Twitter is trying to offer its users a more comfortable use with the innovations it brings every day. The highly anticipated Twitter Blue subscription is finally available in the USA, after Canada and Australia. The date when the paid subscription will be made available worldwide is eagerly awaited.
This new subscription system offers users more creative possibilities. For now, there are bookmarks folder, reader mode features, as well as new undo options. Over time, more functions will be activated in line with users’ requests.
What does the Twitter Blue subscription offer?
The Twitter Blue subscription has been available for five months in Canada and Australia. The paid monthly subscription service is finally launching in the US. Users in the US can enjoy all the functions of the subscription for $2.99.
One of the most requested features to come to Twitter is to be able to edit shared tweets. Although it does not work in the same function, the Twitter Blue subscription offers the Undo Tweet feature, with the subscription to the USA close to this.
Users can delete the tweet they shared within the first 30 seconds without anyone seeing it. So in fact, you set an alarm for your post to be shared after 30 seconds, and you have the right to withdraw from posting during this time. To use this feature, you can set a duration of up to 30 seconds or select the “Send now” option while sharing the tweet.
As with any paid subscription, Twitter Blue gives you an ad-free homepage. The 2-minute limit when sharing videos increases to 10 minutes. You can also pin chats to the top, just like in WhatsApp. It allows you to separate the bookmarks section into folders.
Twitter Blue also provides some in-app customization possibilities. You can change the app icon and background theme color. In addition, this paid subscription will give priority to your request when you want to reach the Twitter Support team. You will be able to reach the answers you are looking for more quickly than standard users.
