are you looking to make your Twitter
profile just a bit more personal Twitter
has a lot of options you can use let's
take a look to get started you'll need
to navigate to your profile page in this
example I'm using the Twitter app for
iPhone so I'm going to select the me
button to open my profile page the
process should be pretty similar if
you're accessing Twitter from an Android
device or from a desktop web browser but
the option might be in a different place
for example on a web browser you'll
select the profile icon near the upper
right corner then choose view profile
from here select edit profile
your profile settings will appear and
from here you can choose or add a
different profile picture a header image
which is the large photo behind your
profile your name
location and if you want you can add a
little information about yourself in the
bio section
when you're done to save
we'd also like to show you some
important privacy settings that allow
you to control your experience on
Twitter to get started just navigate to
your settings from your profile page if
you're using a web browser you'll select
the profile icon near the upper right
corner but in the iPhone app we're going
to tap the gear then choose settings and
if you're on a mobile device you'll need
to choose the account you want to modify
here in the privacy section you'll see
the option to protect your tweets by
default everything you post on Twitter
is public which means that anyone can
see it even if you don't know who they
are if you want to control who can see
your tweets turn the setting on then
you'll be able to approve anyone who
requests to follow you on Twitter and
your tweets won't be shared publicly by
default Twitter can show you
advertisements based on the people you
follow if you'd prefer for Twitter not
to use your information in this way you
can turn this setting off when you're
finished select save or done to save
your changes okay that's all we've got
now you're ready to customize your
profile and protect your privacy on
Twitter
