Twitter has revealed that it updates its media viewer to display full-screen videos, giving users an immersive experience. The microblogging service is reportedly converting to a vertical video player akin to TikTok Like Vertical Videos that can be opened by simply tapping or clicking on a video in the Twitter app.
The viewer may simply scroll up and down to begin viewing more interesting videos similar to those on TikTok and other social media platforms after the video has begun playing and has transported them to the new immersive vertical video player. The user can, however, simply tap on the back arrow in the top left corner of the app to leave the viewer and return to the original Tweet.
