If you’ve received a notification saying, “We’ve added a temporary label to your account which may impact its reach,” don’t panic. This means your account has been shadowbanned on Twitter (now known as X).
Shadowbanning can occur for various reasons, such as:
- Liking, posting, replying, following/unfollowing, or retweeting too frequently
- Posting content that violates Twitter’s guidelines
To resolve this issue and remove the temporary label, follow these steps:
Solution 1: Request a review
- Select the “temporary label” notification
- Click “Request Review” to appeal
- Wait up to 72 hours for the label to be lifted
Solution 2: Contact Twitter support (X Premium subscribers only)
- Subscribe to X Premium
- Go to x.com/premium and select the direct message icon
- Send a message explaining the situation and requesting help
- Wait for a response from X Premium support
Solution 3: Wait it out
- In most cases, the temporary label will be removed automatically within 48 to 72 hours
- Minimize your actions on Twitter during this period
- If the label persists after 72 hours, you may need to wait longer
Remember, being proactive and addressing the issue promptly is key to restoring your account’s reach. By following these straightforward steps, you can efficiently navigate this challenging situation and get back to engaging with your audience on Twitter.
