The American microblogging platform, Twitter is testing a new feature for iOS app users that allows them to browse through the tweets of a specific profile.
The platform recently introduced a new option for some users to check out this new features before everyone else. Twitter announced last month that subscribers can use its paid Twitter Blue service to obtain early access to new features under the new Labs banner.
By clicking on the search icon top right corner next to the three-dot menu, the user can enter the desired term. When you click enter, a screen similar to that of the existent search functionality shows up, but the search term will change to format From Username Term.
Features in Twitter’s program include pinned conversations on iOS, which lets users pin direct message (DM) conversations to the top of the list, and the ability to post longer video uploads from a desktop computer.
Twitter has been selectively testing and releasing features based on a variety of factors. For example, their new Communities feature is still invite-only, while Facebook-like Tweet reactions are being tested in many regions. The company is also working on Professional profiles that allow users to turn their accounts into career-focused ones.
The platform recently rolled out a feature giving every user on iOS and Android the ability to host its audio chatroom feature Spaces, almost one year after launching it.
Earlier this week Instagram rolled out a new Twitter Card preview feature for posting content on Twitter from Instagram. Users will now be able to share content from Instagram to Twitter and that a preview of the content will actually be available. This includes a preview of the photo in a Twitter Card.
