Twitter says new designs ‘make it easier to express yourself’

Twitter is rolling out new designs for its profile pages that it says makes it ‘even easier to express yourself’.

The new designs let users use a larger profile photo, customise the page header and highlight their favourite Tweets.

In the new profile design, Tweets that have received more engagement will appear slightly larger, so that more popular Tweets are easier to find.

Users can pin their favourite Tweets to the top of the page. There are also new timeline options to choose – users can now choose to look at Tweets, Tweets with photos/videos or Tweets and replies.

Twitter says it is launching the new designs to a small group of users as well as people who are new to Twitter. It will roll out the new designs to all users in the coming weeks.
