# Profile clicks not working/slow on the grid list?

The Twitter profile clicks and the follow/unfollow requests use the same browser capacity which allows 4 concurrent connections for modern-day browsers. That means, if there are items in the queue, the profile click request also gets in the line and waits for the queue to be processed.

It would be better to click Twitter profiles, listing them on the Grid when there are no items in the queue.

# What does the "no info" label on the Grid's Last Tweet column mean?

There are three main reasons for the "no info" label on Grid.‌

1. Protected accounts:  **Protected Tweets are not visible.** Only visible to your Twitter followers. We can't fetch the "Last Tweet" data of protected accounts.&#x20;
2. Some Twitter accounts have never tweeted yet. They don't have the last tweet date.
3. We occasionally clean our Tweets database to make room for new tweets by deleting old tweets more than 40 days old. Since the inactive threshold is 30 days, you can safely assume that the users are inactive if there is "no info" on their last Tweet date. (unless the account is a protected account as those accounts are not public)

‌

.&#x20;

# Can I switch my Twitter account with another one in a paid plan?

Unfortunately, you can't switch your paid account with another Twitter account. One Circleboom Twitter account can be linked only to one Twitter account. This way, Circleboom guarantees the safety of your Twitter authorization. 

So, if you need to manage another Twitter account, you need to create a new Circleboom Twitter subscription.

{% content-url %}
[Plans and Pricing](/twitter/getting-started/plans-and-pricing)
{% end-content-url %}

# Why some of the accounts listed as inactive had tweeted a few times?

We refresh our cached data every 15 days. That means the data you came upon Circleboom couldn't be older than 15 days. We try our best to display the most recent version of the data on the search results (grid); however, it may be as old as 15 days.

On the other hand, our "inactive accounts" algorithm creates great results with cached data of Twitter followers and gives accurate results. If you check these accounts,  you would see that most of those accounts are inactive, which means they aren't tweeting frequently even they have new tweets.

# How can I convert my Whitelist to a Twitter List

{% hint style="info" %}
The Whitelist protects your friends from accidental unfollows during fast-clicks. By default, we exclude the whitelist results from the unfollow lists unless you say so.
{% endhint %}

### To convert your Whitelist to Twitter lists; 

1. Go to your `White List` page through the `Circle` menu
2. Select the accounts you want to add to a Twitter list
3. Click on the "Blue button" with the text `Add selected to Twitter List`.
4. Create a new Twitter List or add to an existing one.

{% hint style="warning" %}
1- Up to 100 profiles can be added to a Twitter List each time.\
2- The list created here will be set as Private. \
3- You can manage your Twitter Lists on your Twitter Account page.
{% endhint %}


# How to switch between my Child/Master account

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Child Accounts** feature is only available for **Enterprise Plan** subscribers. Circleboomers who previously subscribed to the Multi Plan can continue using the Child account feature.
{% endhint %}

**Switch from Master to Child Account**

**Step 1:** Click on the `Account` button on your profile image.

# How to Add your Followers to Blacklist

The Blacklist protects you from visiting and seeing unwanted profiles accidentally. When you add accounts to your Circleboom blacklist,  we **exclude the blacklist results from the searches** unless you say so.

How can you proceed to do this through Circleboom Twitter? \
\
**Step 1**: Log in to your Circleboom Twitter account.

**Step 2**: Click the “Search” Menu, and choose the sub-menu you wish under the "Search menu, such as “Needs Attention ” or " All followers".

![needs_attention.png](/uploads/needs_attention_67348b4d9c.png)


**Step 3**: Click select all checkboxes on the left upside of the Grid list.

**Step 4**: Click the “Add to selected to Blacklist” button above the grid.

![add_blacklist.png](/uploads/add_blacklist_a8e091afbc.png)

**Step 5**: Repeat the same for other pages.

{% end-content-url %}


# Creating Twitter Lists

**Step 1:** Find your target profiles. You may want to start with a Smart Search to find your target accounts or any other filtered views provided. Let’s say you’re on `Menu > The Circle > Not Following Back`.

**Step 2:** Select the profiles one by one by clicking on the checkbox at the left side on each row, or select all by clicking the “select all” at the upper left side corner of the list.

**Step 3:** Click the `Add selected to Twitter List` button. This will open a modal dialog.

![](<https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/Screenshot 2021-06-01 at 22.24.31.png>)

**Step 4:**  You can either add the selected profiles to your existing Twitter List or create a new Twitter List.

**Step 5:** If you want to use one of your existing lists, click on the second option, choose one of your lists, then click the green button below. All the profiles you selected will be added to your Twitter list immediately.

![](<https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/Screenshot 2021-06-01 at 22.25.25.png>)

**Step 6:** If you want to create a new Twitter list, select the first option, give a shiny name to your new list and click on the green button below.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Pro Tip:** A quick reminder; list names cannot exceed 25 characters.
{% endhint %}

**Step 7:** Success! Now you can check your lists on [https://twitter.com/lists](https://twitter.com/lists)&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
Please refer to our blog, ["How to create Twitter Lists with just a few clicks" ](https://blog.circleboom.com/how-to-create-twitter-lists-with-just-a-few-clicks/)for details.

## How long would it take to remove my followers?

{% hint style="success" %}
You can request to remove as many followers as at once, and we'll queue your requests to process them in a timely manner prioritizing your account safety.
{% endhint %}

Once you want to remove your followers, you can visit the "All my followers" tool under the Search menu, and click on the "remove selected followers" button after selecting unwanted followers.

![remove_followers.png](/uploads/remove_followers_280310f4a3.png)

Once we receive your request to remove followers, those accounts will be queued for the removal process, and they will be processed in a timely and secure manner, which is compliant with Twitter policies. For your account's safety, your followers will be removed one by one, and we will leave a short time before moving forward to delete the next follower.

You can order to remove as many followers at once, and we'll be removing 250 accounts per day and 7500 accounts monthly.

# Connect Child Accounts

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Child Accounts** feature is only available for **Enterprise Plan** subscribers. Circleboomers who previously subscribed to the Multi Plan can continue using the Child account feature.
{% endhint %}

**Step 1:** Click on the `Account` button on your profile image.

# I deleted my Twitter archive, but my tweet counter does not show zero after

If you deleted your Twitter archive on Circleboom or any other third-party tools, but the tweet counter doesn't show zero yet, you can watch our video tutorial and try again once more time:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8effbsfb4z8" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Haven't it worked again? Then continue reading below:

Even we do our best to reduce your tweet count down to "zero," in some cases, we can't do that due to some Twitter limitations, such as the following:

* You try to delete your Tweet, which is originally a retweet of some other account's, and the original tweet has been deleted by its owner.
* You try to delete a retweet that the original poster (the source) account suspended, deleted, deactivated, or became private.
* Your tweet is on a server whose data is not fully updated by Twitter.

