Twitter Inc’s New Feature Update That Will Let You Snooze Push Notifications For 12 Hours

According to Wong, the current  ‘Snooze’ feature is shown as a “bell” button on top of the Twitter app’s Notifications tab. By tapping the button, the app will provide a bottom sheet of various length of Snooze durations. During the snooze, you will not receive push notifications from Twitter. The notifications will still appear in your Notifications tab, as indicated. You could always tap the  button to unsnooze or adjust the duration.

Take note that you’ll still see new replies and tweets in the notifications tab, where they’ll continue to accumulate until you’re ready to look at them — or to swipe them away from view, unseen and unread. While experimental features are, well, experiments that may never be released widely, the snooze button could be Twitter’s answer to other social networks’ and tech giants’ offerings meant to prevent social media burnout. Last year, Facebook rolled out time management tools in hopes users would monitor their own usage without quitting the platform entirely. Google also released Digital Wellbeing tools that let users set time limits on app usage.
