Vine - app review

Just when you think there couldn’t possibly scope for another social media platform, BLAM, in comes Twitter with an uber cool video sharing app.
Vine has echoes of Twitter running through its DNA and the two are interlinked much like Facebook and Instagram are. It’s a very intuitive app, which is easy to familiarise yourself with, needless to say it’s also very quick and easy to ‘Vine’ also (yes, we’re using Vine as a verb). See all Android app reviews.
So, how does Vine work? Well, there are two main sides to the app. These are making your own videos or watching other people's creations. See all iPhone app reviews.
Making your own video couldn’t be easier; all you need to do is click on the camera icon and then touch and hold the screen to record. You can also change your scenes by letting go of the screen and then pressing it again when you’re ready to start recording again. Vine then stiches your multiple clips together, it really is incredibly simple and intuitive to use.
The second area of Vine is watching other people’s Vines. This is where things get interesting, as Vine is as good or as bad as you make it. After all, Vine only shows you videos from people you follow, so the girl from school who uses social media to prolifically annoy you with pictures of her babies - that look like every other one of your school friends' babies - probably isn’t going to give you a good Vine experience. However, if you use Vine like you would Twitter and follow your favourite sports people and celebrities then Vine becomes pretty good and offers you yet another way to interact with people you admire (or just find humorous)

Instagram for Android updates UI

Instagram for Android has been updated and has been given a much cleaner looking UI. You’ll no longer have to rely on third-party tweaks in order to get the same look and feel of the popular photo and video-sharing app. According to the Instagram team, the update not only brings with it a UI overhaul for Android users, but also provides a faster and more responsive app. Profile screens will also load twice as fast and the app size itself has been cut in half. Finally, the Android version of the app gets a much-needed overhaul. Initial tests on the updated app confirm what the Instagram team had posted: it is definitely much faster than it was before it was updated. And boy is it pretty to look at now.

Tweet View Counts to iOS App

Image
Twitter is currently experimenting with a new feature that, like posts to Facebook groups, shows users just how many times their individual Tweets were seen by others. It's a move that, while useful, is sure to send some users – this author included – into a spiral of depression upon realizing that, no, your friends might not really care that much about your 140-character insight. According to reports from numerous Twitter users, a new "# views" item appears beneath the content of one's post – but above the left-facing arrow – for those using the official Twitter app on iOS. For those using Twitter in any other capacity, like posting or reading via good ol' Twitter dot com, the official Android client, a third-party app, or any other creative means for accessing the service, the view count currently appears to be an exclusive test – or full-fledged feature – on the iOS app. If we sound a bit lacking in detail, that's because we are.
