How do I delete all my likes on X (Twitter)?
To delete all your likes on X, use a bulk deletion tool like DeleteOldPosts that includes a "Delete All Likes" feature. Unlike tweets, X doesn't let you unlike posts in bulk through their native interface - you'd need to manually unlike each post one by one. DeleteOldPosts connects to X's API and can remove your entire likes history efficiently. Although X made likes private in June 2024, post authors can still see you liked their posts, and likes from before the change were fully public — so cleaning up your likes remains an important part of a complete social media privacy audit, especially before a job search.
1. Why Delete Your X Likes?
Your liked tweets are visible on your profile and can be just as revealing as your own posts:
Political Signal
Your likes reveal political leanings even if you never post about politics. Liking certain accounts or takes is enough.
Content Preferences
Your likes create a detailed picture of your interests, humor preferences, and the content you engage with.
Controversial Endorsements
Liking a controversial tweet can be seen as endorsing it. Old likes on content that aged poorly can resurface.
2. What Your Likes Reveal About You
| Like Pattern | What It Reveals |
|---|---|
| Political accounts | Your political views and affiliations |
| Controversial takes | Opinions you agree with but don't post |
| NSFW content | Personal preferences best kept private |
| Competitor posts | Business interests and monitoring |
3. How to Delete Likes in Bulk

Confirm and Delete
Review and confirm to start bulk unlike process
Note: No Selective Unlike
Due to API limitations, bulk like deletion removes all likes. There's no way to selectively unlike based on date or content type.
4. Privacy Settings for Likes
After cleaning up your likes, consider these privacy measures:
Make Account Private
Protected accounts hide likes from non-followers. Settings → Privacy and safety → Audience and tagging.
Be Mindful Going Forward
Remember that post authors can see who liked their posts, and X's privacy settings can change. Consider whether you'd want a like attached to your name.
