Delete Tweets on iPhone — XWipe Is Now an iOS App

XWipe is on the App Store. You can now clear old posts from your phone, on the bus, without opening a laptop — get it here.

What the app does

Two ways to delete. Tap-select individual posts if you know exactly which 2017 opinion is the problem, or run a bulk job filtered by date range and keyword if you'd rather not read any of it again.

It covers posts, likes, reposts, bookmarks, and accounts you follow.

One thing it doesn't do: your deep archive. X's API only hands any tool your most recent ~3,200 items per type. Going further back needs your X archive .zip, and uploading a multi-gigabyte file is a desktop job — do that part on getxwipe.com. The app tells you when you've hit that wall instead of quietly stopping.

Same account, same credits

Sign in with X and you're in the account you already have. Credits bought on the web work in the app. Credits bought in the app work on the web.

One credit deletes one item. Credits never expire, and nothing renews — in-app it's $3.99 for 100 credits, or $48.99 for 2,500 if you're wiping the lot. Full breakdown in the pricing section.

Deletion happens on our servers, not your phone

Start a job, lock your phone, go to lunch. The queue runs on XWipe's servers, so nothing stalls when the app closes or your signal drops.

That's mostly about X's rate limit: roughly 50 deletions every 15 minutes, per account, for every tool that touches the API. About 5 hours for 1,000 posts. No app can beat it. An app that deletes on-device just makes you sit and watch it.

Privacy: the app never sees your password

Sign-in goes through X's own OAuth screen. XWipe never receives, never asks for, and never stores your X password. Your access tokens are encrypted at rest, and we keep post IDs to run the job — not the content of your posts.

Revoke access from X's settings whenever you like and the app goes dark.

How to start

  1. Install XWipe from the App Store.
  2. Tap Sign in with X and approve on X's screen.
  3. Pick a type, set a date range or keyword, start the job. Watch the counter or close the app.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the iPhone app need a separate subscription?+

No. There's no subscription in the app. You buy credits — $3.99 for 100, $48.99 for 2,500 — and they sit on your account until you use them.

I already paid on the website. Do I pay again?+

No. It's one account and one credit balance. Sign in with the same X handle and your balance is there.

Can the app delete tweets from 2013?+

Only if they're inside your most recent ~3,200 posts. Older than that, upload your X archive on a computer.

My job says 0 deleted. Is it broken?+

Usually it's the rate limit or an expired X connection, not a bug. See the Quick Delete troubleshooting guide.

For a full-history wipe see the one-time wipe guide, and if a job reports zero deletions, start with Quick Delete not working.
