3. Monitor X accounts ​

Add the X (Twitter) accounts you want to track. Every time one of them publishes a post, you'll get a WhatsApp alert within seconds.

Step 1 — Open Subscriptions ​

From the left sidebar, click Subscriptions. You'll see the list of accounts you're currently monitoring (empty on a new account).

Subscriptions page

Step 2 — Add an X account ​

Fill in the form at the top of the page:

  1. @username — the X handle to monitor. You can paste it with or without the @. Examples:
    • elonmusk
    • @BBCBreaking
    • taylorswift13
  2. Send alerts to — pick which verified WhatsApp number receives alerts for this account. If you only have one number, it's selected automatically.
  3. Click Add.

Handle format

X handles are case-insensitive and allow letters, digits, and underscores. Up to 15 characters.

Step 3 — Confirmation ​

If the handle exists, it appears in your list within a second. You'll see:

  • The account's profile picture
  • Their display name and @handle
  • Which of your phones will receive alerts for them
  • An Active toggle
  • A Remove button

From this moment, any new post from that account triggers an alert to your WhatsApp.

Plan limits ​

Each tier has a maximum number of accounts you can monitor at the same time:

PlanMax accounts
Free1
Pro1
Pro+2
Business5
Enterprise50

If you reach your limit, the Add button is disabled until you either remove an account or upgrade. A counter at the top shows X/Y accounts used.

Managing subscriptions ​

Remove an account ​

Click Remove next to the account. You'll stop receiving alerts immediately. You can re-add it later at any time.

Pause without removing ​

Toggle the Active switch off. The subscription stays in your list but no alerts are sent. Toggle it back on when you want to resume.

Change the destination phone ​

You can't edit the destination phone directly — remove the subscription and re-add it with the new phone selected.

Troubleshooting ​

"X user not found"

  • Double-check the handle. Try without the @.
  • Private/protected accounts can't be monitored.
  • Suspended or deleted accounts return this error.

"Subscription limit reached"

"You need a verified WhatsApp number first"

  • Go to Phone Numbers and complete phone verification before adding subscriptions.

What's next ​

Subscriptions are set up. Now see what alerts look like on your phone.
