Twitter Advanced Search Builder

Fill in the From and To dates (or type the operators yourself): since:2024-01-01 until:2024-02-01 finds posts on or after 1 January and before 1 February. until: is exclusive, so add a day to include the last date. Add from:handle to limit the search to one account, then open the query on X and switch to Latest to see them in order.

Use the "Old posts from an account between two dates" preset, put your handle in the From field, and set the date range, for example the whole of 2015. X keeps every public post since 2006 in search, so a query like from:yourname since:2015-01-01 until:2016-01-01 lists that year, oldest first if you pick Latest and scroll. To find one post, add a word you remember to the query. For a full download of your own posts, request your archive from X settings instead.

Yes, through the search URL. The X app has no advanced search form, but every operator works when typed into the app's search box, and the Open on X button here opens the finished query in the app or the mobile site. Build the search on your phone, tap Open on X, and the results appear; you can also copy the query and paste it into the app's search box.

Since July 2023 X shows search results only to logged-in accounts, so the results open in your own X session. This page never fetches anything from X; it builds the query and hands it to x.com. If you are logged out, X shows its sign-in prompt first and then the results.

from:handle finds posts the account sent, to:handle finds replies sent to it, and @handle finds every mention. The From, To, and Mentioning fields accept several handles at once and join them with OR, so (from:a OR from:b) searches both accounts in one query.

Set Replies and Reposts to Exclude, which adds -filter:replies -filter:retweets. Set either to Only to see just the replies or just the reposts. The same minus works on any operator: -filter:links drops posts with links, -#hashtag drops a hashtag.

Yes, on the web: min_faves:500, min_retweets:100, and min_replies:50 keep only posts above those counts, which is how the "Viral posts on a topic this month" preset works. These operators are web-search only; the official X API does not support them, so tools built on the API cannot filter by engagement.

Location search is gone: near:, within:, and geocode: return nothing since X dropped it, and so do source: and card_name:, which is why the builder leaves them out and the cheat-sheet marks them. Date search still reaches back to the first posts in 2006, as long as the account and posts are public.
