Twitter has once again delayed the launch of its Twitter Blue subscription service, which allows users to purchase a verified badge for $8 per month as owner Elon Musk continues his public feud with Apple over its 30 percent in-app purchase fees.

that according to internal messages shared by a Twitter product manager this week, the launch of Twitter Blue has been delayed to “make some tweaks.” Twitter plans to no longer offer subscriptions to its Twitter Blue service via its iPhone app when it relaunches as owner Elon Musk takes issue with Apple over its 30 percent charge for in-app purchases on its platform.

One of the changes reportedly includes requiring users to authenticate via phone number to subscribe to the service. Musk initially planned to launch the service on Tuesday, but has now delayed the relaunch until December 2 — but this timeframe is also subject to change. Twitter will no longer have to pay a Apple a 30 percent cut of all subscriptions by not offering Twitter Blue as an in-app purchase. This likely means that the subscription would be accessible on Twitter’s website itself, allowing Twitter users on all platforms to access the service. Before the service was paused, it was only available to iPhone and iPad users.that tech giant Apple has “mostly stopped advertising” on the platform.

Wrong. No feud

He should just make it 10k a month as the people who NEED it can likely afford it. And those who want it bad enough will pay

Huh?

30% is pretty hefty!

I'm just waiting for suspended accounts to be allowed back onto the platform. My twin brother *cough* was suspended for making a joke about Biden. Totally an unjust suspension by the previous petoh-loving Twitter team. 🤷

just buy Apple too, elonmusk

He should just make it $12/month for everyone using an iPhone.

Seems like Elon will create his own platform for downloading and administering Twitter.

Can anyone tell me does Apple own Android?

Good Show both sides And what qualified as ‘misleading’? Questioning the efficacy of paper masks? Statistics that didn’t fit ‘the science’? Or heaven forbid discussing adverse events from the vaccine?
