Beginning in December, Twitter has allowed users to see the number of views on their tweets. This option is already available for videos. Elon Musk recently confirmed the new feature on Twitter during a tweet. In mid-November, Musk had assured followers he would be rolling out this feature with a tweet as soon as it became available. Additional updates have been made to Twitter For Business to change profile pictures, which now show brands in squares.
As per Elon Musk’s tweet, the View Count will let users see how many times a tweet has been viewed. He said that this new feature is normal for video. Also, he said it would prove Twitter is more alive than it appears, as more than 90 percent of users read, but do not re-tweet, reply, or like a tweet.
Meant to say impressions

This feature is currently available on iOS and Android apps, as well as the web version. The view count will only be visible on new tweets, not older ones.
Meanwhile, Twitter has also introduced new Blue for Business subscription. Businesses and users can distinguish themselves from other users with square profile pictures for brands. Additionally, Blue for Business will enable companies to link their affiliated brands, businesses, and individuals to their accounts with the new features. Along with the verification badge, affiliated users’ accounts will receive a badge of their parent company’s profile picture once linked.
Currently, the feature is only available to a limited number of businesses, but will be available to more businesses next year.
