Perhaps you&#8217;ve decided to change your name, don&#8217;t have time to manage your account anymore, or you&#8217;ve simply become bored of it. Whatever the reason, the process of deleting your account isn&#8217;t as easy as it sounds. Read on to learn how to close your Twitter account for good. But be aware that the process can be long and tedious.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_twitter_account_on_desktop\"><\/span>Delete twitter account on desktop<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking to shut your Twitter account on your desktop, you&#8217;ve probably wondered how you can do it. While Twitter is much smaller than Facebook and other social media platforms, it still has 217 million monetizable daily active users. Its lack of popularity has led many to move away from the site in recent years, partly due to privacy concerns. If you&#8217;re thinking of closing your Twitter account, you should know that you&#8217;re not the only one. There are some benefits to shutting down your account, including better productivity and mental health.<\/p>\n<p>One benefit of shutting down your Twitter account is that it is relatively easy to do. While Twitter may be enjoyable, the information it provides can be overwhelming. If you don&#8217;t feel like using Twitter anymore, you can download an archive of your data before deactivating it. And if you don&#8217;t like the new look and feel of Twitter&#8217;s platform, you can also opt out of the Tips &amp; Tricks newsletter that provides expert advice about how to use the social network. This newsletter may contain advertising or affiliate links, and you can always unsubscribe at any time.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_twitter_account_on_mobile_device\"><\/span>Delete twitter account on mobile device<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Delete your Twitter account from your mobile device. This simple process is available on the Twitter mobile app. After you sign in to your account, tap the profile icon and then select &#8220;more&#8221; to deactivate your account. The data you&#8217;ve created will be deleted after 30 days. Just be sure to confirm the deletion by clicking the &#8220;Yes&#8221; button. After a few days, your Twitter account will be completely deleted.<\/p>\n<p>If you decide to delete your Twitter account from your mobile device, you can do so within 30 days. Then, you can reactivate your account by following the process above. However, you must be patient enough to wait for the account deletion process to be completed. After the 30 days, you will no longer be able to access your tweets or view the public profile. Furthermore, you will not be able to register a new account for at least 30 days after the account has been deactivated.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_twitter_account_from_third-party_apps\"><\/span>Delete twitter account from third-party apps<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to delete your Twitter account, you can do so on the website, mobile app, and third-party applications. You can also permanently delete your account. You can&#8217;t reactivate it, but old tweets remain visible on search engines and may appear on Twitter&#8217;s archive. The deactivation process is a one-time process, so make sure you complete it correctly to avoid any issues.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, you should log out of any app that is connected to your Twitter account. This way, you can prevent other apps from using your account. Also, you should ensure that the app does not use your username and password to send spam. Make sure to change your password, as it&#8217;s likely that a third party application will use your password to log into your Twitter account. However, if you&#8217;ve made any mistakes, you can always undo any mistakes.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_twitter_account_from_Google\"><\/span>Delete twitter account from Google<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering how to delete Twitter account from Google, there are two methods you can use. First, you can disconnect your account from your Gmail account. You can also change your registered email. However, this method can be a bit tedious. The alternative is to contact Twitter support and request a code from them. After receiving the code, you can use it to reset your password. If you&#8217;ve forgotten your password, you can also use third-party applications to help you with this.<\/p>\n<p>While you&#8217;re using the Google Search Console to request your account be removed from search results, keep in mind that Twitter does not control what appears in search results. Google update their index and search results frequently, so your Tweets may remain visible for some time. Eventually, your Tweets will be removed from search results, but if you don&#8217;t want to wait, you can try the steps below. If you&#8217;ve deleted tweets that are protected by Twitter, you can also delete them using the Google Search Console.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"380\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"212\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8rJdoizJSX4\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do You Close Your Twitter Account?
