We’ve been pleading with Twitter for so long to allow us to edit our tweets, and we were delighted to learn earlier this year that the company was developing that capability. Today, it appears like Twitter is testing the capability of allowing users to modify tweets, but there is a small catch. You must be a Twitter Blue subscriber.
Given that Twitter made this announcement a few months ago, this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise. On customers of its premium service, the business is testing this feature. This wouldn’t be as disappointing if the service hadn’t recently seen a price increase. Prior until recently, Twitter Blue was $2.99 per month, but it is now $4.99.
THE EDIT TWEET FEATURE IS BEING TESTED BY TWITTER You should be able to update your tweets fairly soon if you use Twitter Blue and haven’t been turned away by the price rise. Users of Twitter Blue will soon be able to modify their tweets, according to a Twitter blog pos t.

Only for a brief period of time will you be able to alter the tweet. Initially, reports said that users would get an entire hour to edit a tweet; however, the test only gives users 30 minutes. When the feature exits testing, we’re not sure if that will change.
Just remember that you’re not actually modifying the tweet when you make the adjustment. What you’re actually doing is altering a second copy of the original tweet. This means that the firm will make the original tweet accessible and that it will still be present on the site. This way, if someone wants to attempt and cover up a hot take that is a bit too spicy, folks will be able to see what they initially typed!
