Twitter has added two new features in Twitter app for Android and iOS. Now, users can add multiple photos in a single tweet and tag friends in those photos. Updates are rolling out gradually, so you will get in coming days.
“We’re rolling out two new mobile features that make photos on Twitter more social. One is photo tagging, which lets you tag the people in your photo; the other is the ability to include up to four photos in a Tweet,” Twitter announced.
Tag feature lets you tag up to 10 people in a photo. Most notable thing is that tagging will not affect the character count in the tweet. Every time you get tagged in a photo, Twitter will send you a notification.
If you think that getting tagged in annoying, you can change the privacy settings to select who can tag you. Default option is set to “Allow anyone to tag me in photos.” You must review you ” Settings and Privacy” section if you want to avoid being spammed.
You can now share up to 4 photos in a single tweet and it will automatically create a collage. Just tap the image to view it in full. This feature is available on iPhone and will come to Android and twitter.com in coming days.
Both photo tagging and multiple photos in tweet will be displayed in embedded tweets.
