Twitter issues second major update for its Vine for Android app

Close on the heels of the last week-issued 1.01 major update of the early June release of Twitter's Vine for Android app, a substantial second update - update 1.02 - was released for the app on Friday.

The two significant updates for the Vine for Android app were released in quick succession, one after the other, apparently because the app received some harsh reviews because of the fact that the few-months-old Vine for iOS app had notably more features than its Android counterpart.

With Twitter's Vine service essentially allowing the users to share six-second micro-videos on Twitter and Facebook, the original version of the Vine for Android app only enabled the posting of Vine videos on Twitter, giving Facebook a miss. However, that issue was fixed up by Twitter in the 1.01 update of the app.

In addition, the app's update 1.01 also brought on the ability to clear the video cache, and various bugfixes; and the newly-released 1.02 update of the app includes support for front-facing camera as well as better video uploads, among some other features and functionality.

With both the updates having made the experience of clicking videos faster and easier, a reasonable Vine video-sharing experience now, finally, unfolds for the users of the Vine for Android app.