If one of these cases is the issue, we try to delete your tweet; however, it might affect your Tweet count on Twitter due to their architecture.

# How Can I Use the Location Filter Efficiently?

{% hint style="info" %}
Twitter Account Location based on the ‘home’ location provided by the user in their public profile. This is a free-form character field and may or may not contain metadata that can be geo-referenced.
{% endhint %}

For instance, Twitter users can write "USA", "US" or "The US" sometimes. In addition, users may also write city names without indicating countries in short or an extension way like "New York, NY", "NYC", "NY", "Trenton, NJ", "Paris", "London" etc. Even some typos are also possible like "Newyork" instead of "New York". The text you're writing on Circleboom Location Filter should match exactly with what users put their location info.

If you didn't get the result on Circleboom Smart Search, then you should change the text written on the location filter. We should think from the users' perspective since the location data on Twitter is not drop-down menu selection, and users can write whatever they want on their location info. Even some users write "my sweat home". We're also working to find more smart ways to list more accurate results on location search.

In the meantime, you can also use Grid Power Search for the location filter. Try to use the hashtag/keyword search, and after sorting accounts on Grid, try to [use Grid Power Search](/twitter/feature/using-the-grid).

“[The Grid](/twitter/feature/using-the-grid)” has its own ” Grid Power Search.” Please enter your search term into the “Grid Power Search" text box located upper right corner of the grid. We filter out the search results to find what you want. The search happens as you type. The grid search only filters out the items which are visible on the current page. 

# Can I delete more than 3200 Twitter likes?

{% hint style="info" %}
You can [delete your most recent 3200 Twitter likes in bulk](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/unlike-delete-all-twitter-likes) via Circleboom Twitter!
{% endhint %}

Video tutorial:
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6Jq3b_UadFU" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Twitter has several policies and usage limitations all across the Twitter network. They don't allow anyone or any program to delete more than (most recent) 3,200 Twitter likes. Their architecture doesn't allow a user (including API) to scroll beyond the most recent 3,200 likes. If you already deleted them using Circleboom or any other tool, you can't delete your liked tweets unless you liked them after the deletion. So, you can still delete your new Twitter likes!

The number of likes shown by Twitter after deleting the most recent 3,200 likes includes the very old "likes" count. Even though Twitter shows a number on the "Likes" count section, it doesn't display old likes on your timeline and does not allow anyone to delete those old likes/tweets. This is a Twitter design decision, and we can't do anything about it. If it so happens that Twitter changes this rule in the future,  we'll definitely implement it. 

{% hint style="info" %}
If you are having difficulty with deleting your recent 3200 tweets, you can find the solution [here](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/delete-old-tweets-archive).

# What are the limitations of your app?

We offer a freemium plan with some limitations. Almost all of the features can be used with the freemium plan except Analytics, Whitelist  Blacklist and some other modules. The limits are for the lifetime in the trial period.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
If you have a Pro or Enterprise subscription, the following limits are mandatory and strictly set and forced by Twitter. We do not limit your accounts. Once your account's daily activity exceeds Twitter's daily threshold, Twitter blocks you from following anymore.
{% endhint %}

### **Twitter Follow Limits:**

Twitter Following Limit (daily): **Every Twitter account can follow up to 400 accounts per day. Verified Twitter accounts are able to follow up to 1,000 accounts per day.** Please note that this is a technical account limit only, and there are additional rules prohibiting aggressive following behavior. Read about the following limits and prohibited behavior here: [https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/twitter-follow-limit](https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/twitter-follow-limit)

These limits include all actions from all devices, including web, mobile, API, etc. API requests from all third-party applications are tracked against the hourly API limit. People who use multiple third-party applications with their accounts may reach their API limit faster than a single-app user.

### **Twitter Unfollow Limits**&#x20;

Even though there are no known unfollow limitations made public by Twitter, to respect Twitter’s policies and to eliminate any usage of automation rule for unfollowing, we’re advising a 1,500 unfollow/day limit for unfollows.

Since Twitter monitors all accounts for aggressive or automated following and unfollowing churn and takes actions against both users and applications who try to abuse the system and usually bans or suspend them, **we're not offering any bulk follow/unfollow actions on Circleboom**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Twitter’s limitations bind everyone even users or third-party apps like Circleboom.
{% endhint %}

# Using The Grid

Let’s start with the “not following back” module, which helps you to find who is not following you back!

![](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/using_grid_circleboom.png)

1. “**Don’t show the profiles I’ve just visited within last X days**” filter.  When you start listing "Lost Focus" users, you can change our default of “7 days” if you want. The "Lost focus" menu gives you a list of accounts that are not following you. 
2. The verified accounts are mostly owned by celebrities, companies or renowned internet people. Don’t expect them to follow you back easily. Use the “**Don’t show Verified**” filter to hide them on your "Lost Focus" list. You may also add them to the Whitelist to protect accidentally unfollows if you don’t want to deal with the filter. The Whitelisted accounts don’t show up on the grid unless you wanted it.
3. “**Include Whitelisted**” filter helps you to list whitelisted accounts, as mentioned before. We prefer making some cleanup operations on whitelisted accounts every once in a while.
4. “**Show only Verified**” filter works like the “Include Whitelisted” filter and helps you to list verified accounts on your list. If you’re not happy with the Twitter feed of a celebrity, you always have your right to visit profiles and unfollow them.
5. Select some accounts and click the “**Add selected to Whitelist**” button to protect them.
6. To add selected accounts to a new Twitter list or an existing one, click on “**Add selected to Twitter List**” [Click for the blog post about it with a video](https://blog.circleboom.com/how-to-create-twitter-lists-with-just-a-few-clicks/).
7. Blacklist almost works as same as the Whitelist, which protects you from following unwanted profiles accidentally.

The Grid only displays the necessary info about the accounts you’re working on;

![](<https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/Screen Shot 2020-05-12 at 02.30.13.png>)

1. “**Name**” displays the profile name, the screen name (Twitter @ handle) and location info if it exists. You can order this column by clicking on it. It also opens a new tab of the Twitter profile of this user if you click on @ Twitter handle.
2. “**Tweets**” shows the Tweet count of the account. This number occasionally differs from the number shown on the Twitter profile page. Circleboom shows user public data from its caches, and this may result in some differences.
3. “**Joined**” shows you the account’s age and creation date on Twitter. Some Circleboom users mention that they’re using this to sort Twitter accounts by their account age and follow them accordingly.
4. “**Friends**” displays and sorts by friends count (How many users the account follows)
5. “**Followers**” displays and sorts by followers count (The account is followed by how many people)
6. Paging to help you browse the list. By default, the grid shows 100 items per page.
7. “The Grid”  has its own "**Grid Power Search.**" Just enter your search term into “Grid Power Search Textbox” located upper right corner of the grid. We filter out the search results to find what you want. The search happens as you type. 
8. The "**Last Tweet**" date displays the last-known tweet date of Twitter accounts. 


