Whether you’re starting fresh on social media or you just want to get rid of some old and embarrassing tweets, then you may want to know how to delete all tweets on X (formerly known as Twitter). Luckily there is a simple solution to this issue.
One way to delete all tweets is of course doing it one-by-one on your X profile, however this can get repetitive and boring real quick. Unfortunately, X doesn’t have a way to delete all Tweets within the app or website itself but fear not, there is third-party software that can do this for you.
We’ve opted for Redact , which allows you delete all tweets quickly and easily. It does require you to download an application which can only be used on Windows, Mac or Linux, so it cannot be used from a mobile phone. You’ll have to jump in front of a PC or laptop for this one.
