Musk-Twitter not for you? Here’s how to say goodbye to the bird app via IrishTimesBiz
That’s not much good to those of us who want our Twitter account nuked within days, but that is the process you have to follow.
Before you take that step though, make sure that you have all the information you want to take with you. If you want to download your Twitter archive – posts, messages and so on – before you cut the cord, you have a couple of options. On the mobile app, go to your profile image and select it. Then tap Settings & Support> Settings & Privacy> Your Account>Download an archive of your data.
On desktop, click “more” on the right hand column, and select Settings & Support>Settings & Privacy>Your Account>Download an Archive of your Data. Once you have that, check what apps are connected to your Twitter account, and in particular what services you have used your Twitter account as a log in. You’ll find that under Settings & Privacy>Security and account access and select Apps & Sessions>Connected Apps. There you’ll find a list of apps that have been connected to your Twitter account, and you should be able to identify the ones that you need to find alternative login credentials for.
To begin the process, select your profile picture, go to Settings and Support>Settings & Privacy>Your Account and select Deactivate your account. From there, you can choose a reactivation period of 30 days or 12 months, after which your account will be permanently deleted.
