Twitter will now let users check out Fleets while they scroll Tweets on the timeline.
Fleets are the platform’s ephemeral tweets that are meant to disappear from a profile after 24 hours. Fleets are similar to Stories on Instagram or Snapchat.
The feature is rolling out to users on iOS. It will soon be rolled out to Android.
Users can check out a Fleet by clicking on a blue circle around a person’s avatar. Previously, users could check out Fleets from a separate section that appeared on the top of their timeline.
