Twitter client since 2009 Brizzly is back with its Brizzly Plus service, a subscription that costs $6 per month, or $60 annually and gives people access to non-native Twitter features like an undo button and auto-deletion.

With access to the undo button, subscribers can customise their tweet, by setting a delay between when they type and send their tweet and when it gets posted.

Users have the option to choose from no delay, a 10-second delay, or a 10-minute delay and during that time period, users can click “undo” anytime which deletes the tweet instantly and gives them time to rethink what they wish to post.

Users can also edit any tweet as Brizzly deletes the older one; the auto-delete feature will enable users to pick an option between 24 hours, one week, or one month to have their tweets deleted regardless of whether they were sent through .

If you wish to keep a specific tweet then you could simply use the “Fave to Save,” feature which saves it from being deleted.

At present, third-party services like Brizzly offer the 'edit your tweet' feature because Twitter does not allow it.

“We started as an SMS, text message service. And as you all know, when you send a text, you can’t really take it back,” said Jack Dorsey, CEO Twitter in January.

“We wanted to preserve that vibe, that feeling, in the early days.”

Dorsey feels that editing your Tweet defeats the original purpose of Twitter, but at $70 per year, user can avail the feature from Brizzly.
