How to open Twitter account when you already have one?

If you want to create a second account on Twitter, the process is slightly different in the app versus on the web as you are going to open another when you own one already.

Open the Twitter app and sign in with your existing account. On an iPhone, tap the hamburger menu in the upper left and tap the three-dot Profile icon. On an iPad, tap the More icon and then tap the Profile icon.

If you’re on an Android device, tap the profile icon in the upper left and then tap the down arrow. Tap Create a new account.

Twitter will take you through the account setup process and request the same information it does when creating your first account.

You can tap Add an existing account to link your second existing Twitter account to your phone. Once you sign in, you should see multiple accounts listed in the app.

Unlike the app, Twitter on the web will only let you add an existing account. If you need to create a new account, you will have to log out and create it first.

You can add an existing account by clicking the three-dot icon next to your display name in the bottom-left corner. Click Add an existing account and sign into that account.
