Twitter’s deletion process is two-step: first deactivation, then permanent removal. Here’s How to Delete Your Twitter Account:
Step 1: Deactivate Your Account
- Log in to your Twitter account.
- Click “More” on the left-hand side.
- Go to “Settings and Support” then “Settings and privacy”.
- Under “Your account,” select “Deactivate your account.”
- Choose your deactivation timeframe: 30 days is standard, but you can opt for 12 months.
- Read the information and click “Deactivate.”
- Enter your password and click “Deactivate” again to confirm.
Step 2: Wait for Permanent Deletion
- Don’t log in during your chosen timeframe. After that period, Twitter will permanently delete your account.
- Important: Your username will become available for others to use once your account is gone.
Key Points
- Deactivation puts your account on hold, allowing you to reactivate it within the chosen timeframe.
- If you want to protect your current username, consider changing it before deactivating, as it becomes available once your account is fully deleted.
