I want to browse Vimeo on my mobile device, how do I do that?

Vimeo has an awesome mobile site for you to use! If our mobile site supports your device you will be automatically taken to it when going to vimeo.com, or you can go to vimeo.com/m. If you're more app-savvy, you can download the Vimeo app for your device! Read more below or check out our Everywhere page!

What can I do on the Vimeo mobile site?

You can like videos, comment on videos, follow other members, and upload videos, just like on the desktop site. You can also play from your Watch Later list, edit video Settings, and share videos via email and social networks.
For anything else (Groups, Channels, Widgets, Portfolios, etc.), you'll need to access the desktop version of the Vimeo.

My videos won't load on the mobile site. What gives?

Not all videos can be played on mobile devices. You'll need a Plus or PRO account to create mobile-compatible versions of your videos.

The desktop version of Vimeo is loading on my mobile device. How do I switch to the mobile site?

To switch into a made-especially-for-mobile version of Vimeo.com on your device, scroll to the bottom of any page and tap on Mobile Version. Some pages, like Groups and Vimeo PRO Portfolios, don't have mobile versions just yet, FYI!

I created a mobile version of my video. Why isn't it playing on my mobile device?

Some devices can play videos without a mobile version, but to be sure that everyone (including you!) can watch your video:
  • Make sure you have created mobile versions.
  • Confirm that you have installed the latest version of iOS, Android, or other mobile operating system.

  • Check that your mobile browsers are up-to-date. 

Some mobile browsers have a preference that allows you to load the desktop version of websites instead of the mobile version. To ensure that you can access the mobile versions of your videos (both embedded videos and on-site), make sure your browser's preferences are set to load the mobile versions of the websites you visit. The easiest way to check this is to type in vimeo.com/m — if the desktop site loads, check your browser preferences for a "Request Desktop Site" setting.
