X introduced a new feature that allows users to check an account’s location.

It shows where the account is based in and the country where the app was downloaded on.

For example, if you’re currently in the US, it will say that your account is based in the United States.

Which country you downloaded the app from will also be stated (e.g. Connected via United States App Store).

In this quick guide, you’ll learn how to check an account’s or profile’s location or country on X (formerly known as Twitter).
