Times, USA TODAY, The Atlantic, Reuters, The Daily Beast, Rolling Stone, BuzzFeed, Insider and The Hollywood Reporter.

Subscribers will have up to 60 seconds to preview and make changes to Tweet before it’s public. In addition to that, a new “Reader” feature will allow subscribers to change the font size and turn long threads into an “easier-to-read” experience. They will also get early access to new features as compared to other users.

Notably, the Twitter Blue service is not yet available in India. We have reached out to Twitter India regarding the same. We will update this copy as soon as we hear back.
