XWipe

XWipe deletes your own X history — posts, likes, reposts, bookmarks, and the accounts you follow. Sign in, pick what goes, confirm. The deleting runs on our servers, so you can close the app. No subscription: you buy credits, one credit per item, and they never expire. WHAT YOU CAN WIPE • Posts you wrote — tweets, if you still call them that • Likes • Reposts (yours; the original posts stay up) • Bookmarks • Accounts you follow TWO WAYS TO PICK Tap-select from your recent activity when you know the exact post you want gone. Or run a bulk wipe by type and narrow it down: a date range, a keyword, or both. Everything you posted in 2019. Everything mentioning "crypto". Or no filter at all, and the whole lot goes. IT TAKES HOURS, AND WE'LL SAY SO X allows roughly 50 deletions every 15 minutes. Nobody gets around that, so a large wipe runs for hours. That's why jobs run on XWipe's servers instead of your phone. Start one and close the app. It keeps going. • Live progress while it runs • Push notification and email when it finishes • Every job kept in your history HARD TO FAT-FINGER Nothing deletes on one tap. A filtered wipe needs a deliberate confirm. A full unfiltered wipe makes you type your own handle before the button arms. Deleted posts don't come back. X doesn't hand them back to anyone — you, us, or anybody else. Likes, reposts, bookmarks and follows you can redo by hand, but XWipe can't rebuild those lists for you. WHAT IT CAN'T DO X's API reaches your most recent ~3,200 items per type. Older history is still yours to delete, but it takes the archive file X emails you, uploaded at getxwipe.com on a computer. Those archives run to several gigabytes, which makes it a desktop job. The app shows you how to request yours. It cannot do that upload on a phone. PRICING — PAY AS YOU GO One credit deletes one item. Choose a small pack for a targeted clean-up, or the large pack for a full history wipe — current prices are listed above, in your own currency. Credits never expire. Nothing renews, and there is nothing to cancel. WHO USES IT People job hunting. People who changed their mind about 2013. Anyone who has worked out that ten years of posts is ten years of public record, and would rather choose what stays in it. XWipe is not affiliated with or endorsed by X Corp. It works through X's public API, with access you grant at sign-in and can revoke whenever you like. Support: getxwipe.com/help Privacy: getxwipe.com/privacy

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Global Seismic Data at none against XWipe's 2. XWipe's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 8 months) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
