Vine has added a new button to channels that allows you to watch every video back-to-back without having to manually scroll through individual posts. This “watch” button appears next to the follow button on a channel and performs the same functionality as the “Play All” button that YouTube offers.
This update is available for both iOS and Android.

Apps like Vine, Snapchat, and even Facebook have invested an effort into getting you to watch more videos, and one solution is this “watch” button. While each clip is only six seconds long, it might be enticing enough to make you want to know what else that creator has done. This can certainly benefit Vine stars who put a lot of their resources into the Twitter-owned property. What’s more, if you planned out a series of videos, having a “watch” feature could help share that story with viewers.

With this “watch” button, could we eventually see a miniseries with six-second episodes that you can watch on Vine from beginning to end by automatically going from one clip to the next?
This is the latest option Vine has added to give viewers greater control over their viewing preferences. The app also includes a way to sort clips by oldest to newest, by newest to oldest, and by what’s popular.
While auto-playing videos, if you want to watch over and over again, just tap and hold on the screen.
