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 is the only tool allowing a mass unfollow feature. You can easily and quickly unfollow multiple people on Twitter (X) with one click!

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). This kind of activity might be flagged as spam behavior, which could lead to your profile’s visibility being restricted (see: Twitter Shadowban), or even having your account suspended. That's why it's important to be very cautious when doing mass unfollows on Twitter.

With all this in mind, Circleboom stands out as the best option for mass unfollowing. It not only offers the ability to unfollow thousands of accounts with just one click, 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.

Do you need to mass unfollow people on Twitter? Do it with Circleboom now! ⬇️

I will show you step-by-step how to do mass unfollow on Circleboom. But before that, I want this article to be a comprehensive guide that covers all possible solutions for mass unfollowing. The first option is using existing mass unfollow extensions and tools. The second is using free browser scripts. And finally, the last option is doing mass unfollowing directly on Twitter.

Mass unfollow extensions and other 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.

Twitter / X Mass Unfollow Browser Scripts

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

Script 1

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

// 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);

}
