Guide To Remove Ads on the Desktop Browser<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How do I block ads on Twitter? The guide below explains the process of removing ads when you go to X from your desktop browser:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note<\/strong>: The following guide is for using uBlock Origin with Google Chrome. This extension also works with Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Opera, and other Chromium browsers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open a new tab in your desktop browser and visit this link \u2014 <strong>ublockorigin.com<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Left-click the <strong>Get uBlock Origin<\/strong> button to visit the ad-blockers page in the Chrome Web Store.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Click the <strong>Add to Chrome<\/strong> button. A popup will explain what the extension can do. Select <strong>Add Extension<\/strong> to integrate this service with your desktop browser.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Press the <strong>Extension<\/strong> button on your desktop browser. Its icon looks like a single puzzle piece and is next to the browser\u2019s address bar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Left-click the <strong>Pin<\/strong> icon next to uBlock Origin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open a new browser tab, go to X, and sign in to your profile.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You won\u2019t see any ads in your timeline. If this doesn\u2019t work on Google Chrome, you should use a different browser, such as Mozilla Firefox or Brave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/2-10.jpg\" alt=\"Google Chrome on a smartphone when a user launches the app for the first time.\" class=\"wp-image-4107\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/2-10.jpg 640w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/2-10-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Block_Ads_on_Twitter_App_Try_These_Three_Solutions\"><\/span>How To Block Ads on Twitter App: Try These Three Solutions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are three guides that show you how to block ads on Twitter app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Subscribe to X Premium or Premium+<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to go through the official route, becoming an <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/premium\/\">X Premium<\/a> subscriber is the only solution. This subscription service gives several features, including fewer ads in your feeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mid-tier package, i.e., Premium, shows only half the ads that appear in a non-subscriber\u2019s feed. With Premium+, there are no ads in the <strong>For You<\/strong> and <strong>Following<\/strong> timeline. However, this won\u2019t stop advertisements from appearing in the following areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>When you go through a user\u2019s profile<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When you scroll through a post\u2019s reply section<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Promotional events on the <strong>Explore<\/strong> page<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Amplify Pre-Roll<\/strong> and <strong>Sponsorship<\/strong> ads<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Trend takeover ads in the <strong>What\u2019s<\/strong><strong>Happening<\/strong> card and <strong>Explore<\/strong> page<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, X Basic, the lowest subscription tier, does not reduce the ads you see in your timeline. Here\u2019s how to reduce promotional content by becoming an X Premium subscriber:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sign in to your X account on your desktop browser or mobile app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Left-click <strong>Premium<\/strong> in the left-sided quick navigation panel on the desktop browser. If you\u2019re using the app, tap the <strong>profile picture<\/strong> button on the top left and select <strong>Premium<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Premium<\/strong> or <strong>Premium+<\/strong> and left-click the <strong>Select &amp; Pay<\/strong> button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add your payment details and follow all the steps to complete the transaction.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you refresh your feed, you will see fewer ads on the mobile app. This method works for all devices, including Android and iOS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Install Firefox Mobile App on Your Android Device and Use It To Visit X<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Several ad-blocker apps can prevent ads in mobile apps. However, they don\u2019t seem to work well when you use the official Twitter app. For this reason, you should use a mobile browser like Mozilla Firefox. It supports extensions, which let you install an ad-blocker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to block ads on X via the Firefox mobile browser:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Download Mozilla Firefox on your smartphone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open the mobile browser and complete the setup. You can skip this process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the <strong>three-dot<\/strong> button on the top left corner and select <strong>Extensions<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Look for uBlock Origin and tap the <strong>plus<\/strong> button to add the extension to Firefox. AdGuard AdBlocker is also an excellent extension for removing ads on X.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Press the <strong>Add button<\/strong> when a popup appears on your device.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the <strong>checkmark<\/strong> next to <strong>Allow in Private Browsing<\/strong> if you want to use the ad-blocker in <strong>incognito<\/strong> <strong>mode<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open a new tab and sign in to your X profile.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scroll through the For You and the <strong>Following<\/strong> feeds. Also, check out the comment section and other parts of X. You shouldn\u2019t see any ads in these areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Use the AdGuard Extension on Safari for iOS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The final solution is to use the AdGuard extension for the Safari browser on your iOS device. The guide below explains how to add this extension and block <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/twitter-advertising\/\">Twitter ads<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Find and install AdGuard by Adguard Software Limited from the App Store.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open the extension on your iOS device.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Return to the homepage, tap the <strong>gear<\/strong> icon, and visit your iOS device\u2019s settings page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scroll down, look for Safari, and open its settings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to the <strong>Extensions<\/strong> page, and you\u2019ll see multiple options for AdGuard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open the first AdGuard extension and tap the <strong>Allow Extension<\/strong> button. Repeat this step until you activate all AdGuard extensions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open a new tab, go to X, and sign in to your account.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the <strong>Share<\/strong> button. It is a square with an upward-facing arrow.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find <strong>Add to Home Screen<\/strong> and tap this setting.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enter a name for the website shortcut. You can keep it as the default name, i.e., X.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the <strong>Add<\/strong> button, and the website shortcut will appear on your device\u2019s home screen.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Open the website shortcut to check out what\u2019s happening on X. Although it\u2019s a shortcut, you still have access to all the mobile app\u2019s functionalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/3-11.jpg\" alt=\"Two red buses with advertisements in traffic.\" class=\"wp-image-4108\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/3-11.jpg 640w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/3-11-300x240.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Questions_on_Blocking_Ads_on_X\"><\/span>Common Questions on Blocking Ads on X<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This section addresses common questions about blocking ads on X.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1721724361722\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>How do you turn off ads on Twitter?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>You can turn off ads on Twitter with an X Premium+ subscription.

However, if it offers ad-blocking services, it may stop advertisements from appearing on X.<\/p>\n<p>Your best bet is to use a browser with built-in ad-blocking functions.

You can use the solutions suggested in this article or subscribe to X Premium to remove promotional content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People want to block ads on X because they see too many adverts. Users will also do the same to you if you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Publish too many posts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tweet sales-like content most of the time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Post irrelevant, controversial, or insensitive content<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>X\u2019s algorithm will reduce your content\u2019s visibility if multiple users block your profile. The best way to prevent this is to delete unnecessary tweets from your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TweetDelete offers several ways to easily remove posts you don\u2019t want people to associate with your profile. For instance, the auto-delete task looks for specific tweets using the phrases, hashtags, and date ranges you provide. This automated feature will scan and delete the right tweets periodically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can go for the <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/delete-multiple-tweets\/\">mass-delete tweets<\/a> feature to remove any number of posts.
