I’m sure this won’t end up being a huge deal, but the funny part is that this apparently wasn’t planned for. Gives you some insight into how much of a shit show Twitter/X HQ must be right now.

It’s been renamed to X on my partner’s iPhone so they seem to have gotten round it already.

Same for me but the App Store page for the app still says Twitter. Changing it there requires approval I think.

If it’s like Android apps, the name in the app store and on the phone can be different.