{% hint style="info" %}
The Grid's default order is the last -known- Tweet date. 
{% endhint %}



# "Not following back" page shows the accounts I'm currently following

Under normal circumstances, the "not following back" page shouldn't show the accounts you are currently following. This issue is related to Twitter Discrepancy and happens rarely. Most likely, the issue will disappear on your next log-in to Circleboom.

We are directly getting the data from the Twitter APIs and listing them as is. On the other hand, Twitter APIs might send wrong data rarely. That is a known issue for the accounts that make aggressive follow and unfollows on the Twitter ecosystem and called "Discrepancy." Twitter’s back-end systems run on a distributed cluster of decomposed services. There are often cases where data sets will need to resynchronize between instances and data centers. This means, all the user data moves between server farms all the time, and some data servers may update later than others. 

It is also a common issue among the Twitter community here: [https://twittercommunity.com/t/discrepancy-in-followers-count/80018/20](https://twittercommunity.com/t/discrepancy-in-followers-count/80018/20)

To prevent this behavior, we always suggest our users act less aggressively, as [Twitter strictly mentions in its policies and rules.](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-rules)

# Do You Have Bulk/Mass or Automated Unfollow and Follow?

{% hint style="info" %}
If you've ended up here, you may see [who are not following you back on Twitter](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/twitter-circle-tool/twitter-audience-insights/not-following-back): If so, you can find out how to monitor them in a few clicks via our video tutorial below:
{% endhint %}

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4d1Em67Kdew" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Some of our users ask why we do not allow bulk / automated follow and bulk /automated unfollow actions on Circleboom? Indeed,  this is beyond our will and literally against [Twitter’s rules and policies](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-rules). 

Since 2013, Twitter has been announcing that it would no longer allow third parties to use Twitter’s API to do bulk follow or bulk unfollow Twitter accounts. Twitter does not permit any automated or bulk following or unfollowing behavior to protect its platform from spammy behavior.

When you search the internet, you may come upon some applications which provide bulk follow or bulk unfollow features regardless of Twitter’s rules & policies. **That's why we don't offer any bulk update-modules or abusing bots.**

{% hint style="success" %}
However, you can [detect inactive, fake, or spam accounts](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/unfollow-inactive-twitter-accounts) via Circleboom, and list those accounts to securely remove through your Twitter account.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Please note that Twitter monitors all accounts for aggressive or automated following and unfollowing churn and takes actions against both users and applications who try to abuse the system and usually bans or suspends them. We strongly advise you not to use that kind of unauthorized application or tool.

# Can I change my child accounts with a new one?

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Child Accounts** feature is only available for **Enterprise Plan** subscribers. Circleboomers who previously subscribed to the Multi Plan can continue using the Child account feature.
{% endhint %}

You can't change your child account with another Twitter account unless you haven’t used your current child account on Circleboom beyond our free tier's limits. 

If you need to manage more Twitter accounts with Circleboom Twitter, our annual prices are coming up to a 50% discount. Most of our subscribers are permanent and long-term users, and we want to offer even more affordable prices for them. 

If you have short-term clients, you can't benefit from our annual price advantages. That's why we don't support changing the child accounts with a new one.

While we're offering more affordable prices for annual subscriptions, we're also keeping our monthly prices on a reasonable level.

Agencies can prefer a monthly subscription, and at the end of the term (1 month), if they want, it's possible to end their subscription and create a new one with new clients.

# Why some of my likes still shown on my Twitter profile?

Are your unliked tweets still showing up on your Twitter account? Let us explain the reasons and how to delete Twitter likes at once.

If you've already deleted all your Twitter likes present on your account page, and some are still available there, you can [get rid of all your Twitter likes at once via Circleboom](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/unlike-delete-all-twitter-likes)!

Video tutorial:

Secondly, if you still want to know the most possible reasons behind this problem, let us explain it briefly.
\
Twitter’s back-end systems run on a distributed cluster of decomposed services. There are often cases where data sets will need to resynchronize between instances and data centers. This means, all the user data moves between server farms all the time, and some data servers may update later than others. 

{% hint style="info" %}
It is also a common issue among the Twitter community here: [https://twittercommunity.com/t/discrepancy-in-followers-count/80018/20…](https://t.co/YXogCYz9PA?amp=1) 
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
And here: [https://twittercommunity.com/t/problems-destroying-favorites/91897/15…](https://t.co/9fHQS6xteM?amp=1)
{% endhint %}

TLDR; services like Circleboom makes requests to Twitter via their official APIs (programmer access interfaces) and Twitter fulfills the requests successfully. Yet, they may show some of the destroyed data for a while.


{% hint style="info" %}
Also please keep in mind, due to Twitter's limitations, you can delete up to 3,200 of your most recent likes:

# How can I convert my Blacklist to a Twitter List

{% hint style="info" %}
The Blacklist protects you from following unwanted profiles accidentally. By default, we exclude the blacklist results from the searches unless you say so.
{% endhint %}

While we're protecting you from making mistakes, you may want to take a peek at what they’re sharing on Twitter, right? To do that, the best way is to send them to a Twitter list and checking what they're sharing every once in a while.

### To convert your Blacklist to Twitter lists; 

1. Go to your `Blacklist` page through the `Search` menu
2. Select the accounts you want to add to a Twitter list
3. Click on the "Blue button" with the text `Add selected to Twitter List`
4. Create a new Twitter List or add to an existing one.

{% hint style="warning" %}
1- Up to 100 profiles can be added to a Twitter List each time.\
2- The list created here will be set as Private. \
3- You can manage your Twitter Lists on your Twitter Account page.
{% endhint %}

# How long does it take to delete my tweets or Twitter archive?

To [delete all your tweets](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/delete-old-tweets-archive), we mean beyond the most recent 3,200 ones, you should [download your Twitter archive file](https://help.circleboom.com/twitter/faq/how-to-download-my-twitter-history-archive). 

{% hint style="info" %}
Once requested Twitter archive file, it will be delivered to your submitted email address within 24 hours.

As we receive your order to [delete your Twitter archive](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/delete-old-tweets-archive), your tweets will be queued for the removal process, and they will be processed in a timely and secure manner, which is compliant with Twitter policies. 

For your account's safety, your tweets will be removed one by one, and we will leave a short time before moving forward to delete the next tweet. 

{% hint style="info" %}
While the exact time necessary for cleaning your Twitter history depends on your number of tweets and overall demand on our servers, deleting 10,000 tweets **may take 5 and 10 hours**.

# Does Circleboom have a Mobile App?

Yes! Circleboom launched its IOS mobile app, and you can download it from your App Store:

## Circleboom on Android Devices

At the moment, we do not have an Android mobile app. 

