Can you change your Twitter or X account? Yes, you can change your Twitter handle at any time. Unlike Instagram, which limits you to only two changes every 14 days, Twitter has no limit on how often you can change your handle.
Your new username must be between 4 and 15 characters and can only use letters, numbers, and underscores. At the same time, each username is unique.
Please note: When changing your nickname, it is recommended that you notify your followers. This way, they can reply and send messages directly using your new handle.
