Twitter started testing circle earlier this month with a limited group. Now it’s starting to roll out to more users (via Android Police).
When you start writing a tweet, you’ll see a dropdown menu at the top that reads everyone. From here, you can choose Twitter circle to limit your tweet to a select audience. You can hit edit to add or remove people from your circle.
You can add up to 150 users to your circle, whether they follow you or not. Users in your circle will see a note appended to circle-only tweets.
Twitter’s community guidelines still apply even if you’re sending your tweets out to a smaller audience. The people in your circle wo n’t be able to retweet anything you post to it, but they can still screenshot and download your tweets.
Twitter spokesperson Joseph Nunez told the verge it’s still in testing.’we are still testing Twitter circle with a group of people across iOS, Android and web globally,’ he said.
It’s unclear how many people currently have access to circle. But some users still report not having access quite yet. Some users are still reporting not yet having access.
