Social media platform Now users will be able to attach maximum 20 photos and videos in one post. Earlier, there was a limit of sharing only four media files in one post. Giving information about this change, the company has said that the new feature is available on both mobile app and web.
After this update, users will not need to create separate posts or threads to share multiple photos and videos. Those who share event updates, travel photos, marketing content and other visual posts can especially benefit from this.
