X Platform Enhances Free Accounts with New Features

The microblogging platform “X,” previously known as Twitter, has recently enhanced its service. It now offers new features for its free account users. These features were once exclusive to “Twitter Blue” subscribers.
Expanded Accessibility
This update marks a significant shift in “X’s” strategy. It aims to provide more value to non-paying users. The inclusion of previously premium features in free accounts reflects a broader trend in social media platforms. They are increasingly seeking to attract and retain users by offering more free services.
Enhanced Communication Capabilities
“X” has made an exciting addition to its platform. Free account users can now engage in voice and video calls. This feature was initially available last year, but only for iPhone users. It was also restricted to “Twitter Blue” subscribers. The company’s decision to expand this feature to all users, including those on Android devices, significantly enhances the platform’s communication capabilities.
Elon Musk’s Vision for X
Elon Musk, the American billionaire and owner of “X,” platform has been vocal about his plans for the platform. In January, he expressed his intention to make voice and video calls accessible to all users. This step was contingent on the company’s confidence in the stability and reliability of these features.
Democratizing Communication
By democratizing access to these advanced features, “X” platform is not just enhancing user experience. It is also competing more aggressively with other social media and communication platforms. This move could attract new users while also increasing engagement among existing ones.
User Requirements for New Feature
To access the new calling features, “X” platform users must meet certain requirements. Both parties in a call must have connected via direct messaging at least once. Users also need to download the latest update of “X.” This ensures that everyone has access to the newest features and security enhancements.
Settings for Receiving Calls
An important aspect of the new calling feature is its flexibility. Users can receive calls from anyone on the app, not just their followers. To enable this, users must adjust their settings. The default setting is “followers only,” but it can be changed to “everyone.” This adjustment allows for broader communication opportunities.
The introduction of these new features on “X” platform represents a significant step in the evolution of social media platforms. By offering advanced communication tools for free, “X” is not only enhancing its user experience. It’s also redefining the landscape of digital communication and social networking.
