Tweet finder

Find a post on X (Twitter) by who wrote it, the words in it and when it was posted. The results show on this page, with no X account and no search operators to learn.

A username or profile link. Leave empty to search every account.

Any words you remember. All of them must appear.

Run it here

See the first 20 posts this search finds, without an X account.

About 21 credits for 20 posts, from your free Weir credits (5,000 a month, no card).

How to narrow a search

Start with the account and one distinctive word. Add dates only if you get too many results. The finder reads the first 20 posts X returns, newest first, or the most popular first if you switch the order. For filters this page does not have, such as minimum likes, language, or posts with video, use the advanced search builder, which runs its search the same way.

Looking for an account's very first post? The first tweet finder is built for that. For a post that was deleted, use the deleted tweet finder. To pull more than 20 results, or to run the same search every day, the guide to searching someone's tweets has a short script.

Questions

How do I find an old tweet?

Enter the account that posted it, one or two words you remember, and the dates it could have been posted between. Press Run this search and the matching posts appear with their dates, like counts and links. If you get nothing, drop a word or widen the dates: one wrong word hides the post.

Can I find a tweet by date?

Yes. Fill in On or after and On or before. Both days are included, and the days are counted in UTC. Leave the words empty to see everything an account posted in that range.

Can I find tweets without a Twitter account?

Yes. X's own search asks you to sign in. This tool runs the search through Weir, so you need a free Weir account (email or Google, no card), not an X account.

Can it find deleted tweets?

No. It searches posts that are public on X now. For a deleted post, the deleted tweet finder builds the Wayback Machine and archive links that may still hold a copy.

Why is a tweet I know exists missing?

X's search does not return every post. Posts from protected accounts are never shown, and X can leave out some posts from an account's results. Try the exact phrase, a narrower date range, or Most popular first.

What does a search cost?

About 21 credits for a page of 20 posts: 1 credit per post and 1 for the call, on Weir's free plan of 5,000 credits a month. A search that finds nothing costs 1 credit.
