This is because you must go through a long list of Twitter posts to reach the old ones. Unfortunately, this is time-consuming and stressful if your profile has thousands of tweets. Despite this, it is an effective method for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">deleting posts from your Twitter account<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how in seven steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Log into your account on the X mobile app or website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap your Twitter profile picture at the top-left corner of the X app and select Profile. Then click the <strong>Profile<\/strong> option on the left sidebar of the desktop interface.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down the page to see a list of your posts from the latest to the oldest. You\u2019ll see 800 recent posts you have published.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Locate the old post you want to delete towards the bottom of the page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the <strong>three-dot<\/strong> icon at the top-right corner.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose the <strong>Delete<\/strong> option. A confirmation message will appear on the screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the red <strong>Delete<\/strong> option again to finalize the process.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ve successfully deleted your old tweet from your X, aka Twitter account. Repeat the process to delete more posts. If you have more than 800 tweets on your Twitter profile, you may not see all your posts. Therefore, you need to search for older posts before tweet deletion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/delete-facebook-3256056_640.jpg\" alt=\"The word \u201cDelete\u201d is in the background of a series of binary codes.\" class=\"wp-image-4429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/delete-facebook-3256056_640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/delete-facebook-3256056_640-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Methods_To_Search_Old_Tweets\"><\/span><strong>2 Methods To Search Old Tweets<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Searching old tweets is a significant step in deleting them from your Twitter timeline. You can do this using different methods from Twitter, aka the X platform. Whatever method you choose will depend on the tweet&#8217;s age and how much you remember it. Let\u2019s look at two methods to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/search-old-tweets-review-old-archived-and-deleted-tweets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">search your old tweets for deletion<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Search_Old_Tweets_With_Twitters_Basic_Search\"><\/span><strong>1. Search Old Tweets With Twitter\u2019s Basic Search<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The built-in search bar on the X, aka Twitter platform, is perfect for finding old tweets. You can easily find your old Twitter posts with the proper parameters and duration. Unfortunately, it only works for finding your most recent 3,200 tweets. Notwithstanding, it is a great feature to find any item on the social platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how it works in two steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tap the <strong>Magnifying glass<\/strong> icon at the bottom of the X app, then tap the <strong>Search bar<\/strong> at the top. Click the <strong>Search bar<\/strong> at the top-right corner of the desktop interface.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter your search query in this format: from:[username] since:start date until:end date.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where \u201c<strong>from\u201d <\/strong>indicates the user whose posts you want to find. In this case, you\u2019ll include your username or your <a href=\"https:\/\/tweeteraser.com\/resources\/how-to-pick-a-good-twitter-handle-everything-to-consider\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter handle<\/a>. <strong>\u201cSince\u201d<\/strong> and \u201c<strong>until\u201d<\/strong> will set your search query\u2019s start and end date. Assuming you wanted to find old posts between May 22, 2012, and September 21, 2012, here\u2019s what to search:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>from:[@your username] since:2012-05-22 until:2012-09-21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The system will bring up results for your tweets within that period. You can select each to see more about its engagement rate and perform further actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Search_Old_Tweets_With_Twitters_Advanced_Search\"><\/span><strong>2. Search Old Tweets With Twitter\u2019s Advanced Search<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/features\/delete-old-tweets-by-date\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter\u2019s advanced search function<\/a> is a step further from the basic function. It allows you to use a combination of parameters to filter search results. You can easily search old tweets by account, date, and keywords. It also allows you to search tweets beyond the 3,200 limit. However, the advanced search option only works on the X website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to use it in five steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to your account on the X website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter a simple search query in the search bar and click enter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the <strong>Advanced Search<\/strong> option on the right-hand side when your search results appear. A dialog box containing various search parameters will appear on the screen. Alternatively, you can go directly to the advanced search page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter the search item according to each parameter on the page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click <strong>Search<\/strong> at the top of the dialog box.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The results will automatically appear on the screen. You may not remember much about the tweet you want to find since it is old. However, you should enter a date duration and your username to help the system narrow it down. After locating your old tweets, use the default function to delete as much as you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/pexels-padrinan-2882553-2.jpg\" alt=\"White keyboard buttons used to spell \u201cDelete\u201d on a pink background\" class=\"wp-image-4430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/pexels-padrinan-2882553-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.tweeteraser.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/pexels-padrinan-2882553-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Delete_All_Old_Tweets\"><\/span><strong>How To Delete All Old Tweets<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can repeat the tweet deletion process to remove all your old posts.

Your<strong> <\/strong>archive contains your entire Twitter history from the first day. Uploading your archive to these tools will give them access to your tweet history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You only need to <a href=\"https:\/\/tweeteraser.com\/resources\/download-twitter-archive-saving-all-your-twitter-data\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">download a copy of your Twitter archive<\/a> for this. This will give you an archive file containing your entire Twitter history. You can also view your old tweets in this file.
