Twitter now allows you to shoot and upload landscape videos


Twitter now allows you to shoot and upload landscape videos

Sharing video via Twitter just got a lot better, as the social platform now allows users to shoot and share landscape videos.

Prior to this announcement, videos taken via the Twitter app had to be square.

To use the new landscape mode in the Twitter app, simply select to add a photo to your post. Select the camera icon, and click the red video button. Turn your phone sideways, and start shooting!

With this small change, it’s worth wondering how long it will be until Periscope makes a similar change and allows landscape video to be streamed via its app.
