Free video-streaming service Tubi lets users share curated watchlists now

Tubi users can now create and share playlists of movies and shows available on the streaming service.

Tubi is a free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) service that has both live channels and on-demand content.

Today, the Fox-owned company announced “ Mixtapes ” as a way for users to make watchlists from Tubi’s “nearly 400,000 movies and TV episodes,” Tubi’s announcement said, adding:

They can give each mixtape a title and description and arrange the entertainment inside in whatever order feels right to them. Viewers can build one entirely on their own, or describe what they’re looking for and let Tubi offer a starting place that they can edit, rearrange, or rebuild entirely. When their mixtape is finished, they can publish and share it with other people or keep it for themselves.

Tubi’s Mixtapes website already features numerous playlists, including: “Millennial Memory Lane”—with movies like Cruel Intentions (1999) and The Fifth Element ( 1997) and shows such as Everybody Hates Chris ( 2005–2009) and Degrassi: The Next Generation (2001–2015); and “Bald Baddies”—which includes Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw ( 2019) and Central Intelligence (2016).

Watching a Mixtape doesn’t require a Tubi account, but making one does.

Tubi’s Mixtapes comes at a time when streaming service providers are seeking a way to address the content fragmentation that’s frequently cited as a frustration among streaming users, as well as users struggling to find something to watch. Gracenote’s “2025 State of Play” report, for instance, surveyed 3,000 consumers in the US, Brazil, France, Germany, Mexico, and the UK and found that “nearly 33 percent of streaming users feel content and service fragmentation negatively impacts their TV experience.”
