How To Change Privacy Settings On Twitter – Complete Gudie

Some tweets are blocked by Twitter because they include “potentially sensitive information,” which includes while you are retweeting them. This warning may be turned off on any device, including iPhones and iPads. While not making your account private, you may also turn off the sensitive material alerts that appear when you tweet.

What Is “Sensitive Content?”

“Potentially sensitive material… such as violence or nudity,” according to Twitter, is the reason for this warning label.

To put it simply, Twitter is a more free-wheeling social network than Facebook, where everything goes. The social media platform’s sensitive media policy prohibits “excessively graphic” media, “media portraying sexual violence,” and unlawful material, but otherwise allows practically everything.

Tweets containing potentially sensitive content are automatically restricted by default with a warning such as “This media may include sensitive material,” “This profile may contain potentially sensitive content,” or “The following media contains potentially sensitive information.”

For those who don’t already have a Twitter account, you’ll need to establish one and sign in before making any changes.

How to Skip the “Sensitive Content” Warning

It is possible to turn off the Sensitive Content warning in Twitter’s privacy settings. Similarly, same settings can be found in the same location in the Twitter Android app; however, they are not accessible in the Twitter iPhone and iPad apps. If you make the adjustment on the web, the Twitter iPhone and iPad applications, on the other hand, will display sensitive material without providing you with any warnings.

• Visit the Twitter website and click the “More” button, which is symbolised by three dots in a circle, located on the left side of the screen. This will turn off the warning message.

• Next, select the “Settings and Privacy” option from the pop-up menu.

• Then pick “Content You See” from the drop-down menu on the left, which will bring up a selection of alternatives.

• To turn off the warning for tweets, go to the top of the page and select the checkbox next to “Display Media That May Contain Sensitive Content.”

How to Show “Sensitive Content” in Searches

Tweets containing sensitive information are generally hidden from search results, but you may allow them if you so want.

You may follow these steps in the Twitter app for Android, just as you did previously, however the option is not accessible in the Twitter app for iPhone or iPad.

How to Remove the Warning From Your Own Tweets

More > Settings & Privacy > Privacy and Safety > Your Tweets will allow you to prevent Twitter from labelling any material you post as containing sensitive content. Remove the checkmark from the box labelled “Mark media you tweet as containing material that may be sensitive.”

• However, this feature is not accessible in the Twitter app for the iPhone or iPad, only on the web or in the Android application.

• More information > Preferences & Privacy > Privacy and Security > Tweets will enable you to avoid Twitter labelling any item you upload as having sensitive content if you use a hashtag to indicate this. Make sure that the checkmark is removed from the box that says “Mark media you tweet as having information that may be sensitive.”

It is not available in the Twitter app for iPhone or iPad, but it is available on the web and in the Twitter programme for Android phones and tablets.
