one feature you’ve been asking for is Spaces Recording and the ability to replay. Some hosts on iOS will now be able to record their Spaces and share it out to their audience. pic.twitter.com/Puz78oCm4t — Spaces (@TwitterSpaces) October 28, 2021 According to Twitter, hosts will see a Record Space toggle when creating a new Space. They will have to turn ON this toggle to record their Spaces. It appears you cannot start recording a live Space mid-way through it. You’ll have to decide whether you want to record before starting the Space. However, a Twitter Spaces support page (via) notes that you can choose where to start your recording with an Edit start time option. This will help you cut out “any dead air time” at the beginning. When a live Space is being recorded, participants will be notified with a recording icon. It will be visible to everyone, including the host, co-hosts, speakers, and listeners. But listeners will not be visible in the recordings. After a recorded Space has ended, hosts will get a link to share out the recording via a tweet. Any tweet that you may have posted to promote the space before the live broadcasting will also include a link to the recording after the broadcast has ended. Twitter says hosts will have access to the recordings for 30 days after the initial broadcast. They will be able to share the recording for greater reach within that period. Listeners can also share a recorded Space. Meanwhile, if you don’t want to keep a recorded Space, you can delete it right away. Twitter may still keep a copy of the recording for up to 120 days for review purposes though.

The ability to record live Spaces and share them on Twitter is the latest of a string of new features the company has added to its audio chatroom in recent months. Co-hosts and Ticketed Spaces are to name a few. Going forward, Twitter is working on a dedicated tab for Spaces in the main app. It also recently launched a creators fund to support Spaces creators. Twitter Spaces became available to everyone last week.
