“You can now submit an application to request verification in-app, right from your account settings,” said Twitter in a tweet that millions around the world had been waiting for.
Once you’ve opened the application link under “Verified” in your account settings:
1. Tell us which eligible category matches your account
2. Choose how you’d like us to confirm your identity
3. Submit the request and we’ll let you know when you can expect a decision pic.twitter.com/8Fipz9ESmr— Twitter Verified (@verified) May 20, 2021
Twitter had suspended the verification process in what it termed as some users taking the verification from Twitter to mean endorsement. The giant company has insisted that its verification is not an endorsement.
