Twitter has been testing with a select group the ability to mix different forms of media in a single Tweet so that people can share more visual context to express themselves beyond 280 characters.
Just recently, this update has been rolled out to everyone so users can start mixing and matching different types of media content, whether it’s a photo, GIF, or video (or two!) all in one Tweet. It’s incredibly easy: just select up to four types of media, upload them within the composer, and hit publish.
Here are some great examples of how creators, brands, and others on Twitter have been taking advantage of this update and bringing more engaging visual content to their timelines across music, sports, photography, and more:
Artists promoting music such as Nicki Minaj and Demi Lovato, giving tour highlights like K-pop group Seventeen, and celebrating career milestones like Usher.
Sports teams and leagues share game highlights like the Sixers and Celtics and athletes like Lebron James.
Creators sharing their behind-the-scenes process like @blackprints, @jakechams, @Brandonwoelfel and @hellotefi.
With this update, creators have more ways to tell a story, showcase their work and express themselves through a single Tweet.
