Twitter executives have confirmed that an edit button is nowhere near a priority for them. The Product Lead at Twitter, Kayvon Beykpour made this clear at a press event in San Francisco, USA.

 

He spoke on some product changes that would be coming to Twitter in the near future. However, he took his time to clarify that the company has no plans of introducing an edit button anytime soon.

 

Touching on the subject, Beykpour said, “Honestly, it’s a feature that I think we should build at some point, but it’s not anywhere near the top of our priorities. That’s the honest answer.” According to the executive, some obvious risks are attached to enabling an edit button for tweets.

 

Although, Keykpour admitted Twitter may consider the option at some point. A feature that will enable users to correct a typographical error or make certain clarifications.

Users have called for the edit button constantly on Twitter. During Lil Nas X’s visit to Twitter headquarters, he also joined Twitter users in this quest. In the “Old Town Road” singer’s capacity as CEO of the day, he asked Twitter employees to make it possible to edit tweets.

 

The employees, of course, took his request with a pinch of salt. He threatened to fire them in a humorous banter that did not carry any weight. Twitter also announced some other features that it will introduce.
