This new development was first discovered by Jane Manchun Wong, she is famous for discovering features on social media applications that have not been released. She found the new change on Twitter when she observed a code under Twitter’s Android App. According to Wong, the snooze feature is being setas a bell icon on the top right corner of the notifications tab. When the user taps the bell button the app will open up a bottom sheet with Snooze duration options. When the user selects the preferred snooze duration, Twitter will stop sending push notifications for a specific time period. However, the notifications will still show in the Notification tab. The user can at all times tap the button to unsnooze or else increase or decrease the snooze duration as per their choice. While Wong is waiting for the social networking platform to comment on the new changes, the app code specifies that Twitter has started testing the new feature. Wong revealed in her blog post, “Seeing the blue circle of push notifications popping up our Twitter app often sparks joy. For example, when your tweet went viral, your phone might keep buzzing nonstop. Sometimes, there might be a desire to pause the stream of push notifications on Twitter. Now Twitter has a ‘Snooze’ button that lets you pause push notifications for a specific amount of time,” For the unknown, Twitter has also updated its web interface.
