Late in October, Twitter announced that Spaces hosts can now record Spaces they create and share them with their audience so users who missed out on live conversations can catch up later. Around that time, this ability was only available to “some hosts” on iOS. The company has now provided an update that users with an Android device can also record their Spaces. The feature is still limited to select hosts but it’s nice to see Twitter gradually expanding its availability.Additionally, when Twitter first rolled out this feature, users on iOS or Android mobile apps could only listen to a recorded Space. The company is now also expanding that support to the web version of Twitter. So anyone can now listen to recordings of Spaces regardless of what platform they use Twitter on.Note that you cannot yet start a Space on the web. And since only hosts can record a live Space, you must use Twitter on iOS or Android mobile apps to be able to record your Space.  » Read More
