Twitter user Devesh Logendran shared screenshots of a built-in tweetstorming feature, that appears to automatically split text up.
What do you do when 140 characters just aren’ t enough to express your ideas on Twitter? Launch into a full-on tweetstorm, of course. While it’s fairly easy to do already, the company is looking to make it even easier with a new feature it’s testing in its Android app. Android
For those out of the loop, a tweetstorm is simply a thread of tweets that follow the same topic or conversation. You can whip up your own simply by tweeting and then replying to that tweet to get started; then, you’ ll need to reply to each tweet in succession to keep the thread going. Repeat as many times as necessary.
Now, a Twitter user who goes by the alias Devesh Logendran shared screenshots of a built-in tweetstorming feature with TNW, that appears to automatically split text up into individual tweets and appending a tweet count at the end.
WOAH! Twitter has a hidden tweet storm feature!

Twitter refused to comment on the feature, but hopefully it’ ll arrive on the service’s mobile apps sooner than later. Until then, you can use Storm It on Android and iOS to create, preview and publish tweetstorms like a veteran. Twitter refused to comment Storm It iOS Android Apps Twitter
