How to Bookmark a Tweet on X (Twitter) on Any Device

To bookmark a tweet on X (formerly Twitter), open the post and select the Bookmark icon. If that icon is not visible, tap or click Share and choose Add post to Bookmarks. You can find saved posts later in the Bookmarks section of your X account. Your bookmark list is private.

X now calls tweets “posts,” but bookmarking works for the same kind of content: useful threads, articles, videos, and updates you want to revisit without liking or reposting them. The exact control can vary between iPhone, Android, and the website.

How to bookmark a tweet on iPhone

  1. Open the X app, sign in, and find the post in your For you or Following feed, search results, or an account’s profile.
  2. Tap the post to open its details. Look for the bookmark-shaped icon among the actions below it.
  3. Tap Bookmark. X should show a confirmation that the post has been saved.

How to bookmark a tweet on Android

  1. Open the X app and locate the post you want to save.
  2. Tap its Share icon (the arrow-style sharing control). If your version instead shows a dedicated bookmark icon, you can use that.
  3. Choose Add post to Bookmarks from the menu and look for the save confirmation.

These alternate paths matter because X’s own help pages describe both the dedicated icon and the Share-menu method. You do not need to publish the post or send it to another person to bookmark it.

Where to find your saved tweets on mobile

  1. Open X and tap your profile picture or open the main navigation menu.
  2. Select Bookmarks to see your saved posts in one place.
  3. Tap any saved post to open it again. If you use multiple X accounts, make sure you are signed into the account where you saved it.

Bookmarks belong to your X account, not just the phone on which you tapped Save. They are different from Likes, which are a separate interaction, and from Lists, which group accounts rather than acting as a private reading queue.

How to bookmark a tweet on the X website

  1. Visit x.com and sign in.
  2. Find the post you want. Open it and look for a bookmark icon, or click the Share icon below the post.
  3. If the Share menu opens, choose Add post to Bookmarks. The saved post should then appear in your account’s Bookmarks.

Do not confuse the Share icon with Repost: bookmarking saves a private reference for yourself and does not repost the content to your followers.

How to view bookmarked posts on a computer

On the X website, select Bookmarks in the left navigation sidebar. If the sidebar is collapsed, expand the navigation or check under More. Your saved posts appear in a separate timeline. Clicking one takes you back to that post, provided it is still accessible to your account.

How to remove a bookmark

Saving a post is reversible. To remove one bookmark, open the post from your Bookmarks page and select the active bookmark icon, or use Share → Remove post from Bookmarks on versions that show the Share menu. The post disappears from your saved list; you are not deleting the author’s post.

To clear your entire list, open Bookmarks and look for the More (three-dot) menu at the top. X documents a remove-all option there. Use it carefully: it is meant to clear your saved list, not just one item.

Are X bookmarks private?

Yes. According to the official X Bookmarks guide, other people cannot open your personal bookmark list. X may show a post’s total bookmark count, but that number does not identify which accounts saved it. See X’s bookmark-count explanation for the distinction.

A bookmark is not a permanent copy. If the original post is deleted, the author changes who can view it, or your account loses access, the content may no longer be available when you return to it.

Can you organize bookmarks into folders?

Yes, but Bookmark Folders are a Premium feature, not a requirement for ordinary bookmarking. X says Premium members can create folders and add saved posts to them. A post can remain in All Bookmarks even after you remove it from a particular folder. For current folder controls, see X’s Premium how-to guide.

What if the Bookmark option is missing?

  • Open the post itself: a collapsed feed view may show different controls from the post-detail page.
  • Check Share: on some web and Android layouts, the bookmarking command is in that menu.
  • Confirm your account: sign in and verify you have not switched accounts if your saved list seems empty.
  • Refresh or update X: app and website layouts change, so a recent version may place the command differently.

For the device-specific alternatives, X also documents the process in its timeline help guide. In most cases, the quickest solution is simply to open the post and check both the Bookmark and Share controls.
