Twitter announced a test today. This test allows multiple people to host a Space together. Spaces are Twitter’s live audio chat rooms. The new feature is called Co-Hosting. It lets several users share control of a live audio discussion.

Co-hosting means multiple people can manage a Space. They can invite speakers. They can remove participants. They can control the conversation together. This makes hosting easier. It also lets different hosts bring their audiences together. This can create larger, more diverse conversations.
Twitter sees this as a way to improve Spaces. The goal is to make Spaces more dynamic. The goal is also to make Spaces more engaging. Group hosting could lead to better discussions. It could also encourage more creative programming. Podcasts, interviews, and panel talks could benefit.
“We want Spaces to feel natural,” said a Twitter spokesperson. “Real conversations often involve many people. Co-hosting reflects that. It gives hosts more flexibility. It gives hosts more support.”
The test is starting small. It is available only to a limited group of users. Twitter will gather feedback. The company will then decide on a wider release. Twitter wants to see how people use Co-Hosting. Twitter also wants to ensure it works reliably.
This move follows Twitter’s focus on audio. Spaces launched in late 2020. It lets users talk live to followers. Twitter believes audio is key for public conversation. Co-Hosting adds a new dimension. It taps into the power of collaboration.
Existing Spaces hosts can apply for the test. Twitter will notify selected users. The feature is appearing on both iOS and Android. Twitter encourages testers to share their experiences. User feedback will shape the final product.

Twitter continues building tools for creators. The platform aims to empower different voices. Co-Hosting in Spaces is part of this mission. Twitter wants everyone to find their community. Twitter also wants everyone to join the global conversation.
