# Elon Musk claims he will create his own smartphone if Apple and Google prohibit Twitter.

- The Tesla CEO may soon introduce a product that competes with iOS and Android.
- If Apple and Google prohibit Twitter, Musk will develop a new phone.
- The Google and Apple App Stores may prohibit Twitter due to problems with content control.

The new [**Twitter CEO**](https://www.mindstick.com/news/2456/elon-musk-discloses-his-future-intentions-and-starts-hiring-for-twitter-2-0), [Elon Musk](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/85512/elon-musk-mark-zuckerberg-two-business-tycoon-of-similar-age), is a superhuman. The CEO of Tesla might soon launch a product that is similar to iOS and Android. He wouldn't consider developing his own phone, though, until **Apple or Google removed his recently bought firm, Twitter, from the app stores.** The Google and Apple App Stores may prohibit Twitter due to problems with content control.\
If Twitter is removed from the Google or Apple app stores, Musk will undoubtedly develop a new phone, he said to a Twitter user who questioned whether he would do so. If **Musk violates their policies, Apple and Google may easily remove Twitter from the app stores.**

Twitter's [membership](https://www.mindstick.com/interview/2228/in-which-database-is-the-information-such-as-membership-role-management-profile-and-web-parts-personalization-stored) model will launch next week, according to a [recent announcement](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/38732/according-to-the-recent-announcement-by-the-union-home-ministry-what-percentage-of-reservation-will-be-accorded-to-women-at-the-constable-level-posts-in-both-crpf-and-cisf-with-immediate-effect) by Musk. The plan, which provides users access to exclusive features and a checkmark next to their names, would cost $8, according to Musk.

If the launch goes smoothly, [**Twitter's**](https://www.mindstick.com/news/2456/elon-musk-discloses-his-future-intentions-and-starts-hiring-for-twitter-2-0) revenue will increase, but it won't be the only [business](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12213/how-to-start-a-jewellery-making-business-online-business-ideas) to benefit. The paid [subscription](https://www.mindstick.com/news/3093/meta-launches-quest-subscription-for-vr-headsets) strategy for Twitter will also be advantageous to Apple and Google. Recall that both Apple and Google charge a fee for subscriptions bought through their platforms. **For the subscription-based programmes, both IT behemoths charge the [developers](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/12875/blunders-you-must-avoid-while-hiring-java-developers-to-get-the-best-fulfilling-your-needs) 15%. A 15% price cut was made to the original 30% pricing.**

Elon Musk has consistently lambasted Apple and Google for charging the [commission](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/62212/who-has-been-elected-as-the-first-female-president-of-the-european-commission), even though the other developers are forced to pay it. **He claimed that they are '10 times more' than they ought to be and referred to it as a “tax on the internet.”** According to renowned [tech](https://www.mindstick.com/services/technologies) analyst Mark Gurman, if Musk tries to go around Apple and Google's payment system, they might kick Twitter out of the stores.
