Twitter has added two new video features to improve how people watch videos on the site.
These new features are the outcome of the growing popularity that videos are obtaining across various social media platforms. The company claims that videos make up a significant portion of public conversation and are one of the most interesting methods for individuals to express themselves through the medium of the internet. In point of fact, “videos that are shared on Twitter receive billions of combined views every year” (yes, that’s a capital B for billions). Twitter is a website that combines microblogging and social networking.

An immersive, easy-to-understand viewing experience
Twitter has changed its immersive media viewer so that you can now expand videos to full screen with just one click. Previously, this was not possible. To make it work, you just need to tap or click on a video within the Twitter app.
When the video has been played in full-screen mode, it is much simpler to find further videos to watch. Simply scroll up to get started looking at more interesting video content. Simply click the back arrow in the top left corner of the viewer to quit the viewer and return to the tweet it was originally connected to.
In the next few days, Twitter users on iOS who tweet in English will be able to use the immersive media viewer.
Increasing the number of videos displayed in Explore
The Explore tab on Twitter has also been modernized.
You may now quickly find other movies that you enjoy, in addition to tweets and trends that may be of interest to you, due to the newly implemented video carousel. Simply click on the Explore tab to be taken to some of the most widely watched videos that are being discussed on
Availability
People who use Twitter on iOS or Android, speak English, and live in certain countries can use the video carousel feature right now.
After getting a lot of requests, Twitter finally made the “edit tweet” feature testable at the start of the previous month.
