The company also mentioned that users are able to upload and watch videos up to 3 hours long in the app details. However, the Twitter Blue support page<\/a> says that subscribers can upload videos up to 2 hours long.<\/p>\n Notably, the company\u2019s Twitter Lite app<\/a> still has all the Twitter branding. But it\u2019s not surprising given that the app was last updated in May 2021.<\/p>\n Earlier this week, the social media company changed its official handle from @twitter to @X along with other affiliated handles shedding the \u201cTwitter\u201d moniker. The owner of the original @X, Gene X Hwang<\/a>\u00a0of the corporate photography and videography studio\u00a0Orange Photography<\/a>, told TechCrunch<\/a> that the company just took over the handle without any warning or compensation<\/a>. In a letter, the company offered Hwang \u00a0a tour of X\u2019s HQ and X merchandise a \u201creflection of our appreciation.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
