San Francisco: The direct message (DM) option on Twitter has been removed by the microblogging platform on Android and iOS applications. The option used allows users to send a direct message to another user, IANS reported.

The "DM" button, which usually appears next to the follow and notification buttons, has disappeared without any replacement, reported 9To5Google.

This seems to be the situation for all Twitter accounts and is probably just a small bug.

It is difficult to figure out whether this was done on purpose by the platform, given the way the service is now run.

In the meantime, users can still send a direct message by looking up the desired account in the messages tab, the report said.

Last week, Twitter Boss Elon Musk announced that a higher-priced subscription to the microblogging platform with no ads would be available in the coming weeks.

Meanwhile, Musk also announced that the upcoming update of the platform would make it less mandatory for users to use the "For You" algorithmic timeline.
