We will no longer know if there are companies like Samsung or Huawei that tweet from an iPhone, Elon Musk has removed this function from Twitter.
Elon Musk came to Twitter with an idea for change that he really doesn’t seem to know how to achieve. After the problem with Twitter Blue and the threat to charge all users to use the social network, the next measure of the eccentric owner of Twitter was to eliminate the device from which the message was written. Tweeter.
From practically the beginnings of Twitter, just below each Tweeter we can see from which platform it was written with texts like “Twitter for iPhone” or “Twitter for Android”. However, it seems that good old Elon doesn’t like it and has decided not to post this message anymore.
Elon Musk continues his changes on Twitter, it will take a lot of the sauce off us
Really It’s not too profound a change. and no one knows exactly why Twitter showed this, but what is clear is that it will make life better for many official account CMs.
And we will finally stop adding the device a tweet was written on (waste of screen space and computation) below each tweet. Literally no one even knows why we did this…

Android Account Community Managers, Now You Can Use an iPhone Without a Problem
This change of Twitter promoted by Elon Musk will save us many funny situations. For years we have seen how official accounts of Android brands, such as Samsung, Huawei or Google, tweeted using the iPhone instead of your own devices.
Several official Samsung accounts tweeted this iPhone, now we won’t know
This has led to a lot of criticism and even layoffs at some of these brands. of course now all CMs with this type of account will be much more relaxed and will be able to use their iPhone normally. Twitter will no longer reveal that even though they work for these brands, they use an iPhone.
Instead of “Twitter for iPhone” or “Twitter for Android”, we’ll start seeing other sentence types and platforms who manage the social networks of each account.
This change of Twitter it won’t affect us too much, only that we won’t know which brands use the iPhone instead of their own devices. It’s certainly not as big a change as the double check that Elon has also enabled on Twitter, but it’s going to take away a lot of great stories.
