Vine rolled out an app update today with two new features designed to help users shoot better video. According to the company's blog post, Vine added features it's calling Sessions and Time Travel-which are tools to save posts as drafts, and edit the clips in a video timeline respectively. The update is available now for iOS and Android.
Vine has been slowly but steadily adding features since it launched early this year-most notably a front-facing camera. But the feature that probably more people have wanted than any other (and one that Instagram video already has) is the ability to edit the order of video clips. This new Time Travel feature does just that, letting users remove, replace or reorganize clips. The Sessions feature is essentially a way to save drafts before publishing. You can save up to ten posts in draft before publishing (and, presumably, edit them as well).
Until now, users have been constrained to adding video clips chronologically, and only working on one Vine at a time. We're really excited for what this is going to mean for everyone's favorite six-second tech news program, The Gingercast.
