vine for androidVine for Android received a few updates following the announcement of Video for Instagram. When we first reviewed Vine for Android, we were disappointed that it lacked many features that were available to iOS users. This gets fixed for the most part in this update as Vine for Android finally gets Facebook sharing and hashtag support. Hashtags will allow users to search for related tweets and users. Facebook sharing was also added but the feature doesn’t seem to work on several of our phones. We get a message asking for permission to connect to Facebook but it never goes through with it.

While these changes are great, it’s still lacking one key feature that even its newest competitor, Instagram, has: front-facing camera support. Twitter has promised that front-facing camera support is coming down the line but the company is focusing on faster video capture and better video quality. You can get the Vine update in the download links below.
