After acquiring Twitter for $44 billion, billionaire Elon Musk has been making drastic changes to the app. It all started with renaming it as 'X'. Later, Twitter introduced the Blue subscription feature, removing the '240 character' limit for tweets and giving the option to share longer videos. A few days ago, the app also introduced audio-video calling feature.
Soon, Musk plans to transform the micro-blogging site X into an 'everything app' with online payment, dating and e-commerce features.
However, Elon Musk has revealed about the next feature to be introduced in X. He says that soon you will be able to enjoy long videos on smart televisions through the social network 'X'. Currently, YouTube is the most used app on smart TVs. Elon Musk aims to challenge YouTube through X.
Yes, the aim is to launch a new X app exclusively for TVs. According to a Fortune report, the X TV app will be available first on Samsung and Amazon smart TVs. Musk's plan is to go head-to-head with other social media giants, not just Google. Game streamers' bastion Twitch, messaging app Signal and Reddit could all introduce an alternative service.
