## Tubi adds Mixtapes feature
The Fox-owned free streaming service announced Mixtapes, letting users create and share watchlists from Tubi's nearly four hundred thousand movies and TV episodes.
## How Mixtapes works
Users can give each mixtape a title and description, arrange content in any order, build playlists alone or with Tubi's suggestions, then publish and share them or keep them private.
## Addressing content fragmentation
Gracenote's twenty twenty-five State of Play report surveyed three thousand consumers across six countries and found nearly thirty-three percent of streaming users feel content fragmentation negatively impacts their TV experience.
## Users abandon services over discovery
Forty-nine percent of surveyed users said they are willing to cancel a service based on difficulty finding what to watch. Nineteen percent would abandon a viewing session if their content search is not successful.

## Why this matters for Tubi
Making content easier to find could help Tubi grow its user base and increase viewing time, which supports the advertising business Tubi relies on. Sharable watchlists remain rare among streaming services.
## Key takeaway

Tubi launched Mixtapes, a feature letting users create and share watchlists, as streaming services seek ways to help users navigate content fragmentation and find shows to watch.
