X Reportedly Allows 20 Photos and Videos Per Post, 9to5Mac Reports
X is ditching the old four-item cap for a much bigger 20-item media dump, 9to5Mac reports.
TL;DR
- 9to5Mac reports X lifted its media limit from 4 to 20 items per post.
- 9to5Mac reports the change is live on web and requires the latest app on mobile.
- It follows recent X app icon updates and X Money financial service.
9to5Mac reports that X, which capped photos and videos at four items since the Twitter era, now allows up to 20 per post.
According to 9to5Mac, the expanded sharing feature is already live on the web version. Mobile users may need to grab the latest X app update for iOS or Android to see the change.
9to5Mac notes this update follows last week’s addition of over a dozen new app icons. The outlet also mentions X pushed out a financial service called X Money earlier this year, while XChat, introduced this year as a separate app, was later shut down to integrate chat directly into the X app.
A post highlighted by 9to5Mac celebrates the shift: after a decade at four items, the new cap hits 20.
The Tea
This bump could let creators and regular users pack way more into single posts without splitting threads. It might shift how people share albums, stories, or quick updates on the platform, though only time will show if it sticks or sparks new habits.
