Does Twitter even know how to use Twitter anymore?
In a controversial move, Twitter has brought back a feature that removes the 'Latest Tweets' view for users on iOS, which is something that many users, including me, hated back inThe first time the company decided to do this, 'Home' would appear first in a tab at the top, and there was no way of changing it so that 'Latest Tweets' would be the default view. It was reverted back after the company said it was a 'bug' for iOS users.
This time though, it's no bug. Instead, it's 'For You' and 'Following' where you can only swipe between them now, which doesn't make much sense for a platform where you're using the platform to keep up to date with who you follow. It's a bizarre change that makes me ask – who wants this, especially during a time when its new owner, Elon Musk, isSee the Tweets you want to see. Starting today on iOS, swipe between tabs to see Tweets recommended “For you” or Tweets from the accounts you’re “Following.”You look on Twitter to read the latest tweets from your followers – that's the first thing that most users do when they load up Twitter on an iPhone or Android device.
With this new switch rolling out with no sign that it was accidental, it sets a risky precedent for the platform that the ones in charge simply don't know how its users interact with Twitter. It makes finding content harder to discover with these new tabs, and above all, it looks bad from a design perspective.
In what feels like I'm in a sequel to Groundhog Day involving Twitter, let's hope we see this feature reversed, then binned, and never seen again.Sign up to get breaking news, reviews, opinion, analysis and more, plus the hottest tech deals!Receive email from us on behalf of our trusted partners or sponsors
