Twitter, the social media giant is currently testing a new feature for all its consumers. This new feature is very similar to sending voice recordings through WhatsApp. However, this feature will not be on the same scale as the social messaging app. In fact, here the scale is global, which means everyone around the world will be able to listen to your voice tweets.
This new feature is a part of making an effort to add more “human touch” to the way users interact with the app. Recently, the company also launched the 24hrs story feature, Fleets in India. Voice tweets will let users tweet audio messages instead of typing their thoughts.

Twitter introduces new Voice tweet feature
The new feature will allow users to record voice messages up to 140 seconds and will automatically group longer messages into threads. When someone taps on your audio tweet, it will play all the voice clips in succession in case of multiple tweets grouped under threads.
