I wish I could search Twitter by email because I don’t know how Twitter handles most of the people I’ve worked with.
Well, your wish has come true because now you can search for different user accounts using their email address.
When you create a Twitter account, you must add an email address.
You are prompted to sync your contacts by email address while creating an account.
But usually, people deny this permission because they want to keep their personal life separate from their professional life.
But some users create the account only for professional purposes.
These users can take advantage of this option to search Twitter by email.
If you’ve given permission to sync contacts from your email, Twitter will show you information about people who have signed up for Twitter from your contact list.
You can take advantage of this list to add relevant people from your contact list.
Do I need to create a new account?
Some of you may think that you will now have to create a new account using your email address to access your contact list.
But it is not mandatory at all. You can simply change the settings from your existing Twitter account to Search Twitter by email.
With just a few simple steps, you’ll be able to find the accounts of individuals who are connected to you via email.
