How To Find Your Most Liked Tweet of All Time: Here’s What You Must Do
After reading the most liked tweets of all time, you’ll also want to see your post with the highest likes. How do you find this in your profile? There doesn’t seem to be a sort-by filter that arranges your tweets by engagement. The guide below explains how to find your most liked tweet of all time:
- Open Twitter and sign in to your social media profile on a desktop browser.
- Visit the following link in a new tab — www.x.com/search-advanced or www.twitter.com/search-advanced.
- You’ll see Twitter’s advanced search tool appear on your screen.
- Go to the Accounts section and enter your X username in the From These Accounts text field.
- Scroll and find the Engagement section and enter a high figure in Minimum Likes.
- Click the Search button, and X will show the results page.
- Left-click the Top tab and locate the post.
- If you can’t see the tweet, follow steps 2 – 5 again. This time, reduce the likes and see if you can find the post. Keep repeating steps 2 – 5 with a lower number until you locate the tweet.
The above method works well for desktop and mobile browsers. Unfortunately, Twitter’s advanced search features aren’t available on the app. However, you can use the following search operator in the search bar:
- (from:username) min_faves:y
Use your X handle in place of “username” and the number of likes instead of “y.” For example, (from:elonmusk) min_faves:1000000 will help you find Musk’s most popular tweet of all time.
