In an effort to improve the user experience, the Twitter App has announced a new feature that will allow people to know in advance if they are about to participate in a conversation that can be annoying. In a recent tweet, Twitter Support asks, “Have you ever wanted to know the mood of a conversation before joining?”. And then he continues: “We’re testing prompts on Android and iOS that warn you if the conversation you’re about to join could overheat.” In short, if the conversation is hot, Twitter will let you know.
Ever want to know the vibe of a conversation before you join in? We’re testing prompts on Android and iOS that give you a heads up if the convo you’re about to enter could get heated or intense.
This is a work in progress as we learn how to better support healthy conversation. pic.twitter.com/x6Nsn3HPu1

Twitter: App adds a feature to get you away from awkward conversations
The Twitter App recently announced a feature to alert users when a conversation can become uncomfortable. An option still being tested, given that the platform is working to try to better understand when to warn users to remove them from a conversation. Not surprisingly, the option is named “And heats “. At the moment, we don’t know how many users are really affected by this test, but what is certain is that the function comes along with other innovations proposed by the platform.
Among the new options that the company is working on, for example, we find that of archived tweets. Apparently, the company is considering hiding the tweets after 30/60/90 days, or archiving them after a full year. And that’s not all. The Twitter App is also working on the possibility for users to select i follower who can see the tweets they liked. Finally, users will be given the opportunity to remove themselves from a public conversation: an option that seems to be tested starting from the end of 2021. In short, many new features to improve the user experience. And facilitate the protection of privacy.
