Micro-blogging site Twitter is testing a new feature to let people send a Direct Message (DM) straight from a tweet.
Twitter feels the feature will make it easier to start a conversation from your timeline, Business Insiders reported.
“For when you want to reply directly to a Tweet’s author, we’re making it easier to DM them from your timeline to start a conversation,” said the micro-blogging platform.
“Now testing a DM icon on Tweets with some of you on iOS,” it added. According to Twitter, the experiment is not changing the current settings of anyone’s DMs.
“We’re always exploring ways to make DMs more accessible and valuable for people on Twitter, and they will always remain in control: anyone can close their DMs in their settings,” a Twitter spokesperson said.
