    Twitter Is Testing ‘Save For Later’ Button

    1
    By AdeO on October 10, 2017 Social Media, Twitter

    Twitter is planning on launching a new tool that will allow its 300 million users to save tweets privately. The new feature will allow users to create a list of tweets they want to come back to, rather than tapping the heart button, which can suggest to others that you like something or endorse it when you don’t.

    Other ways users have been saving things for later include direct messaging themselves, retweeting, or the process of opening a link in a new tab and emailing the link to themselves or compiling a list of other note-taking apps.

    According to Twitter product manager Jesar Shah, lots of users wanted to have an easier and private way of saving tweets for later, especially in Japan.

    A prototype shared by Shah shows a new “bookmarks” feature that can be accessed by tapping the ‘more’ menu — three buttons on Android, a downward arrow on iOS — in each tweet. The list of bookmarked tweets can then be accessed from the menu where lists, moments and other features are available. Shah notes the design will likely change over time.

    Hi Twitter! Many of you (especially in Japan!) have said you’d like to be able to easily + privately save Tweets for later. Right now, people bookmark Tweets by liking, DM-ing to themselves, or Retweeting. But this could be easier. https://t.co/iQ9W9mB1uV

    Currently, there’s no timeline for the feature’s launch but Twitter is seeking user feedback on the feature as it builds it.

    The planned bookmarking feature follows Twitter’s recent announcement that it’s testing a 280 character limit for tweets, doubling the current 140 character limit.
