The Audio Tweets Feature From Twitter
With the latest tweet from Twitter, it’s been defined that there are always scope of improvements. On condition that either you can see the gap & try to fill it or simply just look deeper.
The update had been rolled out yesterday when the company itself took it to Twitter & made the announcement. Apart from the traditional ways of typing your tweets & posting them on your page, now you can Tweet your voice as well. Yeah!!

Start recording & tweeting with audio instead of typing the words in the first place.
Over the years, photos, videos, gifs, and extra characters have allowed you to add your own flair and personality to your conversations. But sometimes 280 characters aren’t enough and some conversational nuances are lost in translation. So starting today, we’re testing a new feature that will add a more human touch to the way we use Twitter – your very own voice.
Tweeting with your voice is not too different from Tweeting with text. To start, open the Tweet composer and tap the new icon with wavelengths. You’ll see your profile photo with the record button at the bottom – tap this to record your voice. – Maya Patterson (Staff Product Designer) & Rémy Bourgoin (Senior Software Engineer)
