Vine today transforms into Vine Camera, meaning that now’s the last chance for users to download their favourite clips.

The much-loved six-second video sharing app, which helped launch the careers of a multitude of new stars, is being simplified by Twitter, with the service set to live on as Vine Camera.

The new service will only allow users to post their 6.5-second clips to Twitter or save them to their camera roll.

Fortunately, downloading your favourite Vines is a pretty straightforward process.

You can save your videos, along with your captions and likes, comments and shares by opting for a download link from the Vine website. If you don’t mind losing your old social stats, you can instead download the clips, and the clips alone, to your phone.

Old videos will live on on the Vine website, and Twitter has promised to inform users of any upcoming changes to the site.
