Twitter users have long been asking for an Edit button to avoid things they post on Twitter erroneously.

Twitter had recently announced is bringing a new feature for its user, allowing them to record and post a 140-second long audio tweet.

Twitter has said that the feature is now available for a limited group of people on Twitter for iOS, however in the coming weeks everyone on iOS will be able to Tweet with their voice, will be able to see/hear them and reply. 

“Have more to say? Keep talking. Once you reach the time limit for a (textual) Tweet, a new voice Tweet starts automatically to create a thread. Once you’re done, tap the Done button to end your recording and go back to the composer screen to Tweet,” Twitter had said.

Audio can only be added to original tweets and the users can’t include those in replies or retweets with a comment.
