How to Unblock Someone on Twitter

How to Unblock Someone on Twitter: If you sometimes blocked someone on Twitter by accident or intentionally, and now you wish to redeem your actions by unblocking them, well, it's fairly easy to unblock people on Twitter. But you have to note that even after unblocking an individual on Twitter, they will no longer be part of your followers, so it will be necessary for such individual to follow you again for them to access your tweet on their newsfeed.

I really don’t want to know your reason for blocking someone on Twitter, but regardless of the reasons, you can as well silence them by muting them. The “mute” feature is an alternative to blocking an account on Twitter, it removes an account's tweets from your timeline without unfollowing or blocking the account, it will simply hide it from view, you also won't receive notifications from the account, but it will be able to send direct messages.

So how you unblock someone on Twitter? Follow the steps below to unblock someone on Twitter using PC, on iPhone and on Android device;

On PC or Mac

The quickest way to unblock someone is through the blocked accounts list.

• Go to Twitter.com in your favorite web browser.
• Log in if you are not already logged into Twitter.
• Navigate to your blocked account settings by clicking your profile picture, choosing Settings and privacy, and clicking Blocked accounts on the left-side menu.
