X Unfollower

Overview

X Unfollower is a Google Chrome extension designed for X (formerly Twitter) users, focused on solving the pain points of bloated follow lists and the accumulation of bot accounts and low-quality accounts. Through smart filtering and batch operations, users can quickly identify and clean up accounts that are inactive, have small follower counts, or are followed one-way, keeping their social network clean and efficient.

The plugin is deeply integrated into the X web client. Users simply click the "Open X Unfollower" button on their own profile or another user's profile to launch the control panel. It supports setting a maximum inactivity period (in days) and a minimum follower threshold, and you can check an option to protect mutual follows from accidental removal. Multiple filtering dimensions can be freely combined to precisely target users you want to unfollow.

In terms of operation, X Unfollower offers two modes: "one-click batch unfollow" and "manual one-by-one unfollow". This allows you to efficiently handle large-scale cleanups while retaining human judgment for key accounts. In addition, the reverse smart follow feature works the same way, letting you batch-follow high-quality target accounts using the same filter criteria.

Whether you are a content creator looking to reshape your personal social image or a marketer seeking to precisely manage a follower matrix, X Unfollower significantly reduces management costs and lets you save time for interactions that truly matter.
