There are plenty of reasons why people might want to clean-up their old retweets and tweets<\/strong>. If you\u2019re a college graduate <\/strong>and looking for a new job, you might want to erase the trace of your old, embarrassing tweets and retweets from your new employer. If you\u2019re a Twitter addict<\/strong>, you might have posted a lot of personal information earlier that you may want to delete to protect your privacy <\/strong>and confidentiality. There are so many other reasons, and legitimate <\/strong>ones. Unfortunately, Twitter doesn\u2019t have an in-house functionality to automatically erase older tweets\/ retweets for you.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Use Easy Tweet Deleter to quickly delete your past tweets online<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This software is a harbinger of strong security principles<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve only a handful of tweets\/ retweets, it is possible to manually locate <\/strong>and delete them one by one. You can employ Twitter\u2019s powerful Search <\/strong>functionality to automatically find right tweets for you using different patterns. If you\u2019ve several thousand tweets\/ retweets, it is nearly impossible to delete them one by one. Easy Tweet Deleter <\/strong>is the most safest and spam-free approach to accomplish this task. Read on…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Use Different Search Queries To Manually Find & Delete Older Tweets\/ Retweets<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Twitter allows you to load specific tweets based on various search criteria- <\/strong>such as tweets containing a specific keyword<\/strong>, tweets posted in a time duration<\/strong>, tweets replying <\/strong>and mentioning <\/strong>an individual, tweets published in a specific language<\/strong>. Moreover, you can search for your retweets (RTs) <\/strong>by a keyword\/ text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Use Twitter Search?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Open your Twitter Profile<\/strong> from your computer.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Locate the Search <\/strong>box on the upper right corner.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3. Type your search query.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I. Search For Your Retweets (RTs) By Keyword<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Use the following syntax to search your Twitter timeline for only retweets <\/strong>containing a word\/ letter.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

from:<your account id> filter:nativeretweets [<search text>]<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following example will search for all retweets (RTs) containing the word crocodile<\/strong>.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

from:wecatlovers filter:nativeretweets [crocodile]<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

II. Search Your Tweets By Keyword<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can use the following syntax to search for specific tweets by a keyword or specific text pattern.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<search text> from:<your account id><\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To load all of your tweets that contain a specific keyword such as cat, use the following search query. This does NOT load any Retweets (RTs).
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

cat from:wecatlovers<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This will load up all relevant results and allow you to manually delete the tweets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

II. Search Tweets By Time Duration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can employ Twitter Search <\/strong>to find tweets that you posted in a specific time period.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Syntax:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

from:<your account id> since:<beginning date yyyy-mm-dd> until:<end date yyyy-mm-dd><\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the following example, we\u2019ll search for tweets starting from 1st January, 2019 until 30th January, 2019.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

from:wecatlovers since:2019-01-01 until:2019-01-30<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

III. Search Your Replies To An Individual<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you need to delete your replies sent to a specific individual on Twitter, use the following search filter:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to:<other account name> from:<your account id><\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Example: In this example, we\u2019ll search for only those replies you sent to an account named RealGrumpyCat.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to:RealGrumpyCat from:wecatlovers<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

IV. Search Your Tweets Mentioning\/ Tagging An Individual<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve tagged other individuals on Twitter, you can search for such tweets using the following search query:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(<other account>) from:<your account id><\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(simonscat) from:wecatlovers<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

V. Search Your Tweets By Language<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can search for your tweets published in a specific language. Here\u2019s the syntax:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

lang:<your language code> from:<your account id><\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this example, we will load all tweets published in French:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

lang:fr from:wecatlovers<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Please refer this Twitter documentation<\/a>.for a brief list of some major world language codes. Please note that this is not a complete list. If your language code is not mentioned, please Google it. For example: portuguese language code<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
