Preview while you scrub

Drag the seek bar and see the frame you will land on.

iPhoneiPadMac

In movies and episodes, dragging the seek bar shows a small floating preview — the actual frame at that position, with the timecode under it. Let go and playback jumps there.

  1. Start a movie or an episode and show the controls.
  2. Press and drag the seek bar. The preview card follows your finger or pointer.
  3. Release to jump. The preview disappears and playback continues from the new spot.

Previews are fetched separately from playback, so scrubbing never disturbs what is currently playing. Recently previewed spots reappear instantly.

Tip — Live TV and recordings show the target time while you drag, without a picture preview.
