Twitter Blue users can now upload 2-hour long videos
If you have subscribed to Twitter Blue, you can now upload videos that are up to two hours long. As per Twitter, the video file size limit has also been increased from 2GB to 8GB. And that's not it. So far, Twitter allowed long video uploads only from the web but now, it is possible to upload from the iOS app as well.
The maximum quality of video upload is 1080p
While Twitter has increased the duration of video uploads for its paid users from 60 minutes to 2 hours, the maximum upload quality remains capped at 1080p. On Android, Twitter Blue users can upload 10-minute-long videos only but that may change soon. Those who do not have a Twitter Blue subscription can upload videos of up to 140 seconds.
Twitter Blue also offers several benefits to users
Twitter Blue, which starts at Rs. 650 per month in India, provides a number of benefits, along with the blue checkmark. To mention a few, paid users will be able to edit published tweets within 30 minutes. They will also be able to "undo" tweets, which means they are allowed to preview and revise the tweet before it is posted on the platform.
Twitter Blue subscribers will also see lesser ads
With Twitter Blue, users can reset the navigation bar and also get text formatting options, like the ability to italicize or make text bold. Paid users will be able to see "Top Articles," which displays the most-shared articles from people they follow. The company is also working on a feature to display lesser ads to paid users in the future.
