When Will Twitter Blue Come To India? Read On

New Delhi: According to the new rules rolled out by Elon Musk, to use Twitter meaningfully you need to pay $7.99 monthly. With the entire Twitter communications team in India now fired, people are wondering when the blue tick will come to India.

Twitter Blue is expected to roll out in India in less than a month, Elon Musk has confirmed.

“Hopefully, less than a month,” Musk said in reply to a user’s query on when the premium service would be launched in India.

Twitter Blue with the new verification system is available only on iPhones in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK. In the latest update on the Twitter app in iPhones, the company’s notification read, “Starting today, we’re adding great new features to Twitter Blue, and have more on the way soon. Get Twitter Blue for $7.99/month if you sign up now.”

“Blue checkmark: Power to the people. Your account will get a blue checkmark, just like the celebrities, companies, and politicians you already follow,” Twitter said.

Twitter also gave a summary of some of the new features it will roll out soon for verified accounts.

“Coming soon… Half the ads and much better ones. Since you’re supporting Twitter in the battle against the bots, we’re going to reward you with half the ads and make them twice as relevant,” the company said.

“Post longer videos: You’ll finally be able to post longer videos to Twitter. Priority ranking for quality content: Your content will get priority ranking in replies, mentions and search. This helps lower the visibility of scams, spam, and bots,” it said.
