New Delhi: As expected, Twitter has started rolling out its mute button feature to all users. Twitter had been testing this feature with select users.
The new Twitter mute button lets you mute posts from users you follow without actually unfollowing them. Twitter says this new feature will be rolled out to all accounts in the coming weeks.
The feature will be available on Twitter's iPhone and Android apps and on its website.
"Muting a user on Twitter means their Tweets and Retweets will no longer be visible in your home timeline, and you will no longer receive push or SMS notifications from that user. The muted user will still be able to fave, reply to, and retweet your Tweets; you just won't see any of that activity in your timeline. The muted user will not know that you've muted them, and of course you can unmute at any time," Paul Rosania, product manager at Twitter said in a blog post.
To mute a user from a Tweet on your iOS or Android device or on Twitter for web tap more and then mute @username. To mute someone from their profile page, tap the gear icon on the page and choose mute @username.
