When someone shares one of your tweets on Twitter (now X) and includes their own thoughts or take, they've "quoted" your tweet. If you're using a computer, the quote tweet feature is now hidden in the "View post engagements" area. If you're using the X mobile app, you can still tap the tweet and then Quotes to see who quoted your tweet. This wikiHow article will teach you how to find a list of everyone who quoted your tweet on X, formerly Twitter.

Things You Should Know

  • The location of quote tweets has changed in the desktop version of Twitter (X). The mobile apps may also change in the future.
  • To see quote tweets on a computer, click the three dots on a tweet and select "View post engagements."
  • For now, on a phone or tablet, you can still tap a tweet and select "Quotes" to view quote tweets.
