How To Delete All Tweets From Your Twitter Account At Once?

Sometimes our Twitter account accumulates a lot of tweets. There are a lot of re-tweets of our posts in our account. Sometimes ten tweets of same posts exist in our accounts or we might want to drop all twitter tweets.

Sometimes we use some automatic tools for re-tweeting our posts and within a short time there are thousands of tweets in our account. The number within days rises to ten thousand and more. The number looks good, but if a person goes about to see the tweets made, he is bound to see most of the same tweets. Does it look good? Not in my opinion! So is there a way to delete all our tweets at once?

Twitter doesn’t give an option to delete all tweets at once. There is an external application or probably applications available for deleting all tweets.

It is not always recommended to delete all the tweets, but due to some reason if you decide to do so, you can make use of these great applications!

Delete All Tweets

How To Delete All Tweets?

I tried Twitwipe application for deleting all my account tweets on a test account and it worked properly for me. You can refer the complete TwitWipe review and usage page for more information on how to delete all tweets using Twitwipe.

We had discovered 1 or 2 similar sites, but unfortunately they sometimes worked and sometimes not! So we decided to remove them from our list.

Good timing my friend. I do the manual deleting of tweets in my twitter account recently because it was too old.

I mean too old because my account banned for almost one year and just 5 hours ago twitter admin decided to reactivate or unbanned my account and now my account is alive and kicking.

By the way, is it good using third party or external softwares on twitter? I mean, is this program does not violates the TOS of twitter?

As I mention above I was banned before because of using external program that auto follow people.

I love to here this from you… Thank you for sharing it my friend.

I guess using this app won’t get you banned! This app doesn’t do anything with your followers or against Twitter. I mean it just saves your time deleting tweets. We can delete tweets one by one, instead this tool allows us to delete all tweets at once! It’s a true time saver!

In my case it deleted all the tweets mate. It becomes slow after some time I guess. It happened for me. Please try once again mate and reply.

anna January 22, 2012 at 3:00 AM

Ok can i ask you guys something..when the tweets get deleted does that mean that up there where it says tweets (next to followers and following it says : 0 (zero)or does the number of tweets you have done still stay?

TwitWipe July 28, 2010 at 7:51 AM

Man, get the fukk outta here. I tried using twitwipe and it fucked everything up. It showed “0″ tweets on my profile, but they are not actually deleted. And when I tweet now, it doesn’t count my tweets. Not only that, but they don’t even show up on my timeline.

Don’t listen to this clown a$$ fool, his bullshit program doesn’t work. It just fucks up your account. You’re better off just deleting your twitter and starting over. FUCK TWIT WIPE. It’s a horribly written, shitty program. There is no progam that will really clean up your twitter account.

I can vouch for Twitwipe, indeed it is a good script to use. However I was experiencing some issues with their website at the time I was using it. Hopefully the bugs were fixed. Great find by the way.

They won’t be deleted I think or perhaps it takes time for Twitter to update their profiles.

This should be basic functionality in Twitter and it should also be possible to block/delete tweets by others with @yourusername in it. I’m quiting Twitter. People sometimes forget everybody can read whatever they write. It can be very embarrassing when a friend drops a private line which is then read by i.e. customers or business associates. Deleting tweets is next to impossible. All those tools like Twitwipe work so-so. If they work at all. I’ve had it.

Hi, here’s an updated entry http://www.techoclock.com/how-to-delete-all-tweets

Well yes, Twitter needs to improve its privacy controls. It’s all messed up now.

Hei!

We are currently working on creating the best way for doing that. As a project of a #garage48 (http://garage48.org/blogger/projects-in-progress-at-garage48-riga) we have 48hours to develop it.
Actually it’s just 30 hours left and our design looks pretty bad for now, but we are working on it and if you have anything that you would like to have in that kind of service, you have the best possibility to expres yourself and have a tool that you actually would like to use.

Our common plan is to allow users to delete:
- tweets
- mentions
- retweets
.. that are:
- public
- privat
- older than n days (user will be able to turn on automatic tweet deleting)
- created from dd/mm/yyyy to dd/mm/yyy
- created at user specified period of a time (for example 22:00- 03.00 aka drunk tweets :) )

Sooo…. your ideas ar welcome! follow @tweetdeleter for more updates.

NB. We are looking for web designer to join our team.
befenits: becoming a co-founder of tweetdeleter.com
when? – ASAP! (we could manage it throught the web) :)

All the best,
tweetdeleters

Hey,
Waiting for your site to go live. Can you email me once your site is up? I will follow you, but just in case I forget can you remind me? I can review it on my blog! :)
Waiting for the launch!

Rihards November 20, 2011 at 2:30 AM

Thanks!
For sure – we will keep you updated! 15more hours and we will go live!

By the way, why do you have the latest comments at the bottom of the page? Wouldn’t it be easier to have them on top? :)

Reply

Saksham Talwar November 21, 2011 at 5:54 PM

Rihards, nice suggestion. I think I should work on it. Just emailed my designer. Lets see if it’s possible with Thesis :)

So I guess now your site is live?

Reply

Rihards November 21, 2011 at 6:56 PM

heh,thanks! :)
I think that changing order of main posts with ‘latest on top’ and leaving comments the same (latest at the bottom, oldest at top) this would feel much more better- just like in facebook :)

Yeah, our Beta is live for now! Those were really great 48hours of work and fun at the garage48.org event. This is what we managed to do. now need to keep going :)

If you need something for your blog, just ask me, i could help you with some projects from this side of world (we are from Latvia, Baltic states). There are great startups going on here – http://www.socmap.com ; http://www.qminderapp.com , http://www.reach.ly, sunnyride.com and more :) just ask

Saksham Talwar November 21, 2011 at 7:25 PM

Just tried Tweet Deleter on my test account and guess what it worked! :)

I tried the above sites! SunnyRide is parked I guess, but the other sites are very good. I like the concept behind Reach.ly! Something good for hotel marketers! I will surely get in touch with you if I need something for my blog. What type of services do you provide? Do you make custom applications?

BTW, I am from Mumbai, India. Nice to connect with you Rihards!
