With Twitter Notes, users will be able to create articles with advanced formatting (i.e. italic, bold, underline, quotes and headings in separate fonts, adding numbered lists, etc.) and downloaded media (photos, videos, and even GIFs). ) will be placed in the middle of the text. After that, the article can be shared with subscribers on your page.

Details of the new feature

Notes is currently being tested among a limited number of users with paid subscriptions. If all goes well and implemented as announced today, its implementation could potentially change the way the platform is used. You will no longer need to break up voluminous thoughts into a long chain of tweets, but you can combine them into a single post.

TechCrunch cites two of the issues pushing the company to develop a new way to create posts:

• The need to engage with long message chains has led to the emergence of third-party bots that turn threads into links that combine individual tweets into a single article.
• In addition, users bypass the character limit on Twitter by creating text in their notebook on their phone or computer and then posting a screenshot of it. This works to get the message across to a large audience quickly, but is not good for Twitter because the text in the screenshot is not searchable and hashtags are not clickable.

Earlier, app researcher Jane Manchun Wong, who discovered a new feature in May, said that the article can also embed other individual tweets via URLs or custom bookmarks, and a special “Focus Mode” will let you expand and hide the article to full screen. Twitter sidebars… provided some images to show you what it looks like:

According to Watchful.ai, the current version of Twitter Notes appears to be available. Users will be able to view all the articles in their account using the new tab between “Tweets and Replies” and “Media Files”. But you can start creating them with a separate button in the main menu.
