  • look for some Tweet that is not to your liking at your start.
  • Press the three points located on the right side of the Tweet.

    • Mute @User: Select if you don’t want to see any Tweets from this person on your home.
    • Block @User: select if you do not want to have any type of interaction with this person in any way.
