Elon Musk: A new feature has recently been added to Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter), which users were waiting for a long time. Now X users have got a chance to edit their sent direct messages (DM). This new feature has been announced from the official handle of X, and this feature will work just like the message editing feature of instant messaging app WhatsApp. This means that now users will be able to edit the sent message for some time, making it possible to correct mistakes and send more accurate information.

Importance and utility of DM Edit feature

Since buying Twitter in 2022, Elon Musk has made many important changes to X. The main objective of these changes is to bring X in competition with all social media platforms of Meta. The steps taken in this direction include: the facility to post long and short videos, the possibility of post editing, and the option to increase the character limit. Now the DM Edit feature is another important addition to this list.

Under this feature, users can now edit their sent direct messages. This will be especially useful in cases when a message is mistyped or when the user has new information they want to include in the message.

How to use the Edit DM feature

At the moment, this new feature is only available for iOS users. If you have an iPhone, you can use this feature. Follow the following steps to use it:
Update the X app: First, make sure you have downloaded and installed the latest version of X on your iPhone.
Open the X app: Open the X app on your iPhone.
Go to the DM section: Go to the Direct Message section of the app and send a message to someone.
Edit the message: Tap on the three-dot menu on the sent message and select the 'Edit' option. Here you can make the changes you want to make to your message.
Save the changes: After editing, tap on 'Save' and your message will be corrected.

Summary

X, led by Elon Musk, has introduced another important feature that provides more control and flexibility to the users. With the DM Edit feature, you can now improve your sent messages, thereby increasing the accuracy and effectiveness of communication. However, the use of this feature is currently available only for iOS users, but it is expected to roll out to other platforms soon. With these new features of X, communicating on social media will become even more convenient and accurate.
