X New Feature: X CEO Linda Yaccarino confirmed last month that video calls will arrive on the platform as part of its transition into an “everything app” Corp is planning to soon roll out audio and video calls to premium, subscription-only users. Chris Messina, a tech veteran-turned-investor, disclosed the new code in the X app that enables audio and video calls from other Verified users, from people they follow, or from their address book.
Messina posted on X’s rival Threads, “As hinted in Linda’s sizzle reel, X will be adding audio and video calls shortly.” “Of course, you will have to pay for that feature, as Skype is dead,” he continued. The feature’s description states, “Take your messaging to the next level with audio and video calls.” “Activate the feature and then choose with whom you are comfortable using it.”

Yaccarino stated a month ago that the company is on the verge of breaking even after undergoing massive churn in recent months, including massive layoffs and platform changes. In her first television interview since becoming CEO of X Corp, Yaccarino stated that the platform will soon support video calls as it strives to become a “everything app” similar to China’s WeChat. Since he took over, Musk has always wanted Twitter to become “an app for everything” like WeChat.
CEO Linda Yaccarino confirms that X’s app will soon enable you to make payments and phone friends.
“I have been with the organization for eight weeks. Currently, the operational run rate is close to breaking even, she was quoted as saying.
Soon, “you will be able to make video chat calls without providing your phone number to anyone on the platform,” said the CEO of X. She also discussed additional features, such as long-form videos and creator subscriptions, as well as future digital payment plans. In the near future, one of the features that will be available on X will allow users to send money directly from X’s Direct Messaging feature.
