Video app Vine launches for Android

Twitter's video sharing service Vine has made the leap to Android.

The app, available for Apple iOS devices since January, allows users to shoot and share short, looping clips that last as long as six seconds. So far, 13 million people have registered to use Vine.

Most of the features for the Android version are similar to what's available on iOS, adding the new option to zoom on videos. Extra features such as front-facing camera support, search and Facebook sharing are coming soon.

The app works on devices running Android 4.0 operating software.
