Signing up through accounts

  • Via Google: If you have a Google account, you can use it to sign up for Twitter.
  • Via Apple ID: If you own an Apple device, you can sign up using your Apple ID. To do this, all you need to do is:
  1. Download the Twitter app or open the site in your browser.
  2. Click on the “Register” button.
  3. Select the option to sign up via Google or Apple ID.
  4. Enter the required data (name, password, etc.) and complete the process.

Register using virtual number

If standard phone registration is not suitable, you can use virtual numbers:

  1. Select a virtual number provider, e.g. HelperSMS, SMSFast, 365SMS, VAK-SMS, CheapSMS or SMS-Activate.
  2. Register on the website of the selected service and buy a virtual number (the cost starts from 10 rubles).
  3. Use this number to register on Twitter.
  4. After registration, it is recommended to link your mail to your account to avoid losing access.

Why you should not buy ready-made accounts

Many people offer to buy ready-made Twitter accounts, but this can lead to a number of problems:

Security issues: the previous owner can regain access to the account.

  • Risk of banning: Twitter's algorithms may notice anomalies related to the devices from which you log in and penalize you.
  • Need to change data: you will have to change passwords and link new data.

Output

To safely register and use Twitter, it is better to create an account yourself via Google or Apple ID, or use a virtual number to bypass the mandatory phone number.
