An engineer named Alessandro Paluzzi was able to enable the feature on the Twitter for Android app. A screenshot he shared showed how Twitter Flock works.

1. Add people to your flock – You can choose up to 150 people to include in your Twitter Flock.
2. Share content privately – Only people in your Twitter Flock can view and reply to your tweets.
3. Update your list anytime – People’s won’t be notified if you remove them from your Twitter Flock.

Will you use Twitter Flock when it goes live?
