Twitter testing new CoTweets feature for co-authored tweets

2022-07-08 1

American microblogging and social networking platform Twitter has started testing a new CoTweets feature this week feature which allows two accounts to co-author a tweet and both be tagged in a single tweet.

The company has confirmed to The Verge that this new feature is now live for some users for a limited amount of time after the company started experimenting with the idea earlier this year.

Several Twitter users have been testing the CoTweets feature and the experience allows the main tweet author to invite someone else to be tagged in the tweet and discuss the contents over DM.

Instagram has been offering a similar co-author feature on its service since last year, and it's reasonable to assume that influencers and brands will be quick to use a Twitter feature like this one, as per The Verge.
