Some major changes are coming to the Twitter post-edit feature

Blue subscribers on the bird app get access to the Twitter post edit feature. With this feature, they can edit posts to correct mistakes or add new information, previously the wait time to edit a post was 30 minutes. Now the bird app is increasing the wait time for those wanting to edit a post on Twitter, they can now do so after an hour.

By adding 30 more minutes to the original wait time, Twitter is expanding the edit window for their users. So even if you find out that you made an error in a tweet, you can make the edit under 1 hour after the tweet. This time increase is great, especially for users that lead a busy life and might not notice an error on their tweet early enough.

Well, despite the time increment, this Twitter post-edit feature remains limited to Blue subscribers. So if you are a Twitter Blue subscriber, you can benefit from this time increase for editing your posts where you make errors. This time increment is coming in light of some changes that Twitter has undergone in the past weeks.

Twitter Blue subscribers can now use the post-edit feature an hour after posting a tweet

Twitter is increasing the wait time to edit a post from 30 minutes to an hour. The company took to their Twitter Blue page to announce this change with a tweet. To announce the feature, they tweeted, “Blue subscribers now have up to 1 hour to edit their tweets.”

Despite being able to edit their tweets in under an hour, Blue subscribers won’t be able to edit their replies. The exact tweet that Twitter used to introduce this feature was first posted and then edited after a while. After the edit, there was no time stamp to show how long the user waited before making the edit.

But users can calculate how long a Blue subscriber waited before making an edit to their tweet. To do this, the user will need to have seen the first tweet and taken note of the time it was posted. After the edit, Twitter will update the tweet with a little pen icon followed by a “Last edited” and then the edit time.

With these details, a user can then calculate how long it took a Blue subscriber to edit the tweet, hence correcting any errors. This Twitter post-edit feature time increment will join a host of other features the Bird app is making available to users. One feature that might arrive at Twitter is a job search tab, which will be made possible by the company’s most recent purchase.

The increment to the tweet edit feature’s time window comes a few days after a major resignation. This one involves the head of content moderation at Twitter, who took her leave with little reason for her actions. However, this Twitter post edit feature will catch the fancy of most Blue subscribers.
