After much anticipation, Twitter finally released its application video came to Android. The Google mobile operating system now can enjoy almost the same application that is available for iOS, since some features are not yet enabled until the next update. Now, expectations are placed on users that will get added in these first few weeks, considering the amount of Android users around the world there. However, users with terminals that have a version lower than 4.0 can not install it on their computers.
Vine
Android is generating anticipation for weeks , with some rumors that were validated with elusive statements of the company. However, here it is, ready for download on Google Play. Currently, the application has a rating of 3.8 on Google Play , based on 457 reviews. Some of the main comments indicate some complaints about the interface, but nothing so far on the operation. Keep in mind that, at least at this early stage, I came to Android does not compare to its equivalent in iOS.
Some features are missing to start. But developers have announced that they will be available in the coming weeks through updates (if we enjoy the moment, it is desirable to enable the automatic update of the application). What they do have in common Vine for Android and iOS is the autoplay videos six seconds, the sound, the functions of Explore, Popular and Trending, the function to find friends, and function to invite our colleagues to participate. On the other hand, Android users will enjoy a particular functionality that is not available for the iPhone: the ability to zoom .
side constraints, the Android version came not allow us to enjoy some of the recent updates to the application. There will be support for the front camera, no searches, mentions and hashtags . They will be coming soon. Another aspect to consider is that, being such an early stage, the best way to find Vine if we are looking through Google Play is through keyword “Vine Co.” , since not positioned within the first results for the moment. You can also authorize the download from the web, from the official link Google Play .
Beyond the initial constraints, will be interesting to see the evolution came during these early days. We can not help make the comparison of the output Instagram Android , an application that also took his first steps on iOS but then enabled a version for the Google system that ended becoming a real success. A few days after his arrival in Android, Instagram had added millions of new users and also finalized its sale to Facebook for a billion dollars. I was not so bad. Meanwhile, Vine has Twitter support, their initial developers, who claim that the app currently has 13 million users . With the penetration of Android on the market, this number could rise quickly.
Vine, which was released in late January this year, took less to come to Android, which can be an advantage. Recall that the application created by Twitter lets you create animated video clips 6 seconds, similar to the popular as GIFs, which can be shared on Twitter and Facebook, and do not require the installation of came to be seen by other users . Twitter’s proposal was unique, risky, and so far have done quite well. There are many users who wished came the arrival of Android, not only for recreational purposes but also creative. Android came to work in a different way the images on the internet, providing a more fluid static images.
For brands, I came to Android can also be an interesting story. On the one hand, is a channel to handle, however, with an interesting strategy can be maximized. With Vine can create mini shorts just seconds, and tell stories in a different way. The most important limitation comes from the operating system side, since Ice Cream Sandwich will need to operate at least I came to Android. However, this can also be a wise decision on the part of developers.
Vine for Android can be downloaded for free through Google Play, and will soon have access to the missing features that are present in iOS. Android users who read us, have already tried?
