Vine added new discovery features and launched on the Apple Watch

Fresh on the heels of Snapchat announcing Story Explorer, Vine has today announced a new way to discover Vines following a similar theme. When browsing in a channel or through your own feed, simply swipe left on a Vine to see other content that is of a similar nature. In the example provided as part of Vine’s blog post, you can see Vines of Justin Bieber across multiple accounts, like J-Bieb’s himself, the AMAs, and more. Vine actually launched a Similar Vines feature back in October for Android and brought it to iOS shortly after, but now users have the ease of simply swiping left to find them. Before, users had to click into the “Similar Vines” tab under the post. Vine wouldn’t go into too much detail describing how it determines which Vines are similar, but the company did say this upon introduction of the feature: “As you and your fellow Vine viewers watch and interact with Vines, that activity helps us determine which posts to show.”
