Micro-video app and social media network Vine sadly came to an end at the beginning of 2017. But ardent fans of the platform may have hope yet. Earlier this year, Vine’s co-founder Dom Hofmann tweeted out a simple image in the app’s trademark green that read “V2,” after previously hinting that he was working on developing a new version of the app. Now, Hofmann has taken to Twitter to announce Byte, a new looping video app that is set to launch in spring 2019. He confirmed that Byte is the new name for “V2.”
