TwitterClear
- Use TwitterClear to delete all your tweets without deleting your follows/followers.
- TwitterClear will clear up to 100 tweets per hour.
- Re-run it every hour to delete all your tweets.
- It only deletes your tweets (not direct messages or favorites).
- This page is not encrypted. Safeguard your Twitter account by changing your password before and after running TwitterClear.
- Written by Vibol Hou.
Clicking [Clear!] will begin deleting your tweets one at a time.
