Do you want the Edit button on Twitter?
If you are a regular Twitter user, you may have already wanted an edit button to edit your already published tweets.
The Twitter edit tweet button is a long-awaited feature.
Twitter Will Launch Edit Button for Users: eAskme |
The good news is that Twitter is already working on creating the Edit button, and soon they will test the Edit button feature with a limited number of users.
Since last year, Twitter has officially announced that they are working on an edit feature.
Twitter will start testing the edit button with premium users in the coming days.
Twitter’s announcement came after the poll published by Elon Musk on Twitter asking users if they wanted an edit button. Elon Musk already owns a 9.2% share of Twitter stock, and it seems that Twitter is taking him seriously.

now that everyone is asking…

yes, we’ve been working on an edit feature since last year!
no, we didn’t get the idea from a poll 😉
we're kicking off testing within @TwitterBlue Labs in the coming months to learn what works, what doesn’t, and what’s possible.
Twitter will test the Edit button with Twitter Blue subscribers.
The brand will use Twitter blue labs to test features with its premium users.
The test will help Twitter find out if they should allow the edit button without creating panic among existing users.
Twitter should consider the following aspects:
- How much time does it give users to edit tweets?
- How many times can a user edit tweets?
- How will followers get notified about the edit?
Some argue that editing year older tweets can cause massive confusion. Twitter has to decide the time window to allow users to edit the published tweet.
Conclusion:
Two things are clear with the Edit button announcement. One that Twitter is serious about Elon Musk.
Second, Twitter is working on the Edit button, and if everything goes in the right direction, we will be using the Edit button by the end of 2022.
It will be great to see when Twitter finally launches the Edit button and how users will react to this new feature.
