To record a Space, users will have to toggle the Record Space option, when setting up a new session. Twitter said that the recordings will be available for public playback, for a period of 30 days after the recording.

Besides this, Twitter is testing a TikTok-like "Quote Tweet with reaction" feature that lets users tap the retweet button to include videos and images, along with the tweet, similar to how TikTok's video replies work.

Tweet reaction videos can now start on Twitter!

Testing on iOS: when you tap the Retweet icon, choose “Quote Tweet with reaction” to create and customize your very own Tweet Take –– a reaction video (or photo) with the Tweet embedded. pic.twitter.com/1E30F8rKYh — Twitter Support (@TwitterSupport) January 6, 2022

It's also testing a revamped composer bar, that will house all important buttons and icons, at the bottom of the interface. The goal is to provide faster access to commonly used features.

Both reactions and interface changes are currently in testing with a limited number of users on iOS, availability on Android will be confirmed at a later date.
