That was the holding company, not Twitter itself. It does seem like Elon is going all in with the X rebranding, though.

> Twitter has ceased to exist as a company, having merged with another entity called X Corp, according to a court filing.

The company is now X, the logo is X, the <title> tag says X, and the app is now X.

Only the .com remains, for now. I suspect it’s the hardest to change.

x.com is working, though I haven’t checked what happens past the login screen

x.com is a redirect to twitter.com (or, if its not now, it was a permanent redirect sometime in the past week when I tried, and my browser is still respecting it.)

The app is not X because Apple doesn’t allow single letter iOS application names on the App Store. It’s still Twitter on my phone and seems like they haven’t even bothered correctly rolling out the new icon around the world… I have automatic updates on and the icon is still the blue bird for me here in Australia.

on my android here in australia it was changed a few days ago

Must have gotten something worked out with Google then, or someone was wrong when reposting/combining info on Twitter… which was definitely a possible reason… but the iOS half seems to still be true at least for me in Australia…

Sad follow up for anyone coming across this later… but alas it has indeed now changed to X for me too…
