Big Changes Twitter Reveals  to Conversations and New Camera Features

Twitter is twisting some of the biggest changes in its social media service since it was first launched in 2006, which aims to make good on the promise of promoting the company's "healthy conversation".

The company is also introducing new features to increase the pictures and videos on the app in an effort to encourage users to use cameras to make more use of their smartphones, a step that can be found on its main competition app. Connects the same features. : Instagram and Snapchat


"We have deliberately tried to create images and footage that has landed in an event, different than other images and videos that you link to a tweet, the head of the consumer product of Twitter Keith Coleman said,

On Tuesday, the company presented its first approach to the public on a new prototype for the Twitter app, which is calling "twttr" in the first tweet of company CEO and co-founder Jack Dorsey, which includes a variety of changes in how Twitter is focused and operated on new formats for conversations and color-coded answers.

Prototype receives a tweet, which removes the number of engagement showing the number of retweets or "likes". This change has been made to make Twitter a little friend.

"We are really working to change policies to change the product and improve the health of the dialogue," Coleman said, pointing to faster and more "active" enforcement, in which the principles of hooves and conspiracy Spreading accounts are included.

Twitter, who has been billed for a long time as a social media site for "what's happening", has also made changes for his camera work. Speaking at Twitter's home south of Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, Texas, Coleman said that users will be able to post pictures, videos and livestreams when they capture them live.

One year was to update and both the platforms will be more camera-centric, as well as bring a splash of color on the Twitter timeline. This is the first major camera update since 2016, and the user will notice that the camera is now more easily available in the app: just by swiping from the timeline to the left.

Once in the camera, the user can add one of six different colors, plus captions, places and hashtags to the overlay on their photo, video or live broadcast.

The new camera is also "smart".

"It knows where you are and what is going on around you," Coleman said. If you are in SXSW, it knows that, and this will suggest adding SXSW hashtag to you.

New features meet users on Instagram and Snapchat. Twitter expects the increased camera users to post more videos, photos and live broadcasts on their platform.

Twitter also said that in the last one year, daily video views on the platform have doubled, but sharing photos for users is "very good".

Coleman said, "new ability to follow a person, like you can follow someone, is making Twitter very easy for the people."
