Twitter closes Periscope app in 2021
The characteristics of Periscope, which had its most glorious times in the beginning of the decade that is now ending, were gradually integrated by the Twitter application itself into services such as Twitter Live, which made the first one unnecessary.
In the coming days, Periscope accounts will no longer be able to be created and in March 2021 the application will no longer be available in virtual stores. Until then, Internet users who wish to do so will be able to download a copy of their videos and data to keep them.
Some personal news: the Periscope app will be going away next year. We’re here to say goodbye. ?
We appreciate all the support, learnings, and broadcasts from our vibrant creator community. More on our difficult decision to discontinue the app: https://t.co/jZWjDlsRHk (1/2) pic.twitter.com/Kfgvocq31O
