This week Twitter released a range of new features for their Xbox One app which was first released in 2016. This allows users to view all live streams from their own TV screens absolutely free. These latest updates make for a much more integrated experience. Users with a Twitter account can now sign in, view their timeline as well as see commentary to other videos. Another new option is to watch two videos at the same time, side by side, allowing you to discover more content at once. On the Xbox app, you now have access to Periscopes global map. This provides users with a range of videos from all around the world.
