This article explains how to revise your tweets on Twitter by copying the existing tweet, deleting it, and posting a revised version, since Twitter doesn’t have an “edit” feature. The instructions in this guide are for the browser-based version of Twitter on PC; however, these instructions also work on Mac and on the Android and iOS Twitter apps.
How to Delete a Tweet
You can rapidly eliminate an unwanted tweet if you make a typo or do not desire it on your feed anymore. Here’s how:
Visit to your Twitter account and select Profile.
