In a groundbreaking update to the popular social media platform X, previously known as Twitter, Elon Musk has unveiled plans to incorporate video and audio call functionalities into the app in the near future.
This strategic move follows closely on the heels of X’s introduction of a reward system tailored for content creators who are part of the Twitter Blue subscription program.
The recent unveil of these plans underscores X’s commitment to expanding its offerings and enhancing user experience.
Elon Musk himself took to X to share the exciting news with the community.
He conveyed that the upcoming video and audio call features will be seamlessly compatible with a wide range of devices, including iOS, Mac, Android, and PC.
One notable aspect highlighted by Musk is that the utilization of these new communication tools will not be contingent upon the provision of a mobile phone number.
This departure from the norm aims to ensure privacy and convenience for users.
Musk’s statement,
“Video & audio calls coming to X. Works on iOS, Android, Mac & PC. No phone number needed. X is the effective global address book. That set of factors is unique,” underscores the platform’s innovative approach to communication and networking.
