Twitter Extends Test of Voice Tweets to More iOS Users

The social network said it continues to work on transcription to make them more accessible

Twitter is extending its test of voice tweets to more of its iOS users, as well as continuing its work to make transcription of those voice tweets more accessible to everyone.

The social network began testing voice tweets with a limited group of iOS users in June, accessible for consumption by all users, whether they had access to the feature or not, and limited to 140 seconds.

However, shortly after the test began, Twitter received a host of feedback from users pointing out that the feature was rolled out without a means to support those who are visually impaired, deaf or hard of hearing.
