Managing the visibility of your X account is important for controlling who can see your content and interact with you. Whether you want to reach a broader audience or keep your posts private, understanding how to adjust your account's visibility settings is crucial. This guide will walk you through the steps to manage your account visibility to help you maintain privacy.
Why Managing Account Visibility is Important
Your account's visibility on X determines who can see your posts, interact with you, and follow your account. By managing these settings, you can:
Control Your Audience: Decide who can view your posts—everyone or your approved followers.
Enhance Privacy: Limit interactions to only those you choose, reducing unwanted engagement.
Build Your Online Presence: Make your content public to increase your audience and reach.
How to Manage Your X Account Visibility
X offers visibility settings for some profile fields that allow you to control who can see this information on your profile. If you provide information without a visibility setting, it will be visible to the public.
For your birth date, X provides specific visibility settings. You can choose who can see your birth year separately from your birth day and month. Note that the birth date you enter must belong to the account owner.
