What to do when you need to delete retweets in bulk

If you want to delete over 500 retweets, we recommend requesting your Twitter archive and importing it into Redact’s desktop app for a smoother experience. Please note that importing files is a Premium feature and isn’t available for free users.

Using the app, you’ll be able to delete tweets within Twitter’s allowed threshold. However, for older tweets, you might encounter issues unless you import the archive file. For what it’s worth, I always import my data file before doing anything on Twitter.
