Twitter Now Allows You to Search Specific Direct Messages and We Are Happy

Twitter has added yet another useful functionality for users and it is regarding DMs. As what can be referred to as a big thing, Twitter’s DM section has an improved search bar for users to easily look for specific chats and messages. This is a welcome change, considering everyone needs a search option instead of hovering over the entire chat view to find the one chat that happened years ago.
