X begins testing Video Spaces with Premium subscribers

0 11


Spaces is a popular audio chatting feature on X that lets users host online sessions. While the feature has only allowed for audio chatting since its inception, the Dogedesigner account on X announced the launch of Video Spaces on Wednesday. The new video feature lets hosts open the phone’s camera during a session and reveal their faces or environment to the viewers.

Once you want to start a Spaces session, a new toggle called “enable video”  will appear in the app. The session host can also choose between front and rear cameras as well as landscape or vertical.

You can now start video sessions via Spaces on X

The Video Spaces is not yet widely available. And it has been rolled out to a limited number of X Premium users on iOS. Hopefully, Android users will also get the feature in the coming months. It remains to be seen if Elon Musk will make Video Spaces available to all users or offer it as a Premium perk. Since the feature has just launched, it still needs to be fine-tuned. Users reported several issues while trying to start video sessions.

If you’ve already used Twitch, the Video Spaces seem familiar. For now, it only lets the session’s host turn on the video and have a one-way video communication with participants. The feature might later turn into a video conference app like Zoom, with every participant being able to turn on the video and speak.

Last year, Musk promised to bring a video feature to Spaces. The feature is now live but still far from what the billionaires promised. Back then, Musk’s description of the video in Spaces was more like a video conferencing app.

“We’re working on adding video to Spaces so that it’ll just be a simple thing where you can turn the video on or off. And then the person who is speaking, the video will switch to them, like a group call or something like that,” Elon Musk said in December 2023. Video Spaces has just launched, and it will certainly undergo many changes by the end of the year.
