Twitter will give edit button for tweets when ‘everyone wears a mask’

Twitter says it will roll out the much-anticipated Edit button if everyone wears a face mask to help health authorities fight the Covid-19 pandemic globally.

In a series of tweets, the micro-blogging platform emphasised on maintaining social distancing and wear a mask.

"You can have an edit button when everyone wears a mask," Twitter said on Thursday.

Twitter users have been asking for an Edit button to avoid embarrassment when they accidentally send tweets with typos and spelling errors.
