You Can Now Edit Dms On X Twitter Here S How To Do It
Mike (@cambridgemike), one of the engineers at X shared a post talking about this new feature and then, X’s official account reshared the post officially announcing the new edit option for private DMs. As of now, it is only coming to the iOS version of the app, but the good thing is that you don’t need X premium to use it. Yep, it is free to use for everyone on the app. Here’s how it works.
How to Edit Messages on X
You can modify any of the older messages you sent on X using the Edit messages feature. Here’s how you can do it:
Rewritten messages will have an “Edited” label below them, so it isn’t as foolproof as Snapchat’s edit feature. While you can edit older messages, X will keep the data of the original messages for security purposes. There is a limit to how many messages you can edit. The platform currently lets you only edit a message up to five times, just like posts on X.
This new addition brings the app up to speed with other apps that have already included this feature. I know a lot of you who tend to send edgy DMs to others, just to regret later, will find this new addition quite handy. Hopefully, it drops for Android soon enough as well.
