It’s very difficult to know where Twitter, the social network now called X, is heading. But the future seems to revolve around being the all-in-one app where you can make video calls, send money to your parents, and if there’s time, tweet about politic

Twitter is going through a serious crisis of identity. Today, Elon Musk announced that X will feature an audio and video calling function, something that will polarize many people, but I’m looking forward to seeing how it works once it’s finally available.

It’s available on all platforms and doesn’t require a phone number

Musk announced on his X account that the possibility of making video calls or audio calls will work on iOS, Android, Mac, and PC. So, you have all the major platforms covered.

Another advantage is that you won’t need a phone number to initiate the call. This suggests that the function will likely work solely based on the person’s username.

Another thing Musk has pointed out is that this feature will turn X into an effective global address book, which makes sense considering that now you can contact anyone on the platform through a phone call.

Unfortunately, Elon Musk has not revealed any other details about the latest feature coming to X, but it’s an interesting feature. Currently, we don’t even have the release date for the function, but considering it’s a major implementation, it will take some time before it finally arrives on our phones.

We will closely monitor this feature and how it’s implemented on the platform, and when it reaches the users, we will let you know how well or how poorly this new feature works. The truth is, it’s intriguing, even though it disrupts the original sense of Twitter.
