Musk’s Everything App X: What Is It? How good will it be? Features Explained

Elon Musk intends to build an app he has dubbed “X” that will do everything. It resembles the Chinese messaging app WeChat in certain ways. According to the billionaire, he wants to expand Twitter’s usefulness, which is why he was involved in the development of X. See what the Everything App X by Elon Musk is and how useful it will be for the next generation.

Musk’s Everything App X

According to Musk, his acquisition of the social media platform Twitter has accelerated the development of X and might cut three to five years off the project’s schedule.

He has offered suggestions for how to make Twitter better, saying that it should resemble WeChat and TikTok, the well-known video-sharing app owned by ByteDance Ltd. that has become popular in the US. He also mentioned the so-called “super applications,” which are used in various Asian regions and let users access a variety of smartphone services, including communications and auto calls.

Musk’s vision for app X
The “All in Podcast” X App focuses on using all services through a single app. The X-app gives users access to a wide range of services, including texting, social networking, video sharing, peer-to-peer payments, automobile rental, and online shopping.

In earlier this week’s negotiations with Twitter, Elon Musk changed his mind and proposed a $44 billion buyout. Additionally, he put out an idea for developing a social media network where users could access everything.

All in Podcast
X will serve as a one-stop shop for all of a customer’s daily digital needs. Just before he attempted to stop the acquisition of Twitter, Musk promised a group of wealthy investors, including Larry Ellison, a fivefold increase in revenue to $26.4 billion by 2028. He might transform Twitter into a WeChat for the free world in six years, achieving 931 million daily users, or about equivalent to the Chinese mega app. Additionally, he might start a payments company at that point that can bring in $1.3 billion yearly, lessening Twitter’s reliance on advertising.

A super software that combines social networking, chat, video games, payments, and the All-In podcast is needed, according to Musk, in the US. Asians use the internet to access big apps, said Scott Galloway, a professor of marketing at New York University and co-host of the “Pivot” technology podcast.

At a town hall meeting with the Twitter team a month later, Musk reiterated that notion. I think if we can do that, or even come close to that at Twitter, it would be an incredible success,” said Elon Musk, according to CNN. He also predicted that Twitter’s user population, which is currently slightly over 200 million, could expand to “at least a billion people.”

Features of app X
Every user will benefit from the capabilities that the X app has. Every element of our digital lives would undoubtedly be impacted, although many of the same services, including

Messaging
Both audio and video calls
Spreading news stories
Streaming media
Playing a video game
Posting photographs of everyday life
Interacting with coworkers at work
Integration of the stock market and cryptocurrencies
Ordering food from restaurants and paying for it
Booking tickets for a show
Calling a cab (or autonomous Tesla)
Elon Must and his X universe
Musk was a co-founder of X.com in 1999, an online bank that later merged with another company to become PayPal. In 2017, he paid an undisclosed sum to PayPal to repurchase the domain name X.com.

In the interim, Musk founded SpaceX in 2002 and unveiled the Model X through his company Tesla in 2015.

To pursue his acquisition of Twitter, Musk established three holding entities in Delaware under the name “X Holdings.”

The plethora of strong players with similar objectives makes it challenging to create a “super app” with a US concentration in the US. Examples include Facebook’s and Instagram’s pushes into e-commerce, and Snapchat’s experiments with peer-to-peer payments. While Amazon has moved into many aspects of daily life, Walmart is now participating in the world of online banking.

Later, in a statement, Twiter said that it had planned to pursue legal action to enforce the agreement. Twitter chairman Bret Taylor tweeted, “The Twitter Board is committed to closing the transaction on the price and terms agreed upon with Mr. Musk.” On 12 July 2022, Twitter Inc sued Elon Musk for violating the $44 billion deal to buy the social media platform and asked a Delaware court to order him to complete the merger at the agreed $54.20 per Twitter share.
