The audio- chat app Clubhouse allowed recording and replays of its audio sessions in September.

The hosts of a Space can record sessions by selecting the 'Record Space' option before starting a broadcast. Once the session ends, Twitter will show the host the number of attendees and give them an option to share the recording with a tweet.

Recordings can be deleted by selecting the recording and tapping on more. Twitter says it will retain copies of the recording for 30 to 120 days.

Twitter has also been experimenting with a TikTok style Explore tab, testing it with limited users in multiple markets, including India.

It allows users to swipe up and down on a vertical pane to see videos, text and images.
