Audio and video calls arriving on X only for premium users

X Corp is planning to soon roll out audio and video calls to premium, subscription-only users, as X CEO Linda Yaccarino confirmed last month that video calls will arrive on the platform as part of its transition into an “everything app.”

Tech veteran-turned-investor Chris Messina revealed the new code in X app which supports audio and video calls from other Verified users from people they follow, or from people in their address book.

“As hinted in Linda’s sizzle reel, X will be adding audio and video calls shortly,” Messina posted on X rival Threads. “You will, of course, have to pay for that feature, because Skype is dead,” he added.
