X users can already scroll through short videos by tapping on a video on the timeline and scrolling up. This new tab for videos is just a dedicated section for these videos. Plus, this is not the first time the company has tried to create a new home for videos.
An app reverse engineer had previously previewed a media tab for videos, but this is the first time X is making an official announcement.
The social network has lately been focusing on video experiences. Last year, it launched a standalone TV app to show videos from different organizations and creators.
