According to The Verge, the updates will include a feature that will let the users send a direct message to multiple people in separate conversations, without requiring them to start a group chat.
Through this feature, users will be able to share a tweet in up to 20 separate DM chats.
“The feature is coming to the iOS and web versions of Twitter first, and Android soon,” as per The Verge.
