SAN FRANCISCO, CA – Twitter is trying a new way for people to watch videos. The platform is testing a full-screen video experience. This test is happening now for some users.
The new feature makes videos take up the entire phone screen. Videos play vertically. This is similar to how videos work on apps like TikTok and Instagram Reels. Twitter wants to see if users like this change.
Watching videos should be easier now. Users can swipe up to see the next video. They can also swipe down to go back. This makes browsing videos simpler. The sound turns on automatically when you start watching. You can turn it off if you want.
Twitter says this test helps creators. Videos get more attention in full-screen mode. Creators might reach more viewers. This could help people grow their audience. Twitter also wants people to spend more time watching videos on the app.
The test is only available to a small group of users. Twitter is mostly testing this with iOS users in the United States. The company will look at the feedback. They want to see how people use the feature. Twitter might change things based on what users say. They might also make the test bigger later.
