Elon Musk has announced that X (formerly Twitter) users will soon be able to make audio and video calls on the platform without requiring a phone number.
In a post shared via the platform on Thursday, he specified that the feature will be compatible with Android, iOS, PC, and Mac.
“Video and audio calls are coming to X; it works on iOS, Android, Mac, and PC; no phone number needed; X is the effective global address book. That set of factors is unique,” Musk said
He, however, did not give a specific date for the launch of the new feature.
Musk has introduced several features and changes since he took over the social media platform, X.
In 2022, the firm came up with a subscription package for the verified blue tick mark.
In April 2023, Musk introduced a feature that allows media publishers to charge users on per article basis.
This followed the announcement that Twitter users will be able to monetise their content, including long-form text and hours-long videos.
Providing updates later in May, the Twitter CEO said the platform would take a 10 percent cut on content subscriptions after the first year.
Earlier this month, X CEO Linda Yaccarino confirmed that the platform is working to bring the feature during an interview.
