The days of the 30-second restriction for videos on Twitter are over, Twitter announced on Tuesday alongside other coming changes to videos on the platform. Twitter users can now tweet videos up to 140 seconds long, matching the same amount of characters users can post in a single tweet.
Not only can you post videos over 2 minutes, Twitter will also be making it easier to find more videos to watch with a new viewing mode.
The new video viewer, coming soon to iOS and Android, looks very similar to Facebook’s video viewer and suggests more videos to watch. With a tap or a click, you can select the next thumbnail under the video you’re currently watching to start playing it, or swipe or scroll through to check out more suggestions. This feature also works with Vine videos.
