X (Twitter) Auto Cleaner, also listed as CleanMyX, is a 10,000-user X cleaner with date, keyword and engagement filters that runs in the background. wyper Social Cleanup covers X, Instagram and ChatGPT and keeps you in the tab while it works. The two disagree on what a cleanup tool should be, so the comparison is short and concrete.
X Auto Cleaner offers date, keyword and engagement filters, background runs and a CSV backup, all of which wyper lacks except the keyword filter. wyper Social Cleanup adds Instagram and ChatGPT, runs only while you watch, with storage and activeTab permissions, and shows a live counter and confirmation. Pick Auto Cleaner for fine-grained X filtering; pick wyper for several platforms with no account handoff.
Store figures from 15 September 2026. Auto Cleaner's features are taken from its Chrome Web Store listing; wyper's from the shipped code.

Auto Cleaner's listing promises runs in the background. That is convenient: start it, switch tabs, come back to a clean profile. wyper deliberately does the opposite. The tab stays open, the overlay shows a counter per category, and a 90-second pause protects against rate limits. You see every step, and you can stop it.
Neither approach is wrong. Background runs suit someone who has decided and wants it done. In-view runs suit someone who wants to watch what a tool does to their account before trusting it, which is the audience wyper is built for.
Filtering. Date, keyword and engagement filters together let you say "posts before 2022 with fewer than five likes that mention X". wyper can only do the keyword part. If your cleanup is that specific, Auto Cleaner is the tool, and the CSV backup means you keep a record of what went.
Breadth and restraint. The same extension cleans Instagram (including direct messages and comments) and ChatGPT conversations, and it asks for two permissions. Both tools say they run in the browser; wyper's permission list is short enough to read in one line, and there is no server that ever sees your session.
Who needs which: a power user pruning years of X activity by date and engagement takes Auto Cleaner. Someone who wants the run to happen unattended takes Auto Cleaner. Someone cleaning X, Instagram and ChatGPT in one sitting, or who wants to watch every deletion, takes wyper. Someone who needs a backup of content takes Auto Cleaner, because wyper keeps none.
Social Cleanup runs in your own tab with two permissions, shows a live counter and pauses for rate limits. Free for 50 removals a day.
