Vimeo 5.2
Upload straight from your phone
Vimeo app lets you upload clips straight from your phone’s camera roll. You don’t need to worry about privacy issues either because you can choose who gets to see your video, like specific friends, the whole world, or no one but yourself. You can select one of three video quality settings. Don’t forget to write a little description, and a nice title before submitting.
Comment, like, share
Vimeo is full of High quality videos created by users worldwide and it is easy to lose track of time while browsing. For that reason, Vimeo offers a news feed tab which is populated with staff picks. Don’t hesitate to use the search criteria. It keeps track of the latest words or phrases used, as well as offering hotkey shortcuts right before selecting the desired item. The app lets you flag videos and keeps track on them on the likes tab. You can leave your thoughts in the comments section, beneath the player, or share them with your friends through messaging, mail or social media.
Info about content
The iOS Vimeo app allows users to find out more information about the content they’re watching, including the title, creator, play count and more, which is obviously quite important in getting a clear picture about the video in front of you.
You can pick which notifications are sent to your phone from the app settings area, which should help you stop the app from swamping you with too many of these.
The videos you’ve added to your device for offline viewing are available in the Downloads stream, an easier way to get your hands on them.
Save videos to watch later
Whether you’re on the run and short on time, the Vimeo app lets you save videos in a specially created tab, generically named Watch later. But why stop there? Download videos to the phone’s physical memory and watch them offline anytime you want, even in Airplane mode.
Another cool feature the app comes with allows you to send the videos to your screen over Chromecast, if you own the device.
