How to Use Twitter Spaces
Hey everyone. In today's video, I want to show you Twitter spaces, a brand new update from Twitter that I think a lot of people are going to enjoy. It's a live audio conversation on Twitter, on the Twitter app on iPhone and iOS. So imagine a virtual room where you could create your own space and then have an audio chat and it's very much like a different app called clubhouse and if you haven't used clubhouse before. I'll put a link to that video as well, but that's also a virtual room where you could have audio conversations right on your app. Let's jump on Twitter here. I'm going to show you how to create your own space and then I will show you also how to join one. So two different places to create your own space. One is right up here. Do you see that icon? That's my profile icon and that's called Twitter fleets. If I click on that right here, right on the bottom, I have options like video and capture, but right. All the way to the end is called space.
Now, if you don't see that, that means you don't have this option just yet. I only have it on one of my Twitter profiles. So it's going to take a little bit to get to everybody and to create in space. All you have to do is name your space here, and then press starts your space. This is one way to do it. The second option.
Let me exit here. This is how you compose a tweet. So the tweet icon right on the bottom, if you press and hold it, you could actually create your tweet from here. But right now there's a new option for spaces. Let me click on it and it basically lets you do the same thing. Name your space, and this starts your space.
This one lets you schedule it for later too. So that's good if you want to create something that is not right now, but I want to create a Lifespace here. So I'll just name this test right now. So no one hopefully joins so I could show you around and I'll press start your space and it's going to take a second here and just like that, my space is live.
Now, anybody could join me. These are public spaces. Now let me show you a little bit in here of what you could see. If I just press the three dots and press about spaces, you could add up to 10 different speakers. Okay, so you could invite anybody on Twitter to speak. Anybody on Twitter can join, except that counts you have blocked, and your space again is moderated by the speaker or the host here. You could also adjust your settings. So there's a bunch of different options here who can speak. Typically, you want to bring speakers up to this space to speak. You have to give permissions basically. So right now I could only speak or the people I invite you can't change that to people you follow, or anyone here and you have auto-generated captions here. You could turn on and sound effects here. You could turn it on, I just minimize spaces just to show you when there's this space happening on top of your fleet here, you'll see it on your app. So to join the space, you could actually tap on someone's space right here and jump into their space as well and start a conversation. I'll do it from a different phone in a second. You could also invite people. That's the icon next to the first one here and you could see everybody that is a speaker. Is going to show up here so I could add speakers here and then it's going to let me search people here and add them, or invite them from Twitter.
You could also see listeners here and you could see everybody as well and people you've remote. So speakers are people that have permission to speak. Listeners are people. That can't speak, but they could listen in on your conversation. There are only 10 spots dove four speakers. Then the next icon is you could actually leave emojis here, just like this and the share icon is the last icon where you could invite people on direct messages on Twitter or share this via a tweet or just copy the link, and right now my microphone is off. So no one could hear me, but when I'm ready, I could turn it on. Yeah. Now, whatever I say is being broadcast to whoever's joining me, let me actually join with a different phone to show you what other people will see when they join a space.
So I'm just tapping on a different phone to join the space and I'll just appear here with my other account. There it is. This is me again on a different phone, but basically, you get the idea. Now, there are two people here. One is me, the host, and the other one is my other account. As a listener. Now, I'm going to press request on my other accounts and you could see that as a host, I have to let that person become a speaker.
I could see their request. I'm going to tap on request here, and then I proved them. Let me press that proof here and now they could speak. So you could see I'm the host and the other person got the new label called the speaker. Now, they're also on mute. So they'll have to get themselves off mute here and they could also do the exact same things and I'm using an Android for the other person, just to show you the experience is identical on Android and iOS. So now if you look on top of the fleet section, you could see what that looks like. Now, when the space has multiple different speakers on it, it will change the graphic and anybody else could join here as a listener and then request to become a speaker.
Now, let me leave on the second accounts, and just like that, I disappeared. So the host is left and any time I could end this, now these are not being recorded. These are live audio conversations. If I end it and press and here it will just end it like that and if I go to the homepage and refresh, that will disappear from the top of the page.
So just to recap, Twitter spaces right now are available to a lot of people, but not everyone on iOS and Android. So iPhone and Android phones we'll have that on the Twitter mobile app. Anybody could create a room that has this available and then invite other people to join that room. They could become listeners and just listen to someone's conversation, a solo conversation, or a group conversation, or they could request to become speakers and speak with the host or with up to 10 different people as speakers in any room and anybody could listen in, and these are not recorded conversations. They're live audio conversations, right on Twitter. It could be a really, really big update and a big competitor to the clubhouse. So I hope you found this video useful. Please give it a thumbs up.
