You can use this function on your Android, iOS, Windows, or Mac device. Musk has said that calls may be made without using a specific phone number.

“X to support video and audio calls soon; – Compatible with iOS, Android, Mac, and PC” Forget your phone number, since X is your ultimate worldwide contact directory.This particular combination of elements is one of a kind, he remarked on X.

However, Musk has not said when these functionalities would be available.

Company designer Andrew Conway first dropped hints about the addition in July. A month ago, Conway reportedly showed out screenshots of the function in action on Mashable.

The image shows that the DM screen was modified by adding audio and video call controls to the upper left.

However, Musk’s goal of making X the “everything app” is one step closer with the addition of voice and video calling. Musk, who has traditionally seen himself as a contender to Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of rival company Meta, has ambitions to expand X.

Musk lamented, “The sad truth is that there are no great “social networks” right now,” in a post on X earlier this month. Even if we don’t succeed, as many have predicted, we’ll do everything we can to ensure at least one.

On August 25th, X announced enhancements to the platform’s audio and video capabilities, such as better live broadcasting quality from mobile, an immersive video player on Android and iOS, and the ability to speak in and co-host a Space on the web, with support for millions of users in Spaces.
