Just use the desktop site or mobile app to do it. You can also use third-party software to do it as well. Here are the steps. Followers are no longer visible on your profile. Unfollowing is a much easier process than blocking them. Hopefully, this article has helped. Keep reading to learn how to remove a follower on Twitter.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Unfollowing_a_user_is_easier_than_blocking_them\"><\/span>Unfollowing a user is easier than blocking them<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to blocking other users, unfollowing them on Twitter is easier than blocking them. Blocking a person means you cannot view their profile. Unfollowing them simply means you want to follow them again. To unfollow a person on Twitter, open their profile and tap the three dot menu icon. You will see an undo banner on the screen. Tap the undo button to undo your decision. The user you blocked will then no longer appear in your list.<\/p>\n<p>You can also block a user by clicking on their account name. The process is similar to blocking a user on Twitter. Click the three-dot menu at the top-right corner of their profile. Select the appropriate option. If you think a user has made an offensive tweet, you can click on the &#8220;Report&#8221; button. Upon clicking this button, you will need to explain your reasoning.<\/p>\n<p>While blocking someone will remove them from your followers, it will also block you from their direct message history. This will leave you unable to contact them through direct messages, unless you explicitly ask them to. By blocking a user on Twitter, you are essentially telling them that you don&#8217;t want to be followed by them. However, blocking someone who isn&#8217;t following you is not the easiest option. Luckily, Twitter is testing this option.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_the_mobile_site\"><\/span>Using the mobile site<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to remove a follower from your Twitter profile, you can do it from the mobile site. To do so, sign in to your Twitter account. Click the profile icon to open your profile. From here, tap the Followers count to view all the people who follow you. To remove multiple followers, tap the three dots to expand the menu. Click the &#8216;unfollow&#8217; option next to each follower&#8217;s name.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can also block a user, and in doing so, they will not be able to view your tweets. If this happens, you can always delete their following from your Twitter profile. However, you can&#8217;t unblock a follower if they have followed you back. Regardless of the reason for unfollowing you, remember that it won&#8217;t affect your ability to connect with anyone else.<\/p>\n<p>The mobile website is a great way to delete unwanted followers. You can even block yourself. Twitter has recently added the option to remove followers on mobile devices, as well as on the desktop website. To do this, you&#8217;ll need to log in to your Twitter account, choose the &#8216;Profile&#8217; option, and then click on the &#8216;Followers&#8217; tab. Here, you&#8217;ll find the follower you&#8217;d like to remove. Click the &#8216;Remove this follower&#8217; button to complete the process.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_third-party_software\"><\/span>Using third-party software<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are some basic methods that you can use to unfollow a particular person on Twitter. If you don&#8217;t know how to block multiple people, you can try contacting Twitter directly. They have a section in their Help Center where you can fill out a form and give them specific details of your issue. They will then get back to you with a solution. However, if you have a large amount of followers, you might want to consider using a third-party service.<\/p>\n<p>Twitter has recently rolled out a new feature that allows you to remove a follower without blocking them. You can do this by navigating to their profile and clicking the three-dot menu. On the following user&#8217;s profile, click the three-dot icon and choose &#8216;Remove this follower&#8217;. The unfollower will not be notified of your decision. In contrast to blocking someone, unfollowing them is more like remote unfollowing.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to block a user, you can use third-party software to remove the person from your Twitter account. Third-party applications are designed to mass delete followers. Circleboom and Twitter Unfollower are examples of such third-party software. You can also use a Twitter blocker to block users. This way, you can block users without the fear of being blocked by Twitter. But be warned: using third-party software is not a foolproof solution.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe height=\"240\" width=\"429\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EhBwrcNGQns\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Remove a Follower on Twitter If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to remove a follower on Twitter, it&#8217;s easy to do.
