Twitter Is Finally Getting an Edit Button

Twitter is, at long last, getting an Edit button, adding one of the most requested features to the social media platform.

Twitter broke the word in April that the company was working on the feature after Elon Musk posted a poll asking if users wanted it. The company has now confirmed it is testing the new feature, even giving a glimpse at how it will work.

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.

Jay Sullivan, GM of Consumer and Revenue Product, went into more detail about the features being tested:

2/ Edit has been the most requested Twitter feature for many years. People want to be able to fix (sometimes embarrassing) mistakes, typos and hot takes in the moment. They currently work around this by deleting and tweeting again.
