How to DM on Twitter

Twitter is a social media platform that allows users to share short messages, or "tweets," with their followers. In addition to tweeting, users can also send direct messages (DMs) to other users. DMs are private messages that are only visible to the sender and recipient.

There are two ways to send a DM on Twitter:

1. Through the Twitter website:

   • Go to the profile of the user you want to DM.
   • Click the "Message" button.
   • Type your message in the text box and click "Send."

2. Through the Twitter app:

   • Open the Twitter app and tap the "Messages" icon.
   • Tap the "New Message" button.
   • Enter the username of the user you want to DM.
   • Type your message in the text box and tap "Send."

Who can you DM on Twitter?

You can DM any user on Twitter, even if you don’t follow them. However, the recipient must have their DMs open in order to receive your message.

How to check if a user’s DMs are open:

To check if a user’s DMs are open, go to their profile and click the "Message" button. If the button is grayed out, then the user’s DMs are closed.

What are the rules for sending DMs on Twitter?

• You must not send DMs that contain spam or malware.

If you violate any of these rules, Twitter may take action against your account, including suspending or banning you.

How to block someone from DMing you:
