The While You Were Away feature on Twitter is similar to the Timeline used by Facebook (FB). It collects Tweets from while users aren’t online and puts them at the top of their feed for viewing. The feature selects Tweets based on interaction with other users, reports Business Insider.

While You Were Away is currently only available to some Twitter users on Apple’s (AAPL) iOS. Reaction to the new feature has been mixed. Some users are pleased with it while others don’t like the change, Business Insider notes.

Here’s what a few Twitter users have had to say about the While You Were Away feature.

  • “Really hope @twitter don’t plan to replace the main Twitter feed with the new #WhileYouWereAway option.”
  • “This sounds awesome! Always wished for something like this! @twitter #whileyouwereaway.”
  • “Yes @twitter launches new feature ‘#whileyouwereaway’ to recap missed tweets!!”
