Download or archive Direct Messages

    Is there a way to save or download or archive my Twitter Direct Messages either through the Twitter website via a browser or via the iOS app?

    I have been going through various articles but they all seem to be out of date, as I can't find the "Request Archive" link, and the "Settings" link no longer contains the relevant links.

    Many thanks in advance.

    There's probaby an IFTTT applet to save a copy into a Google Drive spreadsheet or something similar.
    Have you used IFTTT before?

    The Request Archive button is there. I wonder if you just missed it. Go to Settings, it'll be under Account.

    It will take from a few minutes to a couple hours for your archive to be ready and emailed to you. To delete your tweets and DMS download Twitter Archive Eraser:

    It's a bit tricky to use, but you should be able to figure it out.
