from Vimeo.
    •  
    • Ronan Leyesa plus 2 years ago
      Ah this is great. I'm guessing we'll see dedicated vimeo mobile apps in the near future.
    •  
    • Fantastic! Another reason to love Vimeo.

      And I'll love it even more when the improved analytics are done. :) When's the plan to release that?
    • Andrew Pile staff 2 years ago
      OMG, really soon. You're gonna love it.
    • Article19 plus 2 years ago
      don't use the word soon!!!!!!!!!! and where's our free pony, we were promised ages back? ;o)
    • I know i'll love them:

      the analytics and the free ponies.

    • Mike Hutcherson plus 2 years ago
      hay Blake, Happy new year. i was joking about the Nokia Cityman 450

    • Blake Whitman staff 2 years ago
      I think it works, you just need this: bit.ly/5QDilJ

      I'm saving up for one. i've already got a few flux capacitors ready
    •  
    • vividography.com plus 2 years ago
      Very stoked for this feature. Thanks
    •  
    • Why only for Plus users? Wouldn't it make better business sense to allow EVERYONE to use the service on their smartphones? Vimeo is hands-down the BEST video sharing site on the internet that I have ever seen. Is an iPhone app entirely necessary, I don't believe so right now. Focus on getting the masses to use the service and then focus on compartmentalized markets.
    • Matt Schwarz staff 2 years ago
      Because this is a new and exciting feature that has taken a lot of time and effort, we are only offering it for Plus or paying members, but that may change somewhere down the line. Either way, all users at the very leaset can view any Plus members videos and use Vimeo mobile.

      Awesome! I can't wait for a Vimeo app for Iphone O.S. I've been dreaming for it for 4 years! Anyways Thanks guys
    • Andrea Allen staff 2 years ago
      You were dreaming of iphone apps 2 years before the iphone was released?! ;)
    • Brennan King 2 years ago
      Yeah I'm kind of psychic... on my mother's side. I kid I kid. I just don't know how to do math.

    • Alastair Tye Samson plus 2 years ago
      thank you for paying attention to android as well as iphone :D

      can't wait till i can embed vimeo vids on mobile sites - it sucks having to upload a version of everything to youtube just to keep all content available to handheld users of my website.
