Twitter: Should You Do It?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When talking about how to change your age on Twitter, you\u2019ll want to know why you should do it. What do you stand to benefit as an active user by sharing your birthdate with the platform? Below are three reasons highlighting why changing your age is a good idea:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>You want to join Twitter\u2019s Ad Revenue Sharing program<\/strong>: If you\u2019re getting 5 million impressions organically from all your posts, it\u2019s a good idea to apply for revenue sharing. However, this is only one of the many requirements to be eligible. You also need to be at least 18 years, according to X\u2019s Creator Monetization Standards. Sometimes, it\u2019s possible to get away without changing your age. However, the platform can stop you from participating in the program.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>You don\u2019t like seeing X\u2019s sensitive media warning on several posts<\/strong>: The platform doesn\u2019t allow any account without a birthdate to view sensitive content. This is especially true for adult material like sexual behavior and nudity. The only way to deactivate the sensitive warning on posts is to provide your date of birth.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>You\u2019re looking to start a subscription on X, formerly Twitter: <\/strong>Twitter rebranded Super Follower to subscriptions after Elon Musk became the owner. It is an attractive proposition as you can earn 97% of your revenue. Even if you cross the $50,000 threshold, you still get 80% from your subscriptions. However, one of the requirements to start a subscription is to be at least 18 years. The only way to show this is to include your birthdate in your profile.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Change_Age_on_Twitter_for_the_Web\"><\/span>How To Change Age on Twitter for the Web?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you use Twitter for the web, changing your age won\u2019t take more than five minutes. Once you share this information, the platform uses this data to show you relevant ads. Also, you\u2019ll start seeing other types of content in your timeline. Here\u2019s how to change age on Twitter for the web:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You must log in to your Twitter account and go to your profile page. Click the <strong>Profile <\/strong>icon on the quick navigation bar. It is on the left side of your laptop or desktop screen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Under your cover photo, you\u2019ll find the <strong>Edit Profile<\/strong> button. Click it to open your account information page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next to the <strong>Birth Date<\/strong> option, there\u2019s an <strong>Edit <\/strong>button.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Several new settings will appear on this page. Under <strong>Birth Date<\/strong>, you\u2019ll see month, date and year. Add your date of birth.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select <strong>Save <\/strong>after you complete adding your birth date.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, when you check your profile page, you\u2019ll see your date of birth along with when you joined X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-id=\"717\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/christin-hume-Hcfwew744z4-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"An individual opening Twitter on their laptop to update their age.\" class=\"wp-image-717\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/christin-hume-Hcfwew744z4-unsplash.jpg 640w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/christin-hume-Hcfwew744z4-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Change_Your_Age_on_Twitter_for_Android_and_iOS\"><\/span>How To Change Your Age on Twitter for Android and iOS?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know you could only show your birthday on Twitter in 2015? It really goes to show how different the platform was back in the day. If you have an Android or iOS device, this guide explains how to change your age on Twitter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Tap the icon with your profile photo on the Twitter app. This will open the quick navigation menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the first option in this menu, i.e., <strong>Profile<\/strong>. The app will take you to your profile page. Or, tap on your profile photo again to go to the same page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap <strong>Edit Profile<\/strong>, which you\u2019ll find under your account\u2019s cover photo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the <strong>Edit Profile<\/strong> page, tap the <strong>Birth Date<\/strong> section.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can change your age on this page. Tap <strong>Continue <\/strong>to make sure the social media network registers the edit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tap <strong>Save, <\/strong>and the platform will display your age.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_You_Change_the_Visibility_or_Remove_Your_Birthdate_via_Settings_for_Twitter\"><\/span>Can You Change the Visibility or Remove Your Birthdate via Settings for Twitter?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you change your birth date after January 2022, there is a change in the visibility of this data. Now, the platform only makes it visible to you by default. However, some users may want to change these <a href=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/settings-for-twitter-adjustments-for-a-perfect-account\/\">settings for Twitter<\/a> according to their preferences. The guide below provides in-depth instructions on how to change your age on Twitter for visibility or remove it entirely:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open your Twitter profile page.

