Previously, when someone shared a Periscope link, clicking it would push you into the Periscope app. Now you'll be able to view Persicopes, both in real time and as replays, like you can view videos or GIFs in tweets. The video will go fullscreen when you tap it, and you'll be able to see hearts and comments on the stream just like you can in the Periscope app.
Periscopes autoplay within your Twitter feed like other media. To turn off autoplay, go into Twitter settings on your mobile device and tap "Never play videos automatically."
The new feature is currently only available on the iOS app, and it is rolling out "over the next few days." Twitter said it would be available for the web and Android "as soon as they're ready."
