YOGYAKARTA - Twitter is slowly evolving into a richer social media service. What started as a basic tool to express the idea of using no more than 140 characters has now gained some advanced features. Let's get used to what Twitter Blue is!

These include Rooms for audio rooms like Clubhouse, voice record support in DMs, newsletters, and more. Finally, the company launched what many users didn't expect - paid subscriptions.

What is Twitter Blue

Twitter Blue presents additional features and facilities at a monthly cost of US$11 through the iOS app or US$8 via the website. Currently, this is only available in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.

In fact, Elon Musk plans to expand it to more areas in the future. This is what you actually get from paying for this service.

Blue tick

Following Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter and overhauling Blue services, verified blue ticks are no longer exclusive to celebrities, businesses, and public figures. On the other hand, anyone with a verified phone number paying for Twitter Blue will get this tick after Twitter staff verified that they were not disguised as anyone else.

Meanwhile, businesses that meet the requirements get a gold tick, and government accounts get a gray tick. For now, Legacyverified accounts will get a blue tick for free. In fact, this can change on the road.

To complicate impeachment efforts, Twitter limits Blue subscriptions to accounts longer than 90 days. So if you have a new account, you have to wait. In addition, changing your profile image, display name, or username will hide the verified check mark until the staff validates your account manually.

Marking folders

Twitter offers all users a free and paid option to tag tweets. The list of markers is private and accessible only to you. It's meant to be a place where you can access all tweets stored within the app - instead of attaching links to your record app for future references.

Blue takes this feature to the next level and introduces a folder. This allows paid users to categorize tweets that arebookmarked based on their preferences. As a result, dig into them and find the exact ones easier and faster, thanks to their respective folders. These features are available on iOS, Android, and web, and your folders will be synced across the platform.

Special application icon

Blue allows iOS and Android users to change the Twitter app icon on their devices. The company currently offers eight colorful icons to choose from. In addition, Twitter sometimes introduces icons with limited time at certain events, such as Halloween. This feature is only for cosmetic purposes and doesn't really add or improve any functionality.

Top article

This feature collects the most articles shared by the people you follow (and also the accounts they follow) in the last 24 hours. This allows you to easily view or read about the topics that are actively shared on your network. The Top Articles section can be accessed via the Profile menu with the right swipe from the left edge of the screen. Or, you can add a shortcut to the navigation bar via the Twitter Blue settings.

Undo Tweet

The Blue feature allows users to view tweets for a few seconds before they are posted publicly. In this way they can correct them to make sure they don't make any type errors before they go live. This feature actually doesn't cancel a live tweet. It only adds a time controller to the post button. Free users can only correct their tweets before pressing the post button as an alternative to this paid feature. Blue users can use it on iOS, Android, and the web.

Image profile of NFT (Lab)

Available on iOS and Android, Blue users can link their crypto wallets and use one of the NFTs they have as profile photos. To differentiate NFT profile photos, Twitter added a hex-shaped frame makes it more recognizable.
