According to The Verge, under the strong support of Musk, Twitter (Twitter) has recently started the process of changing its name. At present, the iOS and Android clients have been renamed X. However, according to feedback from some Apple users, Twitter still retains its original name in the Apple App Store.
“Washington Post” reporter Taylor Lorenz posted on Twitter’s competing Threads platform that Twitter’s inability to change its name is likely because Apple’s App Store requires app names to have “at least two letters.” He also said that Twitter is still describing the name of the app as “Twitter” in app updates.
Product designer Nick Sheriff said on Twitter that Apple does not allow any application to use a single character as a name on iOS. But if Twitter gets special approval, it would mark the first time a company has received such permission since the App Store was founded.
However, on the home screen of an iOS device, the application name can be a single character, which is why the current name of the application has been displayed as “X” after downloading/updating, and the logo of the application has also been modified.
According to previous reports, according to the feedback from netizen @flobo09, after Twitter changed its name to X, it triggered the anti-phishing function of Microsoft Edge browser, reminding users that the “official” app may be fake.
