#tiktok videos

Twitter on Thursday has announced the rollout of its updated 'immersive media viewer' for its app that resembles the video scrolling aspect of TikTok, where users have access to seemingly perpetual trail of video contents.

TikTok announced Monday that it is rolling out a new feature expanding the maximum length of uploads from 3 minutes to 10 minutes. It is believed that longer content will make TikTok more capable to handle monetization and other features flexibly. This latest development reminds of the streaming platform Quibi, which also allowed 10-minute videos but has since been shut down in December 2020. "We're always thinking about new ways to bring value to our community and enrich the TikTok experience," a TikTok spokesperson said in an email statement. While TikTok believes this will "unleash even more creative possibilities," rival social media platforms have gone the opposite way. Following TikTok's success, Meta has recently released Facebook Reels globally.
