According to the firm, the group function lets users start conversations with any of their followers and they don’t all need to follow one another in order to chat.
The firm has also made it easy for users and brands to share videos by launching a Twitter app that allows them to take and edit videos minus leaving Twitter.
“Our unique mobile video camera and inline editing experience lets you capture and share videos up to 30 seconds in an instant,” the firm announced adding that users will soon be able to upload videos from the camera roll.