Yet, our web app is small-screen friendly, and our users with Android mobile devices can manage their Twitter profile while they’re away from their workstation with just a few screen-taps:

{% hint style="success" %}
[Try Circleboom on your Android device now!](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool)
{% endhint %}

Yes! Circleboom Twitter has a mobile app for iOS devices, but it is also easily used on Android mobile devices through a browser.

# Why some of Twitter accounts’ last tweet date column show “no info” in the grid listing?

The reasons listed below prevent Circleboom to show the last tweet date of Twitter accounts:

1. If Twitter accounts are protected then nobody can reach those accounts’ tweets. We label those accounts’ last tweet date as a “No info” on Grid.
2. Accounts have never tweeted or deleted all their tweets.
3. Circleboom bots regularly check all cached Twitter accounts in our servers and update the last tweets date regularly. Some of the accounts remain not updated, Most likely, these kinda accounts going to be updated soon. During this short time gap, we label those accounts as “no info” on Grid.

# My account is suspended, what should I do?


If your Twitter account has been suspended, there can be several reasons behind it.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you believe your activity (like aggressive or abusive language, etc.) over a specific time period led to your suspension.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
In such a situation, you should need to [delete tweets from that time period](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/delete-all-tweets/delete-tweets-by-date) selectively or in bulk.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}

Or if you post the same tweet several times, Twitter may consider you to be spamming.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
In this situation, you can [filter these tweets by keywords or topics](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/delete-all-tweets/delete-tweets-by-keyword) and delete them all at once.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Aggressive use of following and unfollowing methods to gain more followers is defined as aggressive behavior, and such actions are forbidden by Twitter.
{% endhint %}

Like all services out there, Twitter has its own rules & policies those bind everyone. As Twitter users, all we need to do is to follow directives on [Twitter Rules & Policies](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-rules).

When your account got suspended by Twitter, check your inbox for account suspension email by Twitter and follow their instructions. Account locking out issues happens regardless of the app you use, whether you use the Twitter website or an application like Circleboom.

If you do not receive an e-mail, you can also appeal for suspension here: [https://help.twitter.com/forms/general](https://help.twitter.com/forms/general)

Disappearing of all of your friends happens when Twitter temporarily locks a Twitter account. Once the account owner proves, all friends and followers show up again on the profile page.

Twitter suspends users’ accounts from time to time when they do an aggressive follow churn as mentioned on Circleboom and [Twitter Rules](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-following-rules):

> What is aggressive follow churn? If you decide to follow someone and then change your mind later, you can visit the person’s profile page and unfollow them. Aggressive follow churn is when an account repeatedly follows and then unfollows a large number of Twitter accounts. That may be done to get lots of people to notice them, to circumvent a Twitter limit, or to change their follower-to-following ratio. These behaviors negatively impact the Twitter experience for other people, are common spam tactics, and may lead to account suspension.

{% hint style="info" %}
Twitter’s rules bind everyone. What we suggest is to keep your CB account, and use it with nonaggressive intent to strengthen it; otherwise, Twitter may suspend your Twitter account again, and you may have to talk them down to re-open your Twitter account.
{% endhint %}

If your Twitter account has been suspended, we're here to help you!

# Getting "Somehow your Twitter token is expired or invalidated..."  message

The token issue is a very rare issue which some of our users may occasionally experience. Actually, the issue is on the Twitter side.

If you get the below pop-up repeatedly while you are using Circleboom app, you can get rid of it by following these instructions.

> "Somehow your Twitter token is expired or invalidated this happens when you changed something on Twitter or You've been idle too long. Please log-in again to fix this"

![Annoying Twitter Token Expire problem.](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/Twitter-Token-Circleboom.png)

### Step 1: Find Circleboom

Please go to your Twitter settings and click "Apps and sessions" under "Security and account settings". Once you get the app list, look for "Circleboom" in it.

![settings_appdevices.png](/uploads/settings_appdevices_9252b77120.png)

![Twitter's apps and devices section](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/twitter-apps-circleboom.jpg)

If you couldn't see the Circleboom app on your Twitter Apps list,

1. Please log out from Circleboom and Twitter
2. Log in again to your Circleboom account
3. Check the app list until you see the Circleboom on your Twitter -> Settings -> Security and account settings -> Apps and sessions. Sometimes, Twitter might not show the apps on your list. Therefore, proceed with this step frequently until you see the Circleboom app in your Twitter Apps List. You will see the Circleboom app soon on your list.

![](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/revoke-apps.jpg)

### Step 2: Revoke the permission

After seeing Circleboom Apps on your Twitter App List, please revoke Circleboom's permissions and remove it from your Twitter account.

![](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/revoke-app-circleboom.jpg)

### Step 3: Rest 

Please give your Circleboom account a rest, at least a couple of hours after revoking Circleboom’s permissions to try again. Do not use your Circleboom account for a couple of hours. 

 By “Waiting a couple of hours", we mean around 12 hours at minimum, and this might be necessary to fix your problem. Most probably, the Twitter servers releasing your token within that period.

### Step 4: Try again

After waiting a couple of hours, log in to your Circleboom account to see if it is working. 

If the issue is still there, please repeat the steps again, and wait at least 24 hours on Step 3.

# I'm getting some error messages

{% hint style="info" %}
Twitter sends a confirmation code or an error message to every action made through the Twitter API. [Circleboom](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool) logs these messages, but they might not be shown to you during fast follow actions.​
{% endhint %}

## You are unable to follow more people at this time.

Twitter sends this error message along with [a URL to this Help Center article](https://support.twitter.com/articles/66885-i-can-t-follow-people-follow-limits) when;

1. Your account may be locked or limited.
2. You may have hit a follow limit.

These limits are clearly defined in their documentation as follows;

> 1. **Every account can follow 5,000 accounts total**. Once you’ve followed 5,000 accounts, there are limits to the number of additional accounts you can follow. This number is different for each account and is based on your ratio of followers to following; this ratio is not published. Follow limits cannot be lifted by Twitter and everyone is subject to limits, even high profile and API accounts.
> 2. **Every Twitter account is able to follow up to 400 accounts per day. Verified Twitter accounts are able to follow up to 1,000 accounts per day.**  in addition to the account-based limits above. Please note that this is just a technical limit to prevent egregious abuse from spam accounts.
> 3. **Accounts are also prohibited from aggressively following other accounts**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The limits are defined by Twitter. If their AI decides you’re following/unfollowing aggressively, she may slow things down for an uncertain period of time. When this happens, Twitter API sends a “you’re not allowed to follow more” error even you’re not followed 400 for that day. If you wait a little bit, she opens the door again to see how you’ll behave. 
{% endhint %}

## You have exceeded the Twitter error limit. Please wait a little bit more to try it again.

After getting a certain number of Twitter error messages, Circleboom prevents you from making more requests to prevent your account from getting locked or suspended. 

