How do you mass unfollow multiple Twitter accounts?

. 9 min read
🟢
Updated on 29/07/2024: Mass Unfollow is now available on Circleboom! As an official Twitter partner, Circleboom now lets you unfollow multiple people on Twitter (X) easily and safely!

Follow and unfollow is one of the oldest methods used to grow followers on Twitter. You follow a group of people, some of them follow you back, then you unfollow those you originally followed. This way, you maintain your follower-following ratio at the desired level.

I'm talking about unfollowing hundreds, even thousands of accounts here. Of course, this will have some side effects. For example, if we unfollow thousands of accounts in a single day, and many of those accounts unfollow us in return, we end up losing a lot of followers in one day. In that case, this tactic would have no real benefit.

Additionally, unfollowing hundreds or even thousands of accounts at once can be seen as suspicious by X (formerly Twitter) when not done properly.

This kind of activity might be flagged as spammy behavior, which could lead to your profile’s visibility being restricted in the following ways:

That's why it's important to be very cautious when doing mass unfollows on Twitter.

With all this in mind, Circleboom's Twitter unfollow tool stands out as the best option for mass unfollowing on Twitter.

It not only offers the ability to unfollow thousands of accounts with a few clicks, but also ensures your safety by performing the unfollows in intervals that won't trigger Twitter’s penalties. By providing both convenience and security, Circleboom is the ideal choice for managing mass unfollows efficiently.

Different ways to mass unfollow Twitter accounts

I will show you step-by-step how to mass unfollow Twitter accounts on Circleboom. Then, as I want this article to be a comprehensive guide that covers all possible solutions for mass unfollowing, I'll provide you with the other methods.

This is because mass unfollow extensions and other non-verified tools often raise concerns about security. I recommend not trusting every Chrome extension you see online. When you use a tool for mass unfollowing, you give it access to your Twitter account. If the tool isn’t secure, it could potentially do anything with your account.

As for free scripts, many of them simply don’t work, leading to wasted time.

Lastly, if you decide to do mass unfollowing manually on Twitter, as you can imagine, it takes a lot of time. You’d have to go to each profile, click unfollow, and confirm, which would consume an enormous amount of time.

The choice is yours. Analyze all the options and pick the one that’s right for you.

So, you may be wondering who they are! Or, for some reason, you want to follow the brand new created Twitter accounts. For example, you may want to follow the newest accounts about ‘soccer.’


How to Safely Unfollow Twitter Accounts with Circleboom

Circleboom can help you unfollow the right accounts by giving you lists of Twitter accounts:

To unfollow any of these accounts, follow the steps below:

Step #1: Log in to Circleboom Twitter and connect your Twitter account if you haven't already.

You can easily register now if you don't have a Circleboom account.

Step #2: Then, hover on the Friends tab under the left menu.

You can select fake/spam, inactive, overactive, and eggheads from there, depending on the accounts you want to unfollow. You can also list who doesn't follow you back.

Step #3: You can also list all your friends and filter them out with many advanced Circleboom filters.

Let's say you'll go with fakes/spams and inactives.

Step #4: Once selected, Circleboom will list all the relevant accounts on your dashboard.

You can visit each account's Twitter profile and unfollow them there. You might also want to mute or block them.

Twitter / X Mass Unfollow Browser Scripts

Now, I will give you two browser scripts to mass unfollow X/Twitter accounts. I hope they work!

  • Script 1

// Scroll to the bottom of the following list to load all accounts
function scrollToBottom(callback) {
window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);
setTimeout(() => {
if (document.body.scrollHeight !== window.scrollY + window.innerHeight) {
scrollToBottom(callback); // Keep scrolling
} else {
callback(); // When at bottom, execute the callback
}
}, 2000); // Adjust the time to allow page loading
}

// Unfollow users automatically
function unfollowUsers() {
const unfollowButtons = document.querySelectorAll('div[data-testid="unfollow"]');
let count = 0;

// Loop through all the unfollow buttons
unfollowButtons.forEach((button, index) => {
    setTimeout(() => {
        button.click(); // Click the unfollow button
        count++;
        console.log(`Unfollowed ${count} accounts.`);
    }, index * 1500); // Delay each click to avoid Twitter detection
});

console.log(`Unfollowing ${unfollowButtons.length} accounts...`);

}

// Run the scroll first, then unfollow
scrollToBottom(unfollowUsers);


  • Script 2

If you face some problems with this script, you can mass unfollow multiple Twitter / X accounts with Circleboom.

const userField = document.getElementsByClassName("ProfileCard-userFields");
const input = window.prompt("Enter any usernames you want to continue following separated by a space.");
let inputMax = window.prompt("Enter maximum number of seconds to wait between actions. Must be greater than '2'.");
let i = 0;
let t = 0;
let inputFound = [];
let saveNames = input.split(" ");
let rand = Math.round(Math.random() * 10000);
let setMin = 2000;
let setMax = inputMax * 1000;
main();

function main(){
if(inputMax > 2){
randomIntFromInterval(setMin,setMax);
unfollowLoop();
findUsers();
}else{
inputMax = window.prompt("Please enter a number great than 2");
setMax = inputMax * 1000;
main();
}
}

function findUsers(){
if(t < userField.length){
for(u = 0; u < saveNames.length; u++){
if(userField[t].children[1].innerText.includes(saveNames[u])){
inputFound[t] = true;
break;
}else{
inputFound[t] = false;
}
}
t++;
if(t < userField.length){
findUsers();
}
}
}

function randomIntFromInterval(min,max)
{
rand = Math.floor(Math.random()*(max-min+1)+min);
return rand;
}

function unfollowLoop(){
let button = userField[i].previousElementSibling.children[0].children[0].children[0].children[1];
let buttonText = button.innerText;
let stat = userField[i].children[1].children[2];
let follows = "";

if(stat === undefined){
	follows = "";
}else{

	follows = stat.innerText;
}

setTimeout(function(){
	if(follows.includes("Follows you") === false && inputFound[i] === false && buttonText.includes("Following") === true){
		button.click();
    }
	i++;
	if(i < userField.length){
			randomIntFromInterval(setMin,setMax);
			unfollowLoop();
	}else{
		window.alert("Unfollow Script Finished!");
	}
}, rand);

}
