That said, leaving the platform very easy, even if it takes time. The way Twitter handles account deletion is by starting a deactivation period where you can restore your account within 30 days of the process starting. After this period, your Twitter account will be completely deleted without the possibility of retrieving it.

How to get started:

  1. On your Android device, open the Twitter app.
  2. Tap your profile picture in the upper left corner.
  3. Scroll down and press Settings and privacy.
  4. Hit Your account.
  5. At the bottom there will be an option called Disable account. Press it.
  6. Read the conditions for deactivation carefully, as there is some important information there. Press after reading Disable.

  3. From there, hit Settings and privacy.
  4. Immediately you should see an option across the screen called Disable your account. Click on it.
  5. Read the conditions for deactivation carefully, as there is some important information there. Press after reading Disable.
