X, formerly Twitter, led by tech billionaire Elon Musk, announced that it has fixed a bug that led the platform to mislabel numerous posts as "Sensitive Media." The company stated that the flaw in its system erroneously identified several legitimate accounts. However, the issue has now been fixed. 

“A bug in our system caused X to incorrectly label numerous posts as Sensitive Media,” X posted.

“We’ve fixed the underlying issue and are now working to remove labels from impacted posts," it added.

X boss Musk also said that "X spam/scam bot accidentally flagged many legitimate accounts" which was being fixed by the company.

Meanwhile, X is rolling out calling support and the update is currently available for Android smartphone users. The noteworthy aspect is that audio and video call support on X is free for all X users with the latest app update, which means users do not need an X premium subscription to make and recieve audio and video calls on the platform.

After being available for iOS users since October, the feature is now extending to Android users. Similar to the iOS experience, making outgoing calls requires an X Premium subscription, while users on the free tier can only receive incoming calls.

With the addition of this feature, much like Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp and other social networking apps, users on the micro-blogging platform X will also be able to make video and audio chat calls as X shifts to become an "everything app".

This update gives X users the ability to initiate video or audio calls with their relatives, contacts, or followers. The feature is integrated into the micro-blogging platform's settings and you can promptly enable or disable it for your account by following these steps.

To recall, since his acquisition of the platform, Musk has posted his plans of transitioning "Twitter" into an "everything app" that included 25,000-character-long posts. After renaming Twitter to X, Musk officially renamed the aggregating platform TweetDeck to XPro.
