Musk announced the audio and video calling feature

The Twitter mogul has been using the microblogging site to share his views since buying Twitter last October for about $44 billion. Elon Musk has announced that X (formerly Twitter) will soon introduce audio and video calling. He also indicated that the new feature will be compatible with Android, iOS, PC and Mac.

Musk said that when the feature is launched and updated, it will be possible to make audio and video calls without a phone number. Speaking of X, Musk wrote: “Video and audio calls are coming to X; it works on iOS, Android, Mac and PC; no phone number required; X is an effective global address book. This set of factors is unique,”

Twitter Corporation ceased to exist as a separate company due to its merger with X Corp. in April of this year. In late July, Twitter changed its logo from a blue bird to a black and white X logo. When introducing the new logo, Musk clarified that the new logo symbolizes “all of our imperfections that make us unique.”
