You can now tweet pictures in 4K on mobile

It feels like a long time coming, but Twitter finally allows its mobile users to tweet and view pictures in 4K. Its web app already supports higher-resolution images (up to 4,096 x 4,096), but Android and iOS users were limited to half of that resolution before this update.

To use this new feature, you will need to go to the "Data usage" section of the settings menu in the app. You will need to enable both "high-quality images" (for viewing) and "high-quality image uploads" (for tweeting). You can select whether you'd see or upload these images on cellular and Wi-Fi, just Wi-Fi, or disabled entirely.

Microsoft gets rid of Xbox Live Gold requirement for free-to-play online multiplayer

If you play online multiplayer on free-to-play games on the Xbox, you will no longer need an Xbox Live Gold subscription.

You can check out the rest of the games here.

According to IGN, Microsoft plans to add more games as "more free-to-play games launch." In January, Microsoft tried to increase the price of Xbox Live Gold, which the company reversed after fans voiced their objection. Because of that backlash, the company said it would make free-to-play games available without Xbox Live Gold. And so, that time has come for this free experience.
