Vine Can Now Measure Your Addiction to Looping Video

Vine(NEW YORK) — Vine, the six-second looping video platform owned by Twitter, has figured out a way to let you know if your videos are “popular and interesting.”

Or, conversely, if you have the habit of being mesmerized by looping videos.

Starting Tuesday, a loop counter will be added to all Vines, allowing people to see how many times a video has been looped, no matter where it is embedded online.

Loop counts won’t impact Vine’s “popular now” section, however users will be able to see just how transfixing a Vine truly is by checking out the loop counts in the iOS and Android apps as well as on Vine.co.

Vine said in a blog post it has been tracking loop counts since April 3. However, with the metrics being introduced on Tuesday, some popular videos may have a “+” symbol next to it, meaning that there are likely more loops than listed.
