As it is a popular social media site so it always tried to give convenience to its users. It has a lot of features that are very effective like we easily post and share videos. It is continuously updated their features to compete with other media sites and meet the demand of its users.

You may be hearing about the new feature that is added in the app like time is everything and conversation insight tools. Nowadays twitter also testing for a tweet schedule option, I hope that it will work.        

  In that article, I am also telling you about the twitter new feature. Let discuss it.

What new?

I think the people who use social media sites like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, to some extent always worry about their privacy and security. Thinking about is not wrong because as a technology developed, it benefits us but also distorted my people’s life.

We see in our daily like a different account was hacked and used for the wrong purpose. The simple thing is that privacy and security of our personal information and social account is very important. It matters a lot.

You may wonder why I am talking about privacy. Do you have any thoughts about why? It’s simple because the new feature of twitter is related to your security. The twitter always tried to make sure that their users are saved and Sucre. For that purpose, the twitter launched a feature push notification.      

What are the push notifications?

Twitter announced a new set of alerts that they can follow when there is a login from a new unknown device. The purpose to keep its user and their accounts safe. 

So, what is new?

You think that what is new in it, twitter already sends us an email notification when we log in from different devices and all the other social media sites do it.

But In addition to sending an email if it detects a suspicious login from a new device for the first time, Twitter will now also send the user a push notification within its app as well. 

When will it useful?

It is useful in the following conditions:

  1. Only be useful if an account hasn’t already been compromised.
  2. They are only sent following new logins through the iOS and Android apps, twitter.com, and the mobile web. 

Is any problem related to this feature?

It’s a very good and simple way to improve your account security, but if you are using an incognito browser or mode then it could also be problematic for you. Why? If you login to your twitter account from the incognito browsers then you will receive an alert each time.

What is the solution?

There will be a simple way to switch these notifications off, with a new toggle added to Twitter’s push notifications options, if you want to cut them off entirely, you can easily control your app permission anyway. 

Conclusion 

Twitter is continually working for its users and improve on-platform engagement. The new feature like this help to add extra functionality, providing more opportunity to keep user accounts safe, and the platform more generally, free of manipulation.
