Twitter rolls out Bigger Images Previews for iOS, Android Users
Popular social media platform, Twitter has rolled out the ability to see bigger and better images. Earlier, the instant messaging platform used to crop images to fit it in a certain size and the preview often resulted to be misleading. However, the company will stop cropping images and showcase them in better previews. The company also recently introduced a new COVID-19 SOS Resources page in India that shows tweets providing details about essentials components such as hospital beds, medicines, and oxygen in real-time.

Twitter announced the rollout of bigger and better image previews on its own platform. The change has been rolled out for iOS and Android users both. With this, Twitter will no longer crop a long image to suit its interface aesthetics, but instead offer a wholesome preview that doesn’t crop integral portions of the photo. These previews will eliminate the need for users to open the photo and look at it at a second glance. Twitter confirms that images with 2:1 and 3:4 aspect ratios will show in full.