If you're getting this error, call it a day and give it a break. When you try after a while, you'll be able to do follow and unfollow requests through the Twitter API.

## To protect our users from spam and other malicious activity, this account is temporarily locked. 

Twitter locks or suspends users’ account time to time when they do an aggressive follow churn as mentioned on Circleboom and Twitter Rules [https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/twitter-follow-limit](https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/twitter-follow-limit)

That means, when a user follows too many users in a short time period or unfollows them faster than an average Twitter user, Twitter marks the user for a period to close-watch him/her for follows/unfollows across the Twitter ecosystem including all 3rd party apps like Circleboom,  Twitter mobile apps, and websites.

Please log in to [https://twitter.com](https://twitter.com) to unlock your account.

## You have been blocked from following this account at the request of the user.

When you try to follow a Twitter account that blocked you earlier, Twitter sends this error message to inform you. Circleboom logs these messages but they might not be shown to you during fast follow actions.

## Invalid or expired token.

This might happen when;

1. You try to follow/unfollow after getting "[you are unable to follow more people at this time](https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/twitter-follow-limit)" error, Twitter may think that someone or some apps are using your Twitter account in a harmful way, and may invalidate your Twitter account's tokens (authentication info) to protect your account from being abused by 3rd party systems and expects you to re-login. 
2. Your browser has a "Do not track me" feature on it. It may stem from several Twitter authentication issues including the "invalid or expired token" error Twitter sends and blocks your follow/unfollows requests if it is open. ![](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/Circleboom-tracking-protection.jpg)
3. The App’s permissions revoked on Twitter. Please check [https://twitter.com/settings/applications](https://twitter.com/settings/applications) page if our app named "Circleboom” still got access. If it is revoked by mistake, it prevents Circleboom to fulfill your requests on behalf of you.
4. [Your account may be temporarily suspended](https://help.circleboom.com/twitter/faq/my-account-is-suspended-what-should-i-do) and/or blocked doing any follows/unfollows by Twitter due to aggressive usage.
5. Your computer's time is not synced properly. Please sync your time with the internet time.

# Whitelisting Twitter Followers

For those who want to exclude some profiles from your search results, we developed the whitelist module and embedded it into all Circleboom Twitter’s tools. You can include them by using filters on top of the grid in each Circle module.

**Step 1:** Let’s say you’re on “Menu > Circle > Lost Focus.” **The green buttons on the right corner** are `add to whitelist` buttons and they work individually.

![](<https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/Screenshot 2021-06-01 at 22.46.14.png>)

**Step 2:** If you want to add more than one Twitter account to your whitelist, you can **use the “big green button”** on the upper left side of the grid.

# My Twitter account is locked; what should I do?

Twitter bots 🤖 scan the entire Twitter ecosystem 24/7 to flag spammers, trolls, and accounts acting against Twitter's policies. Occasionally, these bots wrongly flag genuine user accounts. When Twitter locks an account, there might be a couple of reasons;

* The most common reason is having no phone number connected to your account. If you don't have a phone number linked to your account, most likely, the bots will flag the account as it is not genuine, sooner or later.

{% hint style="success" %}
Hence, If you haven't added your phone number to your Twitter account, Twitter highly recommends adding mobile phone numbers to accounts to prevent lock-outs. When your account is locked, Twitter needs to confirm you are the valid owner by sending a code via text.
{% endhint %}

* The second common reason is that your account might be locked for security purposes by Twitter. If you are logged in to your account and see a message that your account has been locked for security purposes, this means that Twitter has detected suspicious behavior and bots thought that your Twitter account might be compromised. You need to follow Twitter instructions to re-activate your account. When you do that, you prove you're willingly using 3rd party Apps.

{% hint style="success" %}
Twitter uses automated systems to understand whether you willingly started to use 3rd party applications like Circleboom, Buffer, Hootsuite, and others. It does that by locking you out instead of just asking if you began to use these apps willingly. When you open up the Twitter application on your phone, it automatically verifies you by sending a text message. After that, you're good to go.
{% endhint %}

* Your account is limited because it may have violated the Twitter Rules.\
  \
  If your account is limited because it may have violated the Twitter Rules, Twitter may ask you to perform specific actions before removing your restricted state. These actions may include verifying your email address, adding a phone number to your account, or removing Tweets that violate Twitter rules.

{% hint style="info" %}
We highly recommend you avoiding automated rules, like sending duplicated tweets, automatic hashtags, and other automated rules stated in [Twitter rules.](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-rules)&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## **Why is my account locked while I'm using Circleboom or other 3rd party Apps?**

Twitter uses some automated systems to understand if you willingly started to use 3rd party applications like Circleboom, Buffer, Hootsuite, etc. by locking out you instead of just asking if you began to use these apps on your own choice. When you open up the Twitter application on your phone, it automatically verifies you by sending an email or a text message. After that, you're good to go.

{% hint style="success" %}
**[Circleboom](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool) is fully compliant with Twitter rules and policies. You can always use Circleboom safely.**&#x20;

## **Why do my Twitter followers or friends count shown as "0"?**&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
**Don’t panic! You didn't really lose your Twitter followers and Friends.**&#x20;
{% endhint %}

It happens when Twitter locks you out. In that case, users can see your profile and your Tweets as the account is still active. When you verify your account, the numbers on your Twitter account will automatically be reinstated by Twitter (_This is not a thing 3rd party applications like Circleboom can do._) Don't forget to add your mobile phone numbers to your Twitter accounts to prevent future lock-outs.&#x20;

The "All the ones I follow" menu lists 10.000 of your followers based on the filters you use. If you do some unfollows, and visit back the same menu, we show 10.000 of your remaining friends (It might be less than 5.000 if the grid filters are in use).

We won't list all your followers at once to keep your focus on the task.

\
**Step 1:** Login to Circleboom Twitter

Log in with your Circleboom account. If you don't have one yet, you can create it using the [login page](https://twitter.circleboom.com).

![](<https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/Screenshot 2021-08-12 at 16.37.44 (1).png>)

Once you have a Circleboom account, enter your credentials and click on the blue `login` button. When you will login your Circleboom Twitter account, you will be asked to connect your Twitter account and the authentication process goes through Twitter’s authorization dialog, and the app will be automatically added to your Twitter account.

{% end-content-url %}

**Step 2:** Head over to the upgrade page, either use the [ upgrade page](https://subscription.circleboom.com/?ref=twitter) or use the `Upgrade Now` button upper right corner of the page.

![free_upgrade.png](/uploads/free_upgrade_c65b42074b.png)


**Step 3:** Select either Pro monthly or Pro annual subscription plans.  The annual plans are up to 50% OFF.

**Step 4:** Click on the button `Use Pro`. This immediately [opens Stripe's payment page](/common/getting-started/how-secure-are-circleboom-payment-pages) for you to enter your credit card.

