Vine for Android now includes mentions and tags in your videos
It took a few days but, the version of Vine for Android that equates this video social network to that of iPhone, it's here . This is a rather interesting update considering that it brings with it basic functions for a social network, increasing the possibilities of relationship between users and allowing a better and more convenient video categorization, which makes it easier to find vines of any kind.
This is the version 1.3.4 of Vine for Android, an update that is not surprising for presenting really genuine news, since equates the possibilities with what has already been seen on iPhone, but that does help its development as social network on the platform Android Its list of news is quite short, finding functions focused on what a current social network should be able to do. Thus, the two important points reside directly in the mentions and the tags Colons thatTwitter, the company that owns Vine, knows very well.
As for the mentions, it is about that function that allows a user to call the attention of others by typing your username after the at symbol @This causes the mentioned users to receive a notification to review a comment or avideo Thus, it is enough to write @username to carry out this function, being able to do it both at the time to describe a video before posting it as in the comments section, either from a vine of your own or not. With this, no one can avoid ignoring or calling attention to some content that may be of interest. A basic measure for a current social network in which user relationships are as strong as the content that is shared.
The other strong point of the update lies in the tags or hastags These are created to categorize videos and comments A good way to find these contents again by looking for that word that defines them after the symbol hash A function that Vine has already been in charge of promoting for several months, especially after the introduction of categories when searching for your videos. However, with this update, this function is improved by entering the autocompletion when writing the labels. That is, you only need to type several letters after the hash mark to bring up suggestions or the whole word. This speeds up the writing process and also prevents errors. Something that may seem trivial but is very helpful.
Along with these functions, and as usual in updates, the resolution of small problems found in previous versions. In short, an update that, without attracting attention, offers interesting news for this social network that is still in a stage of strong growth, despite being at the shadow of the well-known Instagramversion 1.3.4 of Vine for Android is now fully available for download free via Google Play.
