The guys at Vimeo wanted users to be able to enjoy a great video experience, no matter where they are. With the new design, they did just that: full screen videos with little to no distractions.

Of course, what you see is far from being the only improvements Vimeo brought to the new mobile site. On top of a “bajilion things under the hood” to make the site much faster and 4G-friendly, Vimeo also brought a great new feature: Watch Later will let you like videos and save them, even if you have not logged in!

Finally, the new mobile site also comes with a selection of recommendations after you’ve watched a video, so you won’t have to search for what you will want to see next.

Founded in 2004, Vimeo has more than 30 million registered members to date, and claims a monthly reach of 170 million people.
