Elon Musk, the company's new owner, has revealed that voice and video calling capabilities would soon be added to Twitter.

Users won't need a phone number in order to utilize the service, which will work with Android, iOS, PC, and Mac.

Musk personally made the revelation on Twitter, calling the calls "a unique set of factors" that would turn Twitter into "the effective global address book." The launch date of the functionality was not specified by him.

The ability to call through audio and video is a component of Musk's plan for Twitter to transform into a "everything app." According to Musk, Twitter could serve as a platform for deeper interpersonal connections rather than just a venue for the dissemination of news and information.

The audio and video calling capabilities would significantly improve Twitter and increase its ability to compete with other social media sites like Zoom and Facebook. 

Businesses and organizations who utilize Twitter for customer service or other objectives would benefit greatly from the capabilities as well.

Reactions to Musk's announcement have been conflicted. While some users have praised the announcement, others have voiced worries about security and privacy. The implementation of the audio and video calling facilities and how people will respond to them are still to be seen.

Under Musk's ownership, Twitter has also undergone additional improvements in addition to the audio and video calling capabilities. The business has declared that it will loosen its guidelines for content filtering and introduce new tools to improve the platform's usability.

How these modifications will impact Twitter's popularity and user base is yet to be determined. But Musk's unveiling of the audio and video calling capabilities is a big step in the direction of his goal of turning Twitter into the "everything app."
