How to mute or disable Twitter Fleet in feeds

Twitter recently rolled out their latest feature "⚡️Fleets⚡️".

Fleets allow sharing personal in-the-moment thoughts with your followers free of public reactions, the Fleets disappear after 24 hours (thinking about WhatsApp's disappearing messages ? 😎).

Fleet authors can see who viewed the Fleet, including accounts with protected Tweets, by clicking into their Fleets and tapping on the Seen By text at the bottom.

This is how a fleet looks, a circle on top of the screen. Thinking of Instagram or Facebook Stories this time? 😎.

Twitter Fleets have received mixed reactions, with many bad reactions from users claiming it takes up too much space on the home screen and not something they liked.
If you are one among those unhappy Twitter users, here are steps to turn off the Twitter fleets.

⛏️ How to turn off and mute Twitter Fleets
