Twitter is also bringing a much sought-after feature that will help users find specific tweets and profiles by filtering based on date, user, retweet count, hashtags and more.
Late last month, Musk announced that new navigation features will arrive on Twitter in the New Year, as he aims to rejig the whole experience to make the platform faster.
"Twitter navigation coming in January that allows swiping to the side to switch between recommended & followed tweets, trends, topics, etc," he had said in a tweet.
"Until then, tap the star icon on the upper right of the home screen to switch," he added.
Musk said that it is good to switch back and forth.
"As we improve Twitter AI, recommended tweets, lists and topics will become awesome," he noted.
