At one point, I was replying to everything on Twitter.
News stories, celebrity drama, trending hashtags — you name it, I had a take. I replied to influencers, journalists, brands, friends, even strangers in random threads.
It felt like I needed to be part of every conversation. And honestly, that’s part of what makes Twitter fun. But over time, that habit left a trail — a messy one.
As I scrolled through my timeline years later, I saw replies I barely remembered writing. Some were immature. Some felt impulsive. Some didn’t represent the person I am today.
That’s when I knew: It was time to clean up.
And I decided to start with my old Twitter replies.
Why Delete Old Twitter Replies?
Replies can seem harmless in the moment. But they stick around — and in some cases, they stick out. You may not realize how much they shape your online identity until you actually review them.
Here’s why I think deleting old replies is worth it:
- Some express opinions you no longer agree with
- Some are tied to outdated conversations or irrelevant drama
- Some were written emotionally and didn’t age well
- Some are just noise that clutters your profile
If you’re trying to build a cleaner, more intentional online presence, your replies deserve just as much attention as your tweets.
How to Delete Twitter Replies on iPhone (Manually)
Twitter doesn’t make it easy — but it is possible to delete replies manually on the iPhone app.
Here’s how you do it:
- Open the Twitter (X) app on your iPhone.
- Tap your profile photo in the top-left to access your profile.
- Scroll through your tweets and look for ones labeled “In reply to...”
- When you find one, tap the three dots (•••) in the top-right of the tweet.
- Choose “Delete”, and confirm.
Done.
But here's the problem — you have to find them manually, one by one.
There’s no “Replies” tab. No filter. No bulk action. No way to just “See all my replies.”
If you’ve tweeted a lot over the years (and especially if you were as reply-happy as I was), that means scrolling… and scrolling… and scrolling.
It's slow, frustrating, and borderline impossible on mobile.
So I Found a Smarter Way: Circleboom
Eventually, I gave up on manual deletion and started looking for something that could actually get the job done — efficiently and safely.
That’s when I found Circleboom.
I’d already heard about it from other creators, but I didn’t realize just how useful it was until I tried it for myself.
Circleboom is an official enterprise partner of X, so it's fully legit — secure, trusted, and designed specifically for Twitter.
And most importantly for me:
It works perfectly on iPhone.
No need for a laptop. No complicated downloads. Just an app that actually does what the Twitter mobile app can’t.
Why Circleboom is the Best Way to Delete Replies on Twitter
Circleboom isn’t just a tweet deleter — it’s a full Twitter management platform.
And when it comes to cleaning up replies, it’s miles ahead of anything else I’ve tried.
Here’s what makes it different:
✅ You can filter specifically for replies
✅ You can search by keyword, username, hashtag, or language
✅ You can set a date range, like “only show replies before 2022”
✅ You can filter by engagement (likes, replies, retweets, impressions)
✅ You can delete hundreds of replies at once — safely, without spamming or risking your account
Basically, Circleboom gives you total control over your Twitter cleanup — and it’s all optimized for mobile use.
How to Delete Twitter Replies on iPhone with Circleboom (Step-by-Step)
If you’re ready to clean up your old replies, here’s exactly how to do it from your iPhone using Circleboom:
Step #1: Download the Circleboom App
Go to the App Store and download Circleboom for Twitter. It’s lightweight and built for iPhone users like us.
Once you're inside the app, navigate to the bottom menu and tap the “MY TWEETS” icon (bottom right corner with the Twitter bird). This will open the tweet management panel.
Step #2: Tap “Delete My Last Tweets”
From the list of options, select “Delete My Last Tweets.”
This feature allows you to delete your most recent 3,200 tweets without needing to upload your Twitter archive.
✨ Tip: If you want to delete older tweets beyond the 3,200 limit, you can use the “Delete All Tweets” option by uploading your archive.
Step #3: Review Your Tweets
After selecting the delete option, Circleboom will list your recent tweets. You’ll see your content, including tweet text, timestamps, and engagement metrics (likes, replies, retweets).
Step #4: Tap “Filter Options”
This is the magic part.
Tap “Filter Options” to open up advanced filtering tools.
- Toggle OFF: Posts & Quotes
- Toggle OFF: Reposts (retweets)
- Toggle ON: Replies
You can also:
- Filter by keywords or usernames
- Select a language
- Choose a date range
- Target only low-engagement replies (e.g. replies with 0 likes)
Step #5: Tap “Delete All Tweets”
Once you’ve applied your filters (or chosen not to), tap the red “Delete All Tweets” button at the top right.
Step #6: Confirm the Deletion
A confirmation pop-up will appear asking:
“Do you want to delete all tweets on your account?
Likes, RTs and Tweets are not recoverable once processed!”
Tap Delete to finalize the process.
Final Thoughts
I didn’t realize how many old replies I had until I looked — and I didn’t realize how many I regretted until I deleted them.
Now, my Twitter profile is a lot cleaner.
No more clutter. No more awkward replies from years ago. Just a timeline that feels more like me.
👉 If you’re someone who manages Twitter from your iPhone, I highly recommend giving Circleboom a try.
It’s the only tool I trust for this kind of cleanup — and it saved me hours of frustration.
Sometimes, a fresh start is just a few taps away.