If you want to delete this information, select <strong>Remove Birth Date<\/strong>. In this situation, the platform will give you a warning pop-up about what will happen. Select <strong>Remove <\/strong>to delete your birthdate.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to know more about these birthday visibility settings, refer to this section:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Only You<\/strong>: The default setting ensures no one else but you can view your birth date.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>You Follow Each Other<\/strong>: It is a mutual setting where you and the user must follow each other to see the birthdate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>People You Follow: <\/strong>This allows only users in your Following list to look at your date of birth.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Your Followers<\/strong>: If the user belongs to your follower list, they can view your birthdate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Public<\/strong>: Anyone can see your date of birth, even if they don\u2019t have a Twitter, now X, account.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"621\" data-id=\"718\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/charlesdeluvio-FdDkfYFHqe4-unsplash-1.jpg\" alt=\"A user trying to change their birthday visibility settings from their iPhone.\" class=\"wp-image-718\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/charlesdeluvio-FdDkfYFHqe4-unsplash-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/charlesdeluvio-FdDkfYFHqe4-unsplash-1-300x291.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Change_Your_Age_if_Youre_Under_18\"><\/span>How To Change Your Age if You\u2019re Under 18?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although Twitter doesn\u2019t allow users below 13 to join the platform, children still manage to evade this restriction. It\u2019s pretty simple; you can skip sharing your birthdate while creating your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re above the minimum age limit, you want your account to depict who you are. Or, you\u2019re a parent who wants to ensure your child can use X without seeing posts with sensitive content. Suppose you or your child were on Twitter or X before turning 18. What happens if you follow the how to change your age on Twitter guide and alter it to 18?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Twitter will lock you out of your account immediately. This is because of the previous violation, i.e., using the platform when you\u2019re under 13.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can restore access to your account. However, the platform removes posts, direct messages, likes, lists, and moments. It only affects anything you publish or saves when you\u2019re under 13\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The social media network gives you up to 30 days to reactivate your Twitter account. After this period, the platform will prevent you from using your account permanently.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The platform will deactivate data sharing and personalization settings.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It won\u2019t take more than 72 hours to start the process of restoring access. Also, your following and follower statistics can take up to 24 hours to return to their original values.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_the_Age_Restrictions_on_Twitter_for_Users_Below_the_Legal_Age\"><\/span>What Are the Age Restrictions on Twitter for Users Below the Legal Age?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a user or parent, you\u2019ll want to know what are the age restrictions on Twitter, now X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For starters, anyone below the legal age can\u2019t view sensitive content. Every post with adult material will come with an unremovable warning message. They cannot change this setting in the menu to remove this warning message.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The birthdate won\u2019t be visible if the user is under 18. The platform, by default, sets the visibility of the date of birth to \u2018<strong>Only You<\/strong>.\u2019 This means only the author or owner of the account can see it. Also, the user won\u2019t be able to change this setting until they turn 18.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Twitter prevents certain types of ads from targeting users below the legal age. This includes products like: <br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fireworks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Drugs and drug-related paraphernalia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weight loss supplements, services and products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guns or anything related to it<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alcohol and all other content relevant to these types of beverages<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adult material like sexual services and products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tanning services that use ultraviolet<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These restrictions will apply when you follow how to change your age on Twitter guide to below the legal age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Change_Age_Restrictions_on_Twitter_Getting_Parental_Consent\"><\/span>How To Change Age Restrictions on Twitter: Getting Parental Consent<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Twitter\u2019s blanket approach to dealing with users below the legal age can seem severe. However, the platform has to go this route to ensure it doesn\u2019t violate any laws. When you don\u2019t meet the social media network\u2019s age conditions, it will lock you out. This section explains how to change age restrictions on Twitter via parental consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll need a guardian or parent to step in and confirm your age. As this process takes some time, completing it as soon as possible is better. Below is what you\u2019ve to do once Twitter locks the account because the user is below the legal age:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You need to fill out the Parental Consent form to unlock the account. This is because some regions require parental consent to process user data of people below the legal age.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You need to share the following information in the form:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Full name of the parent\/guardian.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Full name of the child.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The username of the account below the legal age.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The email address Twitter has to use to get in touch with you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A valid government ID, like a passport, driver\u2019s license, and birth certificate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A legal document showing that you\u2019re the parent or guardian, like a birth certificate or power of attorney.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You have to confirm that you are responsible for your child. Also, you\u2019ve to accept the social media network\u2019s terms and conditions.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After you submit the form, wait until X\/Twitter contacts you. It may require additional documents to confirm your identity and whether you\u2019re the parent or guardian of the user. Your child can use their account once the platform clears your form. The social media network can take up to 60 days to process the form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-id=\"719\" src=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-pixabay-163097-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"A Twitter user cannot use their account as they are below the legal age.\" class=\"wp-image-719\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-pixabay-163097-1-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/tweetdelete.net\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/pexels-pixabay-163097-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Change_Age_on_Twitter_for_Business\"><\/span>How To Change Age on Twitter for Business?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a professional brand account, you want to know how to change your age on Twitter. This is a great way to let users know when you started your business. However, it can also cause a lot of problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, let\u2019s say your company is a startup and an active market player for five years. However, when you change the birthdate to reflect this, the platform may assume you\u2019re below the legal age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, it can lock you out of your account, which can cause many issues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For starters, if you use your X or Twitter profile to provide customer support, you won\u2019t be able to do this. Imagine how it will reflect on your brand\u2019s image when customers reach out to you but you don\u2019t respond.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As you can\u2019t use your account, you won\u2019t be able to leave a post about this issue.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Also, the platform won\u2019t show your profile to other users. In other words, your account will disappear completely, even from a Twitter search. Any posts that other people quote will also cease to exist.
