Twitter on Monday announced that the ability to tag locations in tweets with Foursquare is "coming soon."
The micro-blogging website previewed the feature in a video along with a tweet that reads, "Coming soon! We're working with @foursquare so you can tag specific locations in Tweets."
Twitter's support page for "Adding your location to a Tweet" notes that users will be able to add a location to their tweets on the Web, as well as on Android, iOS, and all other Twitter mobile applications. Additionally, Android or iOS apps will be able to include precise location (e.g., the coordinates of the street intersection where you tweeted) in addition to the location label that the user selects.
"For example: To give additional location context to your Tweet, you can add a general location label such as 'SoMa, San Francisco.' In select locations, on Twitter for iOS and Twitter for Android, you may also label your Tweet with the name of a specific business, landmark, or other point of interest. These locations are provided byFoursquare."
Meanwhile, Twitter is testing auto-playing videos and a 'Quality filter' for its app platforms. The auto-playing video test is said to be effective on promoted video ads, videos uploaded through Twitter's mobile app, and clips that are part of Twitter's Amplify program. On the other hand, the 'quality filter' feature is to help verified users remove unwanted content from their timeline.
