Twitter Blue is now rolling out to users in the US and New Zealand. Twitter Blue was first unveiled for iOS users in Canada and Australia back in June. The new rollout makes the service accessible on more platforms, Android and web, and expands it to two more countries.
A Twitter Blue subscription costs $2.99 per month in the US. The service gives subscribers access to new features like the ability to undo tweets, upload longer videos, read some articles without advertisements, and more.

One of the main features arriving with Twitter Blue is the ability to undo tweets. It will give subscribers a 60-second window to preview a tweet and makes changes to it before uploading it. The aim here is the help users undo typos or minor errors, although this is a far cry from the much-demanded “Edit Tweet” feature.
Twitter Blue subscribers can also pin conversations to the top of their inboxes and change the colour theme of their Twitter app. The subscription will also give users the ability to read articles from over 300 news outlets like Reuters, USA Today, and more without advertisements. Twitter says a portion of the Blue subscription will go to the news organisation. Subscribers can also upload longer videos, up to 10 minutes, while using the platform on the web.
