NEW VINE UPDATES MADE IT EASY TO find, play, and share VINES

The famous six-second (actually, six-and-a-half-second) Twitter video service, Vine, just updated its app to make it easier to search for popular video creators. Twitter has also brought a new way to find other Vines that will interest you by typing specific phrases. Along with this, there is now an easier way to search for Viners you want to discover and to find things you are interested by typing phrases instead of hashtags.

If you want to search for more Viners to enjoy, then open the new “Suggested Viners” section. This “Suggested Viners” section was curated by the website’s team to make sure that the Viners on the list really have worthy content.

Those on the Vine list are the creators of the famous six-second videos that users share common interests with and are hand selected by Vine’s Team. The new features also allow for you to search for other Vines that will interest you by typing certain phrases. This is an upgrade from the previous version that only allowed for usernames and hashtags.

VINE NO LONGER RUNS IN ITS ORIGINAL 480P

In addition to all of the new search updates, Vine also now features the ability for iOS users to view content in 720p, up from the original 480p that Vines started out in. Uploads will all be done in 720p HD. In order to get these features on Android, iOS, and Windows-run phones, you must update the Vine app. The new features can only be accessed by updating the Vine app, and then going to the “Your Content” section. Vine also recently began allowing users to link their address books and Twitter accounts outside of their immediate friends and Twitter networks.

INSTAGRAM DOES AND VINE DOES TOO

All of the updates to the Vine app are similar to the to the ones made to Instagram. Instagram’s latest update allowed it to support 1080p image and video uploads on its app. The fact that the two services’ updates fell within such short time of each other is no coincidence – Instagram is owned by part of Twitter’s competition, Facebook.

Instagram App to Revamp “Search” and “Explore” Tabs, Showcasing More Real-Time Moments - http://clapway.com/2015/06/24/instagram-app-to-revamp-search-and-explore-tabs-showcasing-more-real-time-moments987/

The technology world is always a-changing, and Instagram is no different. The immensely popular app Instagram is going through two updates right now, which may appear major to some die-hard Instagram admirers and users: a revamp of their “search” and “explore” features in order to show more real-time moments. In addition, a section including a cornucopia of collections will be included during the revamp, with attention-grabbing events and users taking over and being updated often.

What the new “Search” feature for Instagram will include

With the “search” feature, Instagram users will be able to look for photos and videos from particular locations. These locations can range in order to cater to anybody’s needs. The pros for users taking advantage of this feature are endless, as well as full of ongoing possibilities: planning that next getaway, looking up where to go to university, what great restaurant to eat at next, or even looking for a place to retire at once that age hits. Also included is being the ability to go through searches, so users can either look for people, places, or tags.

What the new “Explore” feature for Instagram will comprise of

The revamped “Explore” feature will be following Twitter’s suit, in which it will be curating real-time material to its users, from events to conversations. In the video and picture-based apps blog post, they write, “Through trending Tags and trending Places, you can experience moments like #bonnaroo or #fathersday, from every perspective.” Instagram’s overall main purpose, especially in revamping their search feature, is to give its 200 million users access to different kinds of content from all over the world. This is whether they like it or not with just a touchscreen tap (or swipe) away.

How the revamped “Search” and “Explore” feature for Instagram compares with character-based app Twitter

Although Twitter is mostly a character-based app and does not emphasize pictures and videos as much as Instagram, that does not mean that both of them don’t compare in certain things. When it comes to the picture and video-based app revamping both of their prominent feature, Instagram is following Twitter’s methods. How is that exactly? By updating mostly their “Explore” feature in order for users to witness real-time events and conversations, between other users, as discussed above. Twitter may have already established the curating of real-time conversations for many years. Furthermore, now that Instagram is now doing the same and they are also picture and video-based, will they once again continue to take struggling Twitter on a run for its money? Most definitely.
