However, Twitter has yet to make it clear what it means when a user deems a post inappropriate. While the Close Friends feature is similar to Instagram&#8217;s Close Friends, it is still an experiment that needs further testing. Users can curate a list of 150 people that can see their tweets. They can then choose to retweet or unfollow others in the Circle.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Circle_is_modeled_after_Instagrams_Close_Friends_feature\"><\/span>Circle is modeled after Instagram&#8217;s Close Friends feature<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Twitter&#8217;s new Circle feature is a bit like Instagram&#8217;s Close Friends feature, but with more flexibility and less restriction on who you share your life with. Users can create lists of up to 150 people and invite them to their list. They can change their lists at any time, but removing someone from their list will leave them out. Users are encouraged to create a personal list to keep in touch with the people they care about.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from being more convenient than the original Close Friends feature, another reason to switch to Circle is the privacy aspect. While it&#8217;s possible to add friends and followers who have the same username or email address, you can&#8217;t remove them from your list. You won&#8217;t be notified when someone adds or removes you from their list. But it&#8217;s a simple way to communicate with a select group of followers, hide private photos and Stories, and share the app&#8217;s &#8220;Stories&#8221; feature.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Users_can_curate_a_list_of_150_people_to_view_tweets\"><\/span>Users can curate a list of 150 people to view tweets<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Users can curate a list of 150 other people to view their tweets. Similar to Instagram&#8217;s &#8220;Close Friends&#8221; feature, this feature lets users select a group of 150 other people to view their tweets. While this feature isn&#8217;t available to everyone, users will still be able to curate this list and share content with the people who matter to them. It also allows users to choose which tweets they want to send to these people, and they can also customize the list as they see fit.<\/p>\n<p>After adding users to the list, users can edit it or delete it. Users can change their list&#8217;s name, description, and banner photo. They can also add new members or delete existing ones. Users can also edit and delete the list. After making changes to the list, users can edit the list name, description, banner image, and select &#8220;Done.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Users_can_retweet_tweets_from_Circle\"><\/span>Users can retweet tweets from Circle<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you want to share a tweet with a select audience, you can select a Twitter Circle. This is a list of up to 150 people that you follow. Tweets shared in Circles are only visible to those people. You can also choose to see tweets from Circle members only. You can&#8217;t retweet a tweet that you didn&#8217;t post to your Circle.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to share your private information, you can choose to add people to your Twitter Circle. It&#8217;s a private group, but only the people you choose will see it. If you add a person to your Circle, they won&#8217;t know about it, so you can&#8217;t retweet their tweets. This is a nice feature that allows you to interact with your circle&#8217;s tweets without having to open up your feed.<\/p>\n<p>Another great benefit of Twitter Circle is the ability to target specific audiences. You can retweet tweets that are relevant to a particular topic, rather than posting generic ones to your entire audience. You can also send specific tweets based on a topic you&#8217;re interested in, which is great if you&#8217;re trying to reach multiple audiences. Although Twitter Circle is available for only one account, it&#8217;s expected to expand soon.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Users_can_remove_people_from_Circle\"><\/span>Users can remove people from Circle<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The new Twitter feature that allows users to create a group of 150 followers known as a Circle has a few differences from its Instagram counterpart. First, it won&#8217;t notify you when someone is added to your Circle. Second, if you delete someone from your Circle, only the author of that tweet will know that person is gone. Finally, you can edit your list anytime and remove any person you&#8217;d like to remove from it.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to restrict who sees your tweets, the Circle feature is a good option for you. It will limit the number of people who can see your tweets by showing them to people in your Circle. It&#8217;s similar to Facebook groups, but it allows you to choose a smaller crowd. Unlike Facebook groups, you won&#8217;t get any notifications when someone else replies to your tweet. However, you can still reply to their tweets if they&#8217;re not in your Circle.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jlGo9hICtoE\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"302\" width=\"541\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Do Twitter Circles The Close Friends feature of Twitter has been around for three years.
