See it? Click it and Tweet it

The micro- blogging site is set for a redesign of its camera.

In its attempt to increase visual focus, Twitter, known for its 140-character format blogs, is headed for a redesign of its camera, which will soon let the Twitterati capture media and overlay location, hashtag or some words on a coloured label. The app would now show the micro-blogging site in a larger, more immersive format in the feed with the imagery appearing before the text in tweets, according to TechCrunch.

The redesign offers an insight into the company's plan to offer more visual content clicked on real-time lens. The tweet announcing the move read, “See it? Tweet it! Our updated camera is just a swipe away, so you get the shot fast. Rolling out to all of you over the next few days.” Keith Coleman, Twitter's vice-president of product, too confirmed the news in another tweet, “We’re rolling out improvements to the Twitter camera, designed to make it easier to capture what you see happening, and get it to the people who want to see and talk about it.”

As of now, no stickers, filters, light enhancements or other creative tools have been added on the Twitter Camera app. Twitter has also not specified by when the new feature would reach its global users.
