The new Twitter social network has opened a new "hide tweet" feature in front of the site´s application developers sector, allowing the development of additional tools that help users to hide responses to their tweets faster and more effectively .
Twitter launched this feature last November for users all over the world, aiming to reduce the ability of intruders to spoil conversations between users via Twitter, as it allows the user to control the way in which the responses he sends appear in response to his tweet.
The new feature allows you to click on the "Share" button on Twitter and choose "Hide Tweet" to close responses. In this case other users should click to see the replies to the tweet, instead of seeing it automatically.
According to TechCrunch, a website that specializes in technology issues, this type of tool is expected to be developed after opening the “hide Tweet” feature to developers. It will be especially important for companies and brands that have official accounts on Twitter.
These companies suffer from a large number of responses to tweets sent by companies, beyond their ability to handle responses appropriately.
But with the “Hide Tweet” feature unlocked, developers can develop tools that can automatically hide annoying or unwanted responses based on factors of importance to customers of this company, such as tweets containing prohibited keywords or those that contain very dangerous content, for example.
TechCrunch added that Twitter has collaborated with a small number of developers who have already developed tools to further take advantage of the feature.
