Beginning July 26, 2023, Twitter Blue subscribers will be able to download videos posted on X by other users. This is announced on the ' How to share and watch videos on Twitter ' page in Twitter's Help Center. At the top of the page is 'New feature: Download videos with Twitter Blue' 'After July 25, 2023, authenticated users will be able to download specific videos. See below for details. This feature will be released on iOS first, followed by Android and web soon.'



According to the item ' Downloading videos on Twitter ' in the middle of the page, only Twitter Blue subscribers (authenticated users) can download videos. However, the following four points should be noted.

User controls:
Beginning July 25, 2023, videos posted to Twitter will be available for download by authenticated users unless opted out by disabling the 'Allow video download' option for videos while composing a Tweet. . However, videos posted before July 25, 2023 cannot be downloaded.

age limit:
For accounts of users under the age of 18, the video download setting is automatically turned off and cannot be changed.

Third Party Sharing:
If downloads are disabled, Twitter users will not be able to share videos directly to third-party platforms, but will be able to share links to Tweets.

Privacy settings:
If you want more control over who can see your Tweets and videos, learn how to change your privacy settings . This gives you more control over your content and who can access it.

To download the video, tap the three-point icon in the upper right corner of the tweet and tap 'Download video'.

To prevent the video from being downloaded, after posting the video, tap 'Edit' at the bottom right of the video and opt out from 'Settings'. However, once you tweet, you cannot change this setting later, so if you want to prevent the video from being downloaded after posting, you need to delete the tweet itself.




In addition, overseas media The Verge said, ``Twitter Blue users can now post videos of up to two hours, and considering that in the past there was a problem that a whole movie was posted on Twitter , Unless X does not have a moderation function that can properly handle copyrighted content, X may continue to be exposed to legal troubles.'
