Smaller groups can access content using Twitter's Circle feature. Released: All Information

 

The Twitter Circle function, which enables users to share particular tweets with chosen individuals, was made available to all platform users on Tuesday, according to an announcement from Twitter. In a "Circle," users may exchange tweets that are private to them with up to 150 other people. The functionality was initially introduced by the firm in May. With its Close Friends feature, rival Instagram also provides a comparable option that lets users share stories with particular friends.

The microblogging site disclosed that its most recent innovation, which is now available to all users, would let users choose up to 150 people to be added to their Circles. When a user writes a tweet, they have the choice of sharing it with their Twitter Circle, all of their followers, or as a standard tweet. The functionality of the feature on iOS, Android, and Twitter's website was verified by Gadgets 360.

Twitter claims that the functionality is intended to provide users greater control over who may view particular messages while also making them feel more at ease when tweeting. Along with enabling users to tweet private ideas to their pals, it also aims to do away with the necessity for additional or alternate accounts. According to the firm, users can also prevent switching back and forth between protected and public account settings.

Only those in a user's Twitter Circle will be able to view and respond to these tweets, similar to how Twitter formerly permitted users to restrict who could react to their tweets. The Close Friends function on Instagram, which is owned by Meta, allows users to add certain of their followers to a more exclusive list and share private stories with them.

"We want to make individuals feel more at ease when Tweeting and provide them a method to talk more discreetly with the folks they select. After testing and receiving feedback, we released Twitter Circle to everyone with this in mind. We'll keep working to make Twitter better and more entertaining so that everyone can participate in public discourse on their own terms, said Jay Sullivan, general manager of Twitter's consumer and revenue product, in a prepared statement.
