Twitter plans to launch a new, more expensive subscription plan for users of Apple devices on Monday. “We’re relaunching @TwitterBlue on Monday – subscribe on the web for $8 a month or on iOS (Apple’s operating system used on iPhones, Ed) for $11 a month to get access to subscriber-only features , including the blue check mark,” the group said in a tweet.
The blue tick will be granted after verification, specifies the group. It will change to gold for businesses and later in the week to gray for government organizations. Subscribers will also have access to the function to correct tweets after they have been published or to download better quality videos. “Thank you for your patience while we strive to improve Blue,” the band wrote on their official account.
Upon the takeover of Twitter at the end of October, Elon Musk announced his intention to launch a paid formula to diversify the revenues of the platform, whose financial health largely depends on its revenue.
