Twitter on Saturday launched an updated version of its iOS app that promises to allow users to pay a monthly subscription to receive a blue checkmark on their profiles, a feature that Elon Musk, the company’s new owner, has proposed as a way to fight spam on the platform. The app’s latest update was outlined on Apple’s App Store, stating that users will now have to pay $7.
Esther Crawford, a director of product management at Twitter, confirmed the service was not yet live, writing in a tweet: “The new Blue isn’t live yet — the sprint to our launch continues but some folks may see us making updates because we are testing and pushing changes in real-time.” The feature, Twitter’s App Store page said, is available to iOS users in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
Vanity Birds!
The world is so mysterious. Nothing more amazing than this post.
This is closer than we think.
'Updated'. 'Promises.' is speaking Musk's Newspeak...
So what wld be the point then? Oooh u got $8 a month to spend ur cool
I guess losing 4 million a day wasn’t good enough the clown musk is about to find out he’s not as smart as he think he is 😂 jack is launching a new social media app soon so musk will be left with the gqp traitors party and all the crazies , he made his bed with them
iihtishamm
Does this mean Twitter is now paid? So far I don't have any news about it... Elon Musk, are you going to pay Twitter and put its users under scrutiny as well? Amen
The blue checkmark is about to lose it's original purpose and value.
Aand it doesn’t work. Pretty much like everything else Musk releases- see his full self driving product on his cars
A lot of companies have paid for benefits. No big deal.
Nope.
and those who have the blue marks for five years will eventually have a red twitter logo , the cardinal 🤣
Wow. So many cheapskates. $8 is nothing.
Why is cnn so concerned by twitters business model?
Anyone can afford $8. Good deal.
Nope.
refuses 2 make a decision 2 fly brianstelter into Venezuela & see if he can interview President Maduro. Breaking views, Brian Stelter is no longer with CNN
What a wonderful way to transfer russian money to Elon’s pockets.
The man who allegedly bought twitter to preserve freedom of speech is making all the changes to make as much money as possible.
What do you get for paying this subscription? What's the value of having this blue check for a non famous person?

Elon Musk's Twitter lays off employees across the company | CNN BusinessTwitter on Friday laid off thousands of employees in departments across the company, in a severe round of cost cutting that could potentially upend how one of the world's most influential platforms operates one week after it was acquired by billionaire Elon Musk.

Twitter founder Jack Dorsey apologizes after Elon Musk lays off staff | CNN BusinessTwitter's founder Jack Dorsey apologized for growing the company too quickly after Elon Musk laid off thousands of employees. CNN! (Shaking head) - have you not been paying attention over the last few years? Elon has been telling us what he envisioned for a better Platform/Twitter for a while now. Seems most Big News can focus on is a miss understood short visioned ‘now’. It's like Elon Musk buys a garage and fires all its mechanics. Let this sink in, no one is gonna take their car that needs repairing to a garage with no mechanics. And the quality of staff was just awful. Rest days? Lattes? Weirdoes?
