“This will be your go-to companion for a high-quality, immersive entertainment experience on a larger screen,” she wrote.

The CEO added that the app is still being built and asked for X users to share their ideas.

Last month, Yaccarino declared X’s intention to become a “video first platform”. Almost all social networks have been shifting towards the same field, blatantly taking inspiration from reigning video platforms, especially TikTok.
