Musk claimed that the feature would be unique as the audio and video calls would work on iOS, Android, Mac, and PC and that no phone number would be needed. He also added that X is the “effective global address book.” In response to an account which asked if the calls would be encrypted, Musk said this would not be the case at first but there would later be a choice to turn encryption on and off “dynamically.” “There is necessarily a slight lag for encryption. However, X on Friday announced that iOS and Android users could swipe messages to reply when using the direct message feature.
