Today, Elon Musk announced that X will feature an audio and video calling function, something that will polarize many people, but I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing how it works once it&#8217;s finally available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Video &amp; audio calls coming to X:<br><br>&#8211; Works on iOS, Android, Mac &amp; PC<br>&#8211; No phone number needed<br>&#8211; X is the effective global address book <br><br>That set of factors is unique.<\/p>&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk\/status\/1697145283472244974?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 31, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It&#8217;s available on all platforms and doesn&#8217;t require a phone number<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Musk announced on his X account that <strong>the possibility of making video calls or audio calls will work on iOS, Android, Mac, and PC<\/strong>. So, you have all the major platforms covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Another advantage is that you won&#8217;t need a phone number to initiate the call. <\/strong>This suggests that the function will likely work solely based on the person&#8217;s username.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another thing Musk has pointed out is that this feature will turn X into an effective global address book, which makes sense considering that now you can contact anyone on the platform through a phone call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video

not revealed any other details about the latest feature coming to X, but it&#8217;s an interesting feature.<\/strong> Currently, we don&#8217;t even have the release date for the function, but considering it&#8217;s a major implementation, it will take some time before it finally arrives on our phones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will closely monitor this feature and how it&#8217;s implemented on the platform, and when it reaches the users, we will let you know how well or how poorly this new feature works. <strong>The truth is, it&#8217;s intriguing, even though it disrupts the original sense of Twitter.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n
