Is Twitter's standalone app for 'direct messages' in the offing?
While there is no word from Twitter yet, its entry into the world of messaging apps seems likely as the messaging apps market is heating up.

New Delhi: If reports are to be believed, Twitter is mulling over bringing a dedicated, standalone mobile app for its Direct Messaging (DM) service. While there is no word from Twitter yet, its entry into the world of messaging apps seems likely as the messaging apps market is heating up.

Many believe that by introducing a messaging app, Twitter may bring its barely DM feature to the forefront. Experts, on the other hand, question its success. "Many critics have questioned whether diversifying the product focus could distract Twitter from its core service," reports The Next Web.

It looks like Twitter is striving to make its long-buried DM service popular. Recently, the company made some change to its DM feature and introduced a new setting that allows a Twitter user to receive Direct Messages from any follower, irrespective of whether a user follows the sender or not. Twitter is gradually rolling out the new feature.

What's your reaction?
