Twitter adding new feature called ‘Unmentioning’ – to help leave unwanted conversations

This week, Twitter announced a new feature that is rolling out to users soon called ‘Unmentioning’. Pretty much it is what it sounds like, it’ll allow you to remove yourself from a conversation that you have been @mentioned in. You might want to remove yourself because you are getting too many notifications, someone has tagged you by accident or more.

If you have been @mentioned in a conversation and want to remove yourself, simply go to the mentions tab within the Twitter app and press “Leave this conversation”. The same can also be achieved by going to a tweet you have been mentioned in, press the three dots and select “Leave this conversation”.

Once you leave a conversation, there is no way to rejoin or undo this action. This feature started rolling out to users on Twitter for iOS earlier this week.
