On Tuesday, Twitter announced via a tweet that Twitter Circle (a characteristic that permits you to tweet to only a chosen few), was lastly out there for all customers on Android, iOS, and the net. However then, many people shortly opened up our apps and checked on-line to strive it out solely to be met with a shiny new characteristic that apparently isn’t working correctly proper now.

Lots of users took to Twitter to tweet their frustration that whereas they may see the Twitter Circle characteristic, they nonetheless couldn’t truly add any of their associates to their Circles as a result of the Add button doesn’t appear to reply whenever you press it. And having the ability to add just a few of your trusted followers so you possibly can tweet solely to them is sort of the entire level.
A number of of us at DailyTech tried to make use of Twitter Circle and in addition had bother getting it to work. One in all us observed that the Add button doesn’t appear to work for them on the cell app for Android and that the Circle characteristic doesn’t seem for them in any respect on the desktop net model of Twitter. And one among our editors stated that presently, they weren’t capable of edit folks or ship tweets to their Circle.
Ideally, in case you’re accessing Twitter Circle by way of the desktop web site, you have to be ready to take action by way of the Tweet composer within the Select Viewers drop-down menu or by way of the menu that’s accessible within the left-hand sidebar’s Extra possibility. However for me, neither of these strategies labored. The Select Viewers drop-down menu didn’t provide a Twitter Circle possibility and after I chosen the Twitter Circle possibility throughout the Extra menu, Twitter Circle wouldn’t load.
Additionally, based on a GIF picture shared by Twitter to DailyTech, after choosing the Add button on the cell app, the button ought to change from “Add” to “Take away,” indicating that the individual you added has truly been added. After I chosen the Add button on the Android app, nothing occurred. The Add button didn’t reply in any means nor did it change itself to indicate “Take away.”
DailyTech did attain out to Twitter for touch upon the Twitter Circle characteristic points and we obtained affirmation that Twitter is conscious of the problem and that it’s “trying into it and dealing on a repair.”