**Step 5:** Once the payment goes through Stripe's connect service, you'll be displayed a Thank you page and a link to start using your shiny new Circleboom plan.

# Why can't I follow anymore?

When Twitter says, "You're not allowed to follow anymore," Twitter doesn’t like your aggressive follow/unfollow churn, or you've used all your daily follow limits within the Twitter universe. When a user follows too many users in a short period or unfollows them, Twitter marks the user for a period to close-watch them for follows/unfollows across the Twitter ecosystem, including all 3rd party apps, Twitter mobile apps, and websites.

Since every Twitter account has a unique ratio between friends and followers, **the ideal ratio may range from one account to another**. This assessment is made automatically by Twitter depending on your account's specific balance.

{% hint style="info" %}
You may need to get new followers after reaching **5000 friends** to keep the number of friends and followers balanced. After then, you can keep following new Twitter accounts. 
{% endhint %}

If you don't seem to reach 5000 followers in near future, you may consider reducing your following number by [eliminating some inactive and fake accounts](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/unfollow-inactive-twitter-accounts) you may follow, shown in the video tutorial below:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/IGqmRU4G-1M" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Or if you don't want to remove some accounts, you can [make Twitter lists of your friends](https://circleboom.com/twitter-management-tool/twitter-search-tool/twitter-list-manager), and continue following them through these lists. Hence, you can continue following many other accounts without limiting yourself to 5000 following limit. We also got a hands-on video to enable you to create Twitter lists in bulk easily:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VvGU13mvRoo" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Twitter has its way of metrics to decide if you’re eligible to follow anyone on its connected platforms. You may hit your “account limitations” or "platform-based limitations” either together or individually. However, we're sure that once you hit the limit, Twitter eventually shuts you off for a certain amount of time to be sure you’re using Twitter within designated limits by them. 

{% hint style="info" %}
**The "follow limit" is not always 400/day, and it might be a lower limit for an account.** Twitter doesn’t share this info with anyone.  If you get an error through your Twitter account or 3rd party apps, you’ll get one of the "follow errors" from Twitter’s website sooner or later. 
{% endhint %}

Twitter suspends users' accounts from time to time when they do an aggressive follow churn, as mentioned on [Circleboom TOS](https://circleboom.com/terms-of-service) and [Twitter Rules](https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-following-rules): 

> "What is aggressive follow churn? If you decide to follow someone and then change your mind later, you can visit the person’s profile page and unfollow them. Aggressive follow churn is when an account repeatedly follows and then unfollows a large number of Twitter accounts. That may be done to get lots of people to notice them, circumvent a Twitter limit, or change their follower-to-following ratio. These behaviors negatively impact the Twitter experience for other people, are common spam tactics, and may lead to account suspension. "

## Twitter’s rules bind everyone 

We suggest using tools with nonaggressive intent to strengthen your Twitter account(s).

# Upgrades Between Plans

You can upgrade your paid Circleboom Twitter subscription using the [upgrade page](https://subscription.circleboom.com/?ref=twitter). 

Downgrades between paid plans are a manual process, and we’re handling them here at the back office since they sometimes need a human touch rather than a programmatic approach. 

If you want to upgrade or downgrade your current paid plan, you can always get in touch with us by e-mail or DM on Twitter. We'll respond to your request asap.

If you want to upgrade from a monthly subscription to an annual on the same plan, you can click the "Upgrade Now" in the right upper corner.

If you are not satisfied with the Twitter List Manager, you can keep reading the article in which we list the most possible reasons:

## Creating lists

* If you are unable to view a list you've recently created, try refreshing the page or clearing your browser's cache.
* Doing this should pull in any new lists you've created so that you can view them on your profile.

If you are getting below error messages on Circleboom and having difficulty creating or managing your lists, read on to find out the possible causes of your issue and how to fix them.

Error Messages : 

> "The list currently has 5,000 members in it. Lists cannot have more than 5,000 members."
>
> "The list currently has {0} members in it, and it will pass the 5,000 limit when you add selected {1} members to it. Lists cannot have more than 5,000 members."
>
> "We couldn't add your selection to the list at this time. Please try again in 15 minutes."


## Other possible causes of your issue and how to fix them

### Twitter List limits

Some limits on Twitter lists to be aware of are:

* 1000 lists permitted per account
* 5000 accounts permitted per list
* List names cannot exceed 25 characters
* List names cannot begin with a numerical character
* Twitter may limit adding more than 1000 accounts to a list per day.
* If you've already added 1000 accounts to your lists, you may need to wait a day or two before Twitter reinstates your limits.

### Replies on lists

* Replies work the same way for lists as they do for accounts. For example, if @TwitterSupport and @twitter are on a list and mention each other, those replies will appear in the list. However, if only @TwitterSupport is on a list and @TwitterSupport replies to @twitter, the reply will not appear on the list.
* There is no feature that enables list owners to send a message to every account on a list.

### Accounts with protected Tweets on lists

* Accounts that have opted to protect their Tweets can be added to lists. However, you will only see an account’s protected Tweets if you have been approved to follow that account.
* Other people who view your list will likewise only see an account’s protected Tweets if they have been approved to follow that account.

# Exact Phrase Match in Smart Search Feature

Circleboom's Smart Search uses sophisticated algorithms to find keywords in users' profiles and the latest Tweet data to produce the most accurate results.

### Keyword Search

### **1.** When 2 keywords are used, we search these keywords by adding "and" operator between them.

#### **Example:**&#x20;

**Search:** `California fire`\
**Becomes:** `California` **and** ``fire`` 

**Result:** Keeping `California` Informed With Active `Fire` Updates. #wildfires #california #news

![](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/smart-search-circleboom-2.jpg)

### **2.** When quotes in use, we search the keywords together.

#### **Example:**&#x20;

**Search:** `"California fire"`

**Result:** "`California Fire` News™ - Public Safety Info ☞ Real scoop when you need it! ★ NOT OFFICIAL ALERTS #CAFire #NeverForget"

![](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/smart-search-circleboom1.jpg)

### **3.** When "not" operator used, we search one of the keywords and strictly eliminate the results, including the keyword after the "not" operator

#### **Example:**

**Search:** `California and not fire`\

**Result:** "`California` Half Marathons | #Halfmarathons in #California | California Half Marathons on Facebook"

{% hint style="info" %}
Keyword and location fields support logical operators like “`and`, `and not`, `or`, `or not`”.  You can use them without using quotes as in example 3 above.
{% endhint %}

### Location Search

The same "logical operators" rule works for the location field also. You would search for something like `California or Chicago` to find profiles in "`California`" `or` in "`Chicago`".&#x20;

![](https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/twitter-help/images/location-search-circleboom.jpg)

{% hint style="warning" %}
Using the logical operator in searches takes a little bit more time to produce results rather than making single keyword searches.
{% endhint %}

# Troubleshooting Account Connection Errors

There might be a couple of reasons why you cannot connect your Twitter account to your Circleboom account. Troubleshooting is usually straightforward, but it might need a human touch by our support team in some circumstances. 

