Old tweet cleanup

Find and delete your old tweets
- by date, in bulk.

DeleteTweets helps you find old tweets by date range and delete them in bulk. Clean one year, one month or one topic while protecting posts you still want to keep.

  • Delete tweets before a year or inside a custom date window.
  • Combine date filters with keywords and engagement thresholds.
  • Use archive import for history older than the recent timeline window.

For old posts that no longer fit

People often clean old tweets before job searches, public launches or personal resets. Date filters make the cleanup more precise than wiping everything.

Clean up before a job search

Remove old posts from a period that no longer represents you.

Remove a controversial period

Target one month, year or campaign without touching newer posts.

Start fresh on X

Use archive import when older tweets are beyond the recent timeline.

Page FAQ

Delete old tweets FAQ

Answers for finding and removing older X history.

How do I find old tweets?

Use a date range in DeleteTweets, or import your official X archive for older history.

How far back can I delete?

Recent deletion depends on what X exposes. Archive mode is for older history beyond that recent window.

Can I delete tweets before a year?

Yes. Set the date range before that year, add exceptions if needed, and run the cleanup.

Can I keep recent tweets?

Yes. Use the date range so only older posts match the deletion run.
