This is because the platform doesn\u2019t let users delete their profiles immediately. Instead, you need to deactivate your account, which is the first step in deleting your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to wait out the 30-day deactivation period to erase your profile.

Keep a Copy of Your Twitter Archive or X Data File<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that once the platform deletes your Twitter profile, you cannot go back. All the <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/twitter-dms-a-ticket-to-having-private-conversations\/\">direct messages (DMs)<\/a>, tweets, lists, uploaded media files, and everything else will no longer exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What if you want to look back at your time on this platform? Or do you want to preserve a photo or video you received from a close friend on Twitter? Thankfully, you can keep a copy of your Twitter activities and delete your profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The solution is to access your <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/twitter-archive-every-detail-about-your-data\/\">Twitter Archive<\/a>, now X Data, file. It contains everything you did on this social network.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to access your X Data file:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Access your X account on a desktop browser and left-click the <strong>More<\/strong> button on the side panel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Settings and Privacy<\/strong> and go to the <strong>Your Account<\/strong> page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Left-click the <strong>Download An Archive Of Your Data<\/strong> button and re-enter your X password.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"746\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5-1024x746.png\" alt=\"TweetDelete\u2019s screenshot of Twitter\u2019s Download An Archive Of Your Data page.\" class=\"wp-image-4878\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5-1024x746.png 1024w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5-300x219.png 300w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5-768x559.png 768w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/5.png 1300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. X sends a code to the registered email address or phone number. Enter this code to access the <strong>Download An Archive Of Your Data<\/strong> page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Left-click the <strong>Request Archive<\/strong> button in the X Data section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1300\" height=\"947\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/6-1024x746.png\" alt=\"TweetDelete\u2019s screenshot of Twitter\u2019s page to download the X Data file.\" class=\"wp-image-4879\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/6-1024x746.png 1024w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/6-300x219.png 300w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/6-768x559.png 768w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/6.png 1300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1300px) 100vw, 1300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wait at least 24 hours, as Twitter needs time to prepare this file. Once it is ready, it sends a notification to your device and the registered email ID. After you receive the alert, visit the same page again. You\u2019ll see the <strong>Download Archive<\/strong> button instead of <strong>Request Archive<\/strong>. Click this button to save the X Data file to your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Cancel Your X Subscriptions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have any active subscriptions on Twitter? For instance, if you have an <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/x-premium-how-to-unlock-a-new-experience-on-twitter\/\">X Premium<\/a> subscription, you must cancel it before deactivating your account. The platform will only cancel the subscription if you buy it from <strong>x.com<\/strong> or <strong>twitter.com<\/strong>. If you purchased the plans from your Android or iPhone, they will be active even after you erase your profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll also need to review <a href=\"https:\/\/help.x.com\/en\/using-x\/subscriptions-creator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Subscriptions for creators<\/a>, i.e., subscriptions with specific Twitter users on the platform.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to cancel them on your device:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Android<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open the Google Play Store.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap your profile picture button on the top right corner of your smartphone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Payments &amp; Subscriptions<\/strong> and open the <strong>Subscriptions<\/strong> page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find the X Premium or Subscriptions and tap it to open the <strong>Manage Subscription<\/strong> page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap the <strong>Cancel Subscription<\/strong> button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Play Store may ask you why you\u2019re canceling the plan. Select an appropriate reason, tap <strong>Continue<\/strong>, and select <strong>Cancel Subscription<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>iOS<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go to the App Store on your iPhone and tap the circle with your profile picture. You\u2019ll find this button on the top right corner of your screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap <strong>Subscriptions<\/strong> to see a list of all the active and inactive subscriptions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select X from this list and tap the <strong>Cancel<\/strong> <strong>Subscription<\/strong> button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap <strong>Confirm<\/strong> when the <strong>Confirm<\/strong><strong>Cancellation<\/strong> popup appears on your device.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Delete All Connected Apps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you connect a third-party app to your Twitter account? If yes, you must revoke its permissions before you erase your profile. These apps can prevent you from deactivating your account. Follow these simple steps to remove third-party X apps from your profile:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open X on a desktop browser or mobile app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to X\u2019s settings page by following these device-specific instructions:\n<ol style=\"list-style-type:lower-alpha\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Desktop browser<\/strong>: Left-click <strong>More<\/strong> from the left-sided quick navigation panel and select <strong>Settings and Privacy<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mobile app<\/strong>: Tap the profile picture to open the slide-out menu, select <strong>Settings &amp; Support<\/strong>, and open <strong>Settings and Privacy<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Left-click <strong>SecurityandAccountAccess<\/strong> and open the <strong>AppsandSessions<\/strong> page.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"746\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/7-1024x746.png\" alt=\"TweetDelete\u2019s screenshot of Twitter\u2019s Apps and Sessions page.\" class=\"wp-image-4880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/7-1024x746.png 1024w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/7-300x219.png 300w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/7-768x559.png 768w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/7.png 1300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4.
