Twitter Notes: Company testing long form content feature in select regions

With the addition of Notes, how users interact with Twitter may alter soon.

Twitter has acknowledged that it is working on a solution to allow you to create lengthier posts. Twitter has stated that it is developing an in-app Notes feature that would allow users to create lengthier messages that will be connected to tweets. Twitter has already begun testing the functionality on its users.

"A small group of writers is assisting us in testing Notes. People in most countries may read them on and off Twitter," the firm stated. According to sources, the service is presently available to a limited number of customers in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Ghana. Twitter demonstrated the feature in two distinct GIFs. Users may use the "Write" button "tab to begin composing a Note, and when done, they can embed the Note into their tweet.

Twitter users are now forced to publish long-form information in the form of fragmented threads, which can be difficult to read. Aside from authoring Twitter threads, users also compose long-form material on other applications, save it as a pdf or jpg file, and then screenshot and share it on Twitter.
