Vine Masher Lets Users Create Shareable Vine Video Playlists

A new web-based application named Vine Masher lets users create a playlist of Vine videos that can be easily shared with friends and social networks. The application is meant for those users who find it difficult to share multiple Vine videos to friends one by one.

To create a Vine playlist, users can search for a related term on the search bar on the website. The results of the search show up on the right-side bar alongside the users Hotlist with previous favourites, and users can mix and match from here by dragging and dropping up to nine Vine videos onto a grid-like timeline to create a playlist. The playlist plays the videos one after another in the same sequence set by the user.

However, users would need to connect their Twitter accounts before sharing their Vine video mashups, as The Next Web notes. Customisations like trimming of Vines are also possible. The Vine Masher website already has a number of user-created and publicly-shared playlists on the home page.

On a related note, Vine on Monday released an exclusive version of its app for kids, called Vine Kids. The new app has been "made for ages 5 and under." As per its listing. The app is limited to iOS devices only and requires iOS 7.0 or later to run.

The Vine Kids for iOS uses animated characters and the company claims that "kids can watch videos that are appropriate for a young audience." The app has been tailored for kids and includes quirky sounds when the screen is tapped. Swiping right or left will show a new Vine.
