Social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, has increased the number of photos and videos users can share in a single post from four to 20.
The change marks a fivefold increase in the platform’s media-sharing limit, allowing users to upload up to 20 photos, videos, or a combination of both in one post.
The move appears to bring X closer to a feature already available on its rival platform Instagram, owned by Meta, which allows users to share up to 20 photos or videos in a single post.
Jonah Katz, head of mobile engineering at X, announced the update in a post on the platform.
He said that for the past 10 years, X had allowed users to share only four photos or videos per post. However, the limit has now been increased to 20.
Katz also demonstrated the new feature by sharing 20 photos in a single post.
According to the company, the feature has already been introduced on X’s web version, while its rollout on mobile applications is currently underway.
Users who cannot yet access the feature on their mobile devices may be able to use it after updating the X app to the latest version.