#### Already connected to another Circleboom User

Each Twitter account can be connected to only a Circleboom user, and you will get the following error on your screen if your Twitter account is already associated with another Circleboom account:

> This Twitter account (@ScreenName) is already connected to another Circleboom User.

![already_connected.png](/uploads/already_connected_67cc10a28e.png)

If you can access your Circleboom account your Twitter address is connected, please login with that Circleboom account. In case you cannot access your Circleboom account anymore, please contact us via [e-mail](mailto:support@circleboom.com).

#### Connecting with Child Account

If you have had a paid subscription plan for multiple accounts (Multi or Enterprise) in the previous login system where you could log in with Twitter sign-on, you need to connect your master account with your Circleboom account first.

Whenever you try to connect your Child account to Circleboom account as the master account, you will receive the following error.

> It seems that you are trying to connect with a Child account. Please connect with your master Twitter account (@ChildScreenName) while logged in to Twitter, then we\''ll do the rest!


# Using "Hide who I visited within X day(s) on CircleBoom" Filter

There are several filters that you can use to filter out your grid results. One of the most used filters is hiding and showing the accounts you visited using Circleboom within an exact time span.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Circleboom becomes more efficient when you use it consistently to manage your Twitter account and use `Visit` button to go to the profile of your target accounts. {% endhint %}

### Search Tool

When you start following users, it will take a few days for them to realize someone followed them. We’re applying **"Hide who I visited within X day(s) on Circleboom"** by default. You can change our default of “30 days” if you want, but our suggestion is to set it no less than seven days.



### Circle Tool

The same filter becomes **"Hide who I visited within X day(s) on Circleboom"** when you visit the **"Circle tool."** By using this filter, you can easily filter out the people you have already visited. So, you don't have to think about if you're trying to follow the same guys you followed and dropped before. We’re applying this filter by default. You can change our default of “10 days” if you want, but our suggestion is to set it no less than seven days.

### Why I can’t select less than 5 days on " 'Hide who I visited within X day(s) on CircleBoom' Filter”?

Due to Twitter’s strict policies about aggressive or spammy follow churns, we’re constantly tuning our algorithms to make sure that our users don’t get marked by Twitter for their behaviors and helping them don't get their accounts locked or suspended eventually.

Here is an official announcement about policy clarification which clearly says following and unfollowing immediately after 24h would be considered as aggressive following:

> **"Automated follow-back monitoring, and other forms of follower churning, are not permitted.** For example, following 100 users, waiting 24 hours, then unfollowing the users who haven’t followed you back would be considered aggressive following. Repeatedly following and unfollowing a user is a form of spammy behavior, and is never allowed. Following an account is a way to express your interest in them, not a way to try to manipulate another user into following you back.” [https://twittercommunity.com/t/policy-clarification-aggressive-following-and-inorganic-following-behavior/92769](https://twittercommunity.com/t/policy-clarification-aggressive-following-and-inorganic-following-behavior/92769)

{% hint style="warning" %}
**"Hide who I visited within X day(s) on Circleboom" filters are effective if you visited these accounts on Circleboom Twitter.** Currently, we're not taking into consideration the ones you visited via other tools or the Twitter app itself. 
{% endhint %}

# What timezone is being used for Best Time to Tweet?

The time period indicated in the Analytics tool is based on your Twitter account timezone. 

For instance, if you set your Twitter time zone for EST, the time periods that you see on the Best Time to Tweet tool refer to EST as well. 

# Connecting Your Social Accounts

{% hint style="info" %}
You can currently connect the Twitter accounts to Circleboom Twitter.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

The number of Twitter accounts you can connect depends on the plan you're subscribed to.&#x20;

# How to add mentions in your posts

You can tag/mention Facebook pages, Twitter and Instagram profiles while posting through Circleboom Publish.

Due to platforms' technical limitations, you cannot mention Facebook profiles and groups, Linkedin profiles when you schedule your posts via Circleboom Publish.

### **Tagging Facebook Pages**

To mention Facebook pages on your scheduled posts, you can start typing with **@** symbol and then the name of the Facebook page that you want to tag. After typing the first characters, we will also show you some matching results, and there you can select the page to be mentioned.

For better matching results, we advise you to search with the username of Facebook pages, as there might be multiple pages with the same name. You can find the usernames of Facebook pages when you look at their URL, like facebook.com/**circleboomcom**

{% hint style="warning" %}
You cannot mention pages from other platforms and Facebook pages simultaneously when you are scheduling your Facebook posts.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

### Mentioning on Twitter

To tag some accounts on Twitter, you can type **@** symbol and Twitter handle of the account that you would like to mention. In the post preview appearing on the right side, you will notice that a hyperlinked text will appear and you can visit that account by clicking on it.

![](<https://assets.circleboom.com/help-tool/publish-help/images/Screenshot 2022-01-04 at 20.23.17.png>)

### &#x20;Instagram mentions

You can mention Instagram profiles on your IG posts by typing @ symbol and their username, in a similar manner with Twitter and Facebook.&#x20;

Due to API limitations on Instagram, we cannot suggest you the list of accounts matching with your search; however, it will be enough to type full name starting with @ to hyperlink that account.

### LinkedIn Company Page Mentions

You can mention Instagram company mentions on your Instagram posts by typing @symbol and the company name.


# Scheduling a Twitter Thread via Circleboom Publish

When 280 characters are not enough to express your thoughts on Twitter, you can prepare a Twitter thread, where you create individual tweets and bind them together. 

To schedule a Twitter thread, you can use Circleboom Publish's specialized publish tool for Twitter threads: **Create Twitter Specific Post or Thread**. 

#### Step 1:  Choose the post type you need 
  
Log in to your Circleboom Publish account, and on the Dashboard, you will be offered two ways to schedule your Twitter posts. You can either create an individual Twitter post or "Create Twitter Specific Post or Thread." If you need more than a tweet to express yourself, you will use the latter.

![twitter-thread-maker-3.png](/uploads/twitter_thread_maker_3_ad6a12d643.png)


#### Step 2: Choose your Twitter account

On the next page, you need to choose a Twitter account among your connected accounts.

{% hint style="warning" %}
According to Twitter rules, you cannot simultaneously create posts for multiple accounts. For more information, please visit Twitter's related page: https://blog.twitter.com/developer/en_us/topics/tips/2018/automation-and-the-use-of-multiple-accounts
{% endhint %}

![twitter-thread-maker-4.png](/uploads/twitter_thread_maker_4_0165ef4fdd.png)

#### Step 3: Input your content and create your Twitter Thread 

You can start writing your thread from the first tweet, and once you are ready to move to the next tweet of the thread, you can add more tweets and make your Twitter thread by clicking on the 'Plus' (+) sign at the bottom right of the text board.
![twitter-thread-maker-5.png](/uploads/twitter_thread_maker_5_7a1b56a927.png)

If you are not happy with the content you created, you can delete all tweets in the thread through the 
*Delete this post* button. You can also save it as a draft and keep working on it later.

