Netflix to Revamp Mobile App with Vertical Video Feed and Video Podcasts by 2026

Netflix plans a major redesign of its mobile app, set to launch in late 2026, featuring a vertical video feed similar to Instagram Reels and TikTok. This update aims to enhance content discovery and user engagement by integrating short-form swipeable clips and supporting new formats like video podcasts. The company is partnering with podcast platforms such as Spotify and iHeartMedia to expand its offerings, reflecting a strategy to compete with social media platforms for daily user attention.
