How to Install Twitter (X) on FireStick [2 Methods, 2024]

Twitter (X) is a widely-used social media platform that allows users to share short messages, known as tweets (text, images, videos, and links).

Users can follow others to see their tweets in a personalized feed and interact through likes, retweets, and replies.

While signing up and tweeting is free, the platform offers a paid subscription service called Twitter Blue that provides features like an undo button for tweets, bookmark folders, and a reader mode.

Twitter is available worldwide, but it faces restrictions in some countries due to government regulations. So if you live in a country where Twitter is banned, be sure to use a VPN. ExpressVPN is our #1 choice.
