Nikita Bier, X\u2019s head of product, has announced the launch of custom timelines, which lets you curate what you see on your feed based on your topics of interest. He called the update \u201cone of the biggest changes to X\u201d and a \u201dhuge undertaking\u201d that took the team \u201cmany months\u201d to develop. The feature lets you pin specific topics to your home tab, so you can switch from one to the other to see the latest discussions about your interests and hobbies.<\/p>\n
Bier said that X\u2019s custom timelines is \u201cpowered by Grok’s understanding of every post with the algorithm’s personalization.\u201d You have 75 topics to choose from, including food, art, photography, business, finance, movies and TV. As you\u2019d expect, the personalization aspect of the feature works better if it\u2019s a topic you already engage with regularly. X\u2019s new feature is similar to Bluesky\u2019s and Threads\u2019 custom feeds, which also allow you to pin topic-based timelines to the home screens of the apps, and which their users have been enjoying since 2023 and 2024, respectively.<\/p>\n
At the moment, X\u2019s custom timelines is still in its early access phase and is only available to Premium subscribers on iOS. It will be rolling out to Premium users on Android \u201cvery soon,\u201d as well. Bier has also announced that X has released a tool to snooze topics on the For You tab. With the tool, you\u2019ll be able to hide certain topics, such as politics or sports, for 24 hours from your feed. It\u2019s now available for Premium users on iOS and the web.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
