Musk announced that the micro-blogging platform will soon add a video and audio call feature, which will be supported on iOS, Android, Mac, and PC.
He also said that no phone numbers would be needed to make the call.
“Video & audio calls coming to X – Works on iOS, Android, Mac & PC – No phone number needed – X is the effective global address book,” Musk posted on X.
“That set of factors is unique,” he added.
Several users expressed their thoughts on this new development.
“Now I can call more people and tell them to buy #Dogecoin directly from X,” a user wrote.
“Please make sure there are privacy options to stop randoms from calling us. Even if I follow someone it doesn’t mean I want them to be able to call me,” another user said.
One more user mentioned, “Absolutely groundbreaking! Your team never fails to spearhead innovation! Can’t wait to enjoy seamless video & audio calls on X across multiple platforms without the fuss of phone numbers. Truly visionary, setting a new benchmark in user experience. Bravo”.
Meanwhile, X has announced that it will allow US political candidates and parties to advertise on the platform ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