{% hint style="success" %}
Circleboom allows you to create Twitter threads longer than 25 tweets, which is the maximum number of tweets that you could add to your thread on Twitter.
{% endhint %}

#### Pro Tip: 

{% hint style="info" %}
Thanks to built-in tools Canva, Unsplash, and Giphy, users can create and design their images as they wish: https://help.circleboom.com/publish/feature/design-your-images-on-circleboom-design-tool

![twitter-thread-maker-6.png](/uploads/twitter_thread_maker_6_773b1f3461.png)


#### Step 4: Schedule your Thread once you are ready

* You changed passwords and the refresh token contains Gmail scopes.
* Your account has exceeded a maximum number of granted (live) refresh tokens.

**Step 5:** Select the social media accounts you want to post the articles. You can add them to your queue, schedule them for a specific time, or publish them immediately.

### Avoid certain keywords&#x20;

Your selected interest areas represent the sum of keywords that are related to that topic. Yet, we are aware of the fact that there could be some sub-components of your interest area that is not relevant for you. In these cases, you can simply disregard search results with one click.

Let's assume that you want to discover articles on energy, but you are not interested in receiving updates on the oil. To exclude results associated with oil, you can move your cursor over it, and click on **Avoid this topic**.&#x20;

# How to Convert Instagram Professional Creator Account to Professional Business Account

Since Instagram API allows scheduling services only for Professional Business accounts, you are kindly asked to convert to your Instagram account. This can be easily done with a few clicks on Instagram and you can always go back to a personal or creator account later.

{% hint style="warning" %}

Professional Creator accounts cannot be connected to Circleboom Publish due to Instagram´s own technical limitations. Therefore, please make sure that you select the **Professional Business** category.

If the Creator option is selected, you can't schedule your posts via Circleboom or any other third-party app.
{% endhint %}

![business_account.png](/uploads/business_account_71925def96.png)

If you still prefer to define yourself as a creator on Instagram rather than a business, don´t worry! When you switch from Professional Creator to the Professional Business account type on Instagram, you can still choose the "creator" subcategory under the Professional Business account.

To convert your Instagram account type from Professional Creator to Professional Business, you can follow the steps shown in the image below:

# Check Your Scheduled and Sent Items on Outbox

* filter your posts according to the social media platform you post on.
* filter your posts according to the social media accounts you post.

During the deletion process, if you have filtered by social media account, only posts belonging to the filtered accounts will be deleted.

# Posting Limits at a Glance

To prevent abuse and ensure service stability, all requests are rate limited by their respective platforms. Rate limits specify the maximum number of Post creations that can be made in a given period.

In addition to the below-listed limits, some platforms may enforce user-based limits. All these limits we posted below are generic limits announced by platforms, and they don't show any user-specific limits they might (not) enforce.


|             |          Twitter         |      Facebook      |                      Instagram                     |      Linkedin     |                    Pinterest                    |
|:-----------:|:------------------------:|:------------------:|:--------------------------------------------------:|:-----------------:|:-----------------------------------------------:|
| Post Limits | 200 posts per 15 minutes | 200 posts per hour | 25 posts per day, carousels count as a single post | 200 posts per day | 100 posts per minute, including boards and pins |

In addition to the Rate limits we documented above, platforms have set different policies regarding media and text you can use in your posts. Please visit our help page for more information on media and text limits of platforms:
{% content-url %}

##  I can't see all my Facebook and Instagram pages; what should I do?

If you’re unable to view all your Facebook pages, groups or Instagram business accounts, you can grant permission for them in your Facebook settings under Business Integration. 


Here’s a helpful animation that demonstrates how to do so:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vJdktczaxIk" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe>

- Ensure that Circleboom is listed as a third-party app in your Facebook Settings > Business Integration.
- After clicking ’Edit and Settings” to connect your Facebook pages, groups, or Instagram business accounts, please select the ‘Select All’ option in all sections of permissions.
- In the next step, you will be able to specify the actions and permissions that Circleboom can perform on the accounts you have selected.

# Scheduling Tweet Rules

{% hint style="info" %}
Twitter has taken additional action to keep Twitter free from spam. Specifically, they have introduced new rules around automation and the use of multiple accounts. We strongly recommend our users relying on Twitter policies regarding spamming and identical posting.
{% endhint %}

Spam has been an issue on Twitter for a long time, and you might recognize this common type of spam:

> A single account posting identical (or almost identical) tweets.

The Twitter Rules prohibit posting duplicative or substantially similar content — both on one account and across multiple accounts. **Twitter might suspend your account if you fail to comply.**

With the current [Twitter rules](https://blog.twitter.com/developer/en\_us/topics/tips/2018/automation-and-the-use-of-multiple-accounts.html), it would be best to avoid tweeting the same content. We would recommend modifying the text or multimedia whenever you want to re-use your top content.

# Why my profile picture is not shown?

We use platform-provided profile picture URLs on our tools. These platform-provided picture URLs expire when you update your picture on the platform, or get outdated based on some other reason.&#x20;

To update your profile picture, please visit your [Manage Social Media Accounts](https://publish.circleboom.com/settings/manage-accounts) page under Settings, and click on the Refresh Icon located on the upper right corner of the account listed on that page. This will get your recent profile picture from the social platform.


![refresh_pic.png](/uploads/refresh_pic_7dd45b0b73.png)

# Do you support personal Instagram accounts?

Instagram offers three account types in total for personal and professional users (business and creator profiles).&#x20;

Instagram currently prioritizes supporting the posting services for business accounts, and due to API limitations of Instagram, we cannot post on personal and creator accounts.&#x20;

However, you can easily change your profile into a business profile without any extra cost in a few seconds. Please visit our following help menu to convert your Instagram account with a few clicks:

{% content-url %}

# Why are images for my posts on Google My Business missing?

As opposed to other social platforms, GMB does not show images for your shared links, unless you explicitly add your images for the post.

When scheduling your posts for GMB, you will need to add an image to your post and otherwise, your content will be posted without any image. This is a restriction of GMB and link previews are not shown unless you add an image to your posts.

# What happens when an RSS feed is broken?

Our systems try to fetch the latest feed data from corresponding servers regularly. When a server gives an error we keep trying it 2 more times until we suspend the feed for 6 hours.

After 6 hours, our systems re-check the feed if it is working or not. If it works, we keep pulling data from it, and send posts based on the feed rules. If it fails again, we suspend the feed for another 6 hours before giving it a try.

Yet, you can easily switch your Instagram profile to a business account, where you can find various categories that describe you well, such as Digital Creator or blogger.
