Tubi Users Can Now Share 400,000-Item Playlists

Nearly 400,000 movies and television episodes make up the catalog for Tubi, which launched a new sharing tool on November 10, 2026. The feature, named Mixtapes, allows users to assemble custom playlists from this vast library. The platform provides both live channels and on-demand content for free with ads.

Users have full control over the structure of their lists. They can assign a specific title and description to each collection. Viewers can arrange the entertainment content in any order they prefer. This flexibility supports both fully manual curation and assisted creation.

The service allows users to build a mixtape entirely on their own. Alternatively, they can describe the type of content they are seeking, and the platform will offer a starting point. Creators can then edit, rearrange, or completely rebuild this initial suggestion to suit their specific tastes. Once the list is finalized, creators can publish it for others to discover or keep it private for personal use.

The Tubi website already displays several pre-made playlists to demonstrate the feature. One example is titled Millennial Memory Lane. It features a mix of films and series from the late 1990s and 2000s. The list includes movies such as The Fifth Element from 1997 and Cruel Intentions from 1999. It also includes television shows like Degrassi: The Next Generation and Everybody Hates Chris.

Another featured playlist is titled Bald Baddies. This collection showcases action-oriented content. It includes films such as Central Intelligence from 2016 and Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw from 2019. These examples show the variety of genres and eras that users can incorporate into their shared lists.

Accessing the new feature involves different requirements depending on the user's role. Viewing a mixtape does not require an active Tubi account. Creating and publishing a new list does require an account. This distinction allows casual viewers to enjoy curated content without signing up.

A report titled 2025 State of Play by Gracenote surveyed 3,000 consumers across the US, Brazil, France, Germany, Mexico, and the UK. The findings indicated that nearly 33 percent of streaming users feel that the fragmentation of content and services negatively impacts their overall television experience. Tubi introduced Mixtapes to address this issue by allowing users to organize and share their preferred content in a centralized format.
