X, formerly Twitter, aims to create a secure space for people to stay updated and share their thoughts safely. If you want to see all types of content, including sensitive content, you can turn the sensitive content setting off.
But if you’re using an iPhone, how do you turn off X (Twitter) sensitive content setting?
