In a press statement, a Twitter spokesperson said about Fleets, “We learned from research that people don’t Tweet because Tweets are public, feel permanent, and display the number of Retweets and Likes. India is the third market where Twitter is rolling out Fleets, after Brazil and Italy. However, Twitter has confirmed that all of its India users are going to get access to Fleets, which is encouraging.

Once the update is rolled out, users eligible for testing of Fleets will see an interface similar to the image attached above. The only sure way of checking this is by keeping an eye out for an update to the Twitter app on either of the two mobile platforms. Moreover, it is a test rollout, so it is likely that some of us may face some delay in getting Fleets. The feature is initially being rolled out only to Twitter’s Android and iOS apps.

Any replies made to Fleets on Twitter will directly appear as replies in Twitter’s direct messages tab, which suggests that Twitter’s DMs may just become a more active place in the near future. Users will be able to see the posts, but not get to like, retweet or post public responses to them. As seen with such disappearing format posts on other platforms, Twitter Fleets will also only be available for the set time period, beyond which the posts will disappear from the platform. The feature finally brings Twitter at par with the likes of Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and WhatsApp, wherein users will get to post temporary updates on their Twitter profiles, which will last only for 24 hours. Twitter has announced the rollout of a new feature, Twitter Fleets, for its mobile users in India.
