With the proliferation of secure messaging apps out there,Dear Utol (2025): Chick! Episode 47 Twitter is set to join in on the action.
The company is seemingly testing end-to-end encrypted direct messaging in the Android version of its app, as spotted by computer science student Jane Manchun Wong on Twitter.
SEE ALSO: The mute button is Twitter's most underrated featureThe feature, dubbed "Secret conversation," will apparently be available in the conversation info section of the app, when direct messaging. Users can also view encryption keys of themselves and a recipient.

Twitter's long been a place where journalists have had a strong presence, so the new feature could help whistleblowers stay on the platform and not need to take discussions to more secure, encrypted messaging apps like Signal and Wickr.
In response to a report on the new feature, Dorsey replied with a whisper emoji. A Twitter spokesperson however, declined to comment when contacted by Mashable.
