Are you looking to make your Twitter
profile just a bit more personal?

00:00:04.660 --> 00:00:08.220
Twitter has a lot of options you can use. Let's take a look!

00:00:08.220 --> 00:00:13.980
To get started, you'll need to navigate your profile page. In this example I'm using the Twitter app for iPhone,

00:00:13.980 --> 00:00:19.039
so I'm going to select the Me
button to open my profile page.

00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:22.599
The process should be pretty similar
if you're accessing Twitter from an

00:00:22.599 --> 00:00:26.989
Android device or desktop web browser
but the option might be in a different

00:00:26.989 --> 00:00:32.279
place. For example, in a web browser, you''' select the Profile icon near the upper-right corner,

00:00:32.279 --> 00:00:40.599
then choose View profile, and then Edit profile.

00:00:41.020 --> 00:00:45.400
Your profile settings will appear, and
from here you can choose or a different

00:00:45.400 --> 00:00:47.040
profile picture,

00:00:47.040 --> 00:00:51.410
a header image, which is the large behind
your profile,

00:00:51.410 --> 00:00:54.100
your name and location,

00:00:54.100 --> 00:01:00.060
and if you want, you can add a little
information about yourself in the Bio section.

00:01:02.180 --> 00:01:04.600
When you're done, select Save.

00:01:05.180 --> 00:01:08.520
We'd also like to show you some
important privacy settings that allow

00:01:08.520 --> 00:01:11.350
you to control your experience on
Twitter.

00:01:11.350 --> 00:01:16.050
To get started, just navigate to the
settings from your profile page.

00:01:16.050 --> 00:01:20.880
if you are using a web browser, you will
select the Profile icon near the upper-right corner,

00:01:20.880 --> 00:01:24.600
but in the iPhone app we're
going to tap the Gear icon,

00:01:24.600 --> 00:01:26.780
then choose Settings.

00:01:26.780 --> 00:01:31.460
And if you're on a mobile device ,you'll
need to choose the account you want to modify.

00:01:32.980 --> 00:01:37.120
Here in the privacy section you'll see
the option to Protect your tweets.

00:01:37.360 --> 00:01:43.600
By default, everything you post on Twitter is public, which means that anyone can see it,

00:01:43.610 --> 00:01:47.470
even if you don't know who they are. iIf you want to control who can see your tweets,

00:01:47.470 --> 00:01:49.659
turn this settin On.

00:01:49.659 --> 00:01:53.700
Then, you'll be able to approve anyone
who requests to follow you on Twitter

00:01:53.700 --> 00:01:56.810
and your tweets won't be shared publicly.

00:01:56.810 --> 00:02:00.420
By default, Twitter can show you
advertisements based on the people you

00:02:00.420 --> 00:02:05.119
follow. If you'd prefer for Twitter not to
use your information in this way you can

00:02:05.119 --> 00:02:07.110
turn this off.

00:02:07.110 --> 00:02:13.140
When you're finished, select Save or Done
to save your changes.

00:02:13.140 --> 00:02:18.430
Ok! That's all we've got! Now you're ready
to customize your profile and protect

00:02:18.430 --> 00:02:19.569
your privacy on Twitter.
