X (formerly Twitter) has got a new update on iOS platform. It has replaced almost all instances of Twitter. Details here.

Elon Musk's X, the rebranded name of the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, rolled out its 10.0 update for iOS on Monday. This new update brings significant changes to the app's interface, replacing almost all mentions of "Twitter" with X, renaming “Tweets” to "Posts", and “Retweets” to "Reposts". The app's tagline, displayed on Apple's App Store, has been updated to "Blaze your glory!"

Earlier in the day, Musk himself confirmed the changes by tweeting the new tagline.

Users on Android can expect a similar update, as it has been reported through Beta updates. The Android version of the app is expected to be released shortly.

Goodbye Blue bird, hello X!

Twitter recently introduced a brand-new logo, replacing its iconic blue bird with a simple X as part of its efforts to rebrand. The new logo features a white X on a sleek black background.

The decision to change the logo came after Musk in a series of posts on the social media platform revealed his plans to bid farewell to the Twitter name and gradually remove all bird-related elements. In response, the company quickly redirected the website from http://X.com to https://twitter.com within a few hours.
