Hi! I would like to know if the 24hs period in which my app can answer a message can me extended or not:

you may send up to 5 messages in response within a 24 hour window.

Direct Message Docs

Tanks!

Can I ask why you think you would need to do that?

Account limits for posting Tweets and Direct Messages are in 24 hour windows.

An account can send up to 1000 Direct Messages in a 24 hour window, but this is flexible for Direct Message bots.

The item you are picking out there, refers to the flexible way in which an app / bot can reply to messages.

For each individual inbound Direct Message received, you can reply to that 1 message, up to 5 times inside of 24 hours, without counting for more than 1 message. So that means you can build more conversational experiences, without needing to wait for back-and-forth replies from a user.

There is no way to extend the 24 hour period; it is core to the way that account and rate limits work on Twitter.

Ah! Ok, but if I try to answer to the user after the 24 hs period I will be able to do it?
