Twitter Ad Eater
Twitter Ad Eater is a module for the Xposed/EdXPosed/LSPosed framework that attempts to remove ads from the Twitter Android application.
Installation
- Download the module from the Releases page.
- Install the APK.
- Open the LSPosed app.
- Enable the module and whitelist the Twitter app on the module page.
- Reboot the device.
Background
I created this module after switching to Android 11 where the original module does not seem to work anymore.
The module is tested so far only on Android 11 and with the LSPosed framework. Feel free to report any issues and I will take a look.
Implementation of this module is inspired by the Twitter AdKiller module but I decided to create my own module because... why not? :P
TODO
- Remove promoted trending topics/hashtags
- Remove the "moments" or "stories" section (or whatever it is called...) from the timeline to save space
- Try to find a more efficient way of filtering out promoted content, instead of hooking into the general
ViewGroup.addView
method - Filtering out Tweets by keywords
