Twitter is one of the best popular social media platforms, and it’s been quite strict with what Content its users are posting. In recent days, many users, both android and iOS, have been facing ‘content is not available error’ on Twitter while viewing gifs, images, and videos.
In this article, we’ll tell you why you’re seeing this error and several methods for how to fix it.
Why are Twitter gifs not working?
If you’re facing the problem of gifs not working, there might be a problem with your data or wifi network. Try switching to a different network, or you can also try to reboot your device and see if it helps.
Why are Twitter videos content not available?
Sometimes, Twitter videos content might not play due to cached data. You can try clearing cache and cookies on your device’s mobile browser or Twitter app. You can do this from settings. Also, the video you’re trying to play might be sensitive and possibly, Twitter is blurring it.
Why are Twitter photos not loading?
Twitter photos not loading issues can arise due to slow internet connection or too much load on Twitter servers. You should clear your app data and cookies and also restart your phone to check if it fixes the issue.
Do I need to change Twitter media settings?
If you’re unable to watch videos or gifs and if pictures are not loading, it’s possible that you might need to change media settings on Twitter. This setting identifies potentially sensitive and inappropriate Content and blurs it from being visible to you on your feed.
These contents may be violent or contain nudity. In that case, if you want to change it, you can go to Settings and privacy on your Twitter profile and then go to privacy and safety.
Next, select Content you see and turn on ‘Display media that may contain sensitive Content.’
What does it mean – this media is not available because it includes Content you’ve chosen not to see?
By default, Twitter sets each of its users’ settings that blur Content and doesn’t let you see any unsuitable and sensitive content, thereby the message “this media is not available because it includes content you’ve chosen not to see” on your screen. However, Twitter allows you to disable this setting officially and easily see Content if you want to.
