    Dear “can you verify me” –– Save your Tweets and DMs, there’s a new official way to apply for a blue badge, rolling out over the next few weeks. You can now submit an application to request verification in-app, right from your account settings! -Your verified blue badge source

    App version of the first screen of the verification application. The headline reads, “Verification request” with a description below that reads, “Verification is for notable people or groups within a specific category. If that sounds like you, start a verification request.” A “Learn more” link follows and a “Start request” button is below that.
