 If you've had an online presence for a long time, it might be a good idea to see what you've posted in the past and delete everything that you don't want out there. This is especially true if you're an activist, a journalist, a parent, or work for a company or non-profit that some people don't like. If you run a business, you might consider [providing this service to your employees](../cyd-for-teams/intro) as a benefit.

This way, other people can't take over your username and impersonate you, and you can leave your account with a message telling your followers where to find you.

 ## How Cyd Works
 
-Cyd is a desktop app for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Right now it lets you control your data on X, but more platforms are coming in the future, including Bluesky, Mastodon, and Facebook. It works like this:
+- **Install** — Get Cyd for Mobile (iOS/Android) for Bluesky, or Cyd for Desktop (Windows/macOS/Linux) for X.
+- **Login** — Connect your account.
+- **Back up** — Cyd saves a local, private copy of your data.
+- **Delete** — Tell Cyd exactly what you want removed. Sit back and watch as Cyd does exactly what you ask.
 
-- Install Cyd and open it on your computer.
-- Login to your X account.
-- Tell Cyd exactly what you want to delete from that account. Sit back and watch as Cyd does exactly what you ask of it. Cyd can delete your tweets, likes, bookmarks, and direct messages, and unfollow everyone.
-- If you want, tell Cyd to migrate your old tweets to Bluesky. Sit back and watch as Cyd does exactly what you ask of it.
+| | Cyd for Mobile (Bluesky) | Cyd for Desktop (X) |
+|---|---|---|
+| **What you can delete** | Posts, reposts, likes, chat messages, bookmarks; unfollow everyone | Tweets, likes, bookmarks, direct messages; unfollow everyone |
+| **Extra features** | Delete your data on a schedule to keep your account ephemeral | Migrate your old tweets to Bluesky |
 
 ## We Can't Access Your Accounts or Your Data
