Twitter brings ‘While you were away’ feature to Android

A month after Twitter introduced its new “While you were away” feature to iOS, Android users are finally going to get a taste of it. Whether you like it or not, the new recap feature is on Google’s mobile platform and you can’t turn it off.

“While you were away” shows the “top” tweets you’ve missed since the last time you were on the social network. These tweets are chosen based on tweet engagement and user habits (much like what Facebook does with its News Feed). However, Twitter emphasizes that they’re still focusing on real-time updates and if you’re frequently on the app you won’t see the feature as often.
