Like so many other apps, Twitter has grown and developed dramatically over the years and to help give users control over things there are a huge number of settings that can be configured. Manually trawling through the "Settings and privacy" section of the app to find a particular setting can be a frustrating experience, but now there is a new option.
Much like Microsoft has done with Windows 11, as Apple has done with macOS, Google has done with Chrome and other developers have done with their own software, Twitter has finally decided to implement a search option for settings.
The real surprise here is that it has taken quite so long for such a simple and obvious idea to come to the app, but the day has – at long last – arrived. The change addresses a problem faced by many people: knowing that they want to change a setting, but not knowing which section to look in to find it.
Seek and ye shall find
With this latest update, when you pay a visit to the "Privacy and settings" section of the Twitter app, you will see a search bar at the top of the screen. Type a keyword in to this "Search settings" bar, and you'll be presented with a list of matching settings that you can jump to with a quick tap.
Twitter shared news of the new search capability in a tweet from the Twitter Safety account:
So you wanna change a particular setting but don’t feel like digging for where to do it? Now you can just start typing in the new search bar in Settings to find it.February 23, 2022
Reception to the tweet has been positive, and this is hardly surprising given just how much it can help speed up the process of customizing, personalizing and securing a Twitter account.
The new search functionality is gradually rolling out to all versions of the Twitter app, so check for updates but be prepared to wait a little while if you don't see the option just yet.
