Twitter has officially announced an edit button, a day after Elon Musk tweeted a poll asking users if they wanted one. Read on for more details.
The edit button will first come to Twitter Blue, where it will be tried and tested. Twitter has announced it is working on a feature to edit tweets, a day after newly appointed board member and Twitter’s highest shareholder Elon Musk ran a poll on his personal account asking users if they wanted an edit button. Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal had retweeted the tweet, asking users to “vote carefully.” However, Twitter has clarified on its official account that the button was in the works for a year now and they “didn’t get the idea from a poll.” The edit button feature would initially be rolled out in the coming months only on Twitter Blue, a premium service, where it will be tested.
