Video calls will revolutionize how we connect and communicate on X, the social networking site known as Twitter.
A story says that X’s CEO, Linda Yaccarino, confirmed this exciting news in her first TV interview since taking over the job.
Yaccarino told CNBC’s Sara Eisen, “Soon, you’ll be able to make video chat calls without giving your phone number to anyone on the platform.”
This is a big step towards making the platform what she called an “everything app.” The news was a surprise to both the online community and tech fans as X continues to grow beyond its traditional roots in microblogging.

Yaccarino’s interview reveals X’s future
Yaccarino’s CNBC interview with Sara Eisen revealed X’s video call future. This new function allows users to meet face-to-face without sharing phone numbers, redefining social interactions.
Linda Yaccarino, the new CEO of X, has promised Elon Musk that she will bring new ideas and innovations to the business. It has already led to a chain reaction of changes, such as the addition of long-form videos and subscriptions for creators.
Also, Andrea Conray, a designer at X, sparked theories about the new video call features with a cryptic social media post.
Conway’s tweet, which said, “Just called someone on X” and was followed by head-exploding emojis, was well received on the internet. Even though the word could have been taken in different ways when it was first sent,
It’s not clear how this video call feature will work, if only Twitter Blue users will be able to use it, or if free users will have some restrictions. Even though no specific details have been given about this feature, it is now clear that video and phone call features are being worked on.
Twitter’s “Everything App” X
X’s growth into an “everything app” goes beyond just making video calls. There have been interesting hints about what X wants to do in the future, such as new ways to make payments and deal with money on the site.
Elon Musk’s commitment to giving social media users an all-in-one app that connects different parts of their digital lives is shown by how far Twitter has grown and changed into X.
The addition of Creator Payments is one of the best things about the new app. Content creators who have signed up for Twitter Blue can now start making money with this tool. Because of this special feature, every time someone looks at a creator’s profile, it could lead to money.
X is also thinking about adding a dating tool, a way to find new employees, and a way to post jobs on a job board. With X’s video calls, social networking is likely to change yet again by giving people a new way to meet, talk, and make long-lasting connections.
A chat between an X user and Andrea Conray on Twitter shows that they are excited for X to take the place of Microsoft Teams, even though there is no talk about that right now.
But in the next few months, social networking is going to change in an exciting way, and X seems to be at the head of this change.
