The video scrolling function on TikTok will be quite similar to a new feature that Twitter plans to implement. Such a format for videos already exists on websites like Instagram and YouTube, and it appears that Twitter is starting to follow in their footsteps.

On its most recent application release, the social media behemoth is now testing the new functionality. With just one click, viewers may play videos in full-screen mode, providing a simple and engaging watching experience. You only need to launch the Twitter app and press the search button at the bottom if you want to check it out. From here, you may scroll down to see the section labeled “Videos For You.”

When you choose this, a full-screen Immersive Video mode will open, allowing you to scroll up and down to see videos one after the other. Based on your followers as well as those you might not follow, videos will be shown to you. However, the decision will probably be made based on the material you’ve lately watched. This functionality is now only available to Android users, but it should soon be available to iOS users as well.

The material that is shown in the “Videos For You” section will also indicate how many views each video has received. Additionally, the tweets will display Tweets and trends that users may find interesting.  At the moment, the new video mode is only available in select regions that use Twitter in English.
