X will soon gain a “timestamp tagging” feature for videos.
A screenshot posted by Andrea Conway, a designer at X, suggests that the feature will allow users to attach specific timestamps to a post’s description, allowing viewers to easily navigate to precise moments within a video.
Conway didn’t specify when the feature will roll out publicly, or if it will be limited to X Premium subscribers.
Several users expressed their thoughts on Conway’s post.
When a user said: “Nice! Do you know if there are any plans to show timestamps somewhere when video is playing (currently only shows when scrubbing I think on mobile),” she said in response: “Ya! looking at some fit & finishes changes here too.”
Responding to another comment, Conway clarified that “for now, timestamps will only link from posts/replies containing a single video attachment”.
On the other hand, X owner Elon Musk on Thursday said: “We’re putting a lot of effort in making X Pro the power user tool it should be.”
Also, when a user said that the platform is working on a feature that will allow users to check if they are shadowbanned or not and let them know the reason for the same, Musk replied: “High priority.”
On Wednesday, he posted, “Immersive video on X is starting to get good. Just swipe up for the next video.”
