Every action leaves traces on social media. Some of them are more subtle than others, but some can be traceable.


Likes on Twitter are the ones that you can follow. When you like something on Twitter, other people can see your likes, whether they are your followers or not. So, we should be careful about what we like on Twitter because they can help to form our impressions in the eyes of others.


When will it be a problem? If you like a tweet in the very past, that doesn’t reflect your ideology, feelings, humor, thoughts, etc., now, people may be confused about you. This usually happens for political issues. Your political standing might have changed over time, and what you liked on Twitter doesn’t reflect your current opinions.


Also, worse can happen. Accidental likes can hurt your reputation. Liking a tweet is very simple. You can accidentally tap twice over a tweet, and it will be liked. Now, think that you liked explicit content on Twitter mistakenly. People who search your like history can see it, and they may reach a false assumption about you.


Therefore, our Twitter likes need to be thought about. You can check them from time to time. But obviously, it takes time. That’s why you should consider deleting your Twitter likes. You can mass delete your likes or utilize filters and remove them selectively.


Again, Twitter likes can be deleted on Twitter itself, but it needs time and effort. And Twitter doesn’t provide filters to search for specific likes. At this point, you need a third-party tool.


Circleboom Twitter shines bright like a diamond, among other options! It is a comprehensive Twitter management tool that helps you delete tweets/retweets/likes, get valuable statistics about your account, create Twitter lists, and do many other things.

Is there a Javascript code to delete your Twitter likes?

If you know how to use codes, you can delete your Twitter likes with a script. But I should let you know that it is confusing. You must be very sure and careful about what you are doing.


You can delete your Twitter likes through the browser using a script or a browser extension. However, be cautious while using scripts or extensions, as they could have access to your Twitter account which might lead to security issues. Here are two methods:

Using a Script in Chrome’s Debug Console:


  • Open Chrome and log in to your Twitter account.
  • Navigate to the ‘Likes’ section.
  • Press F12 to open Chrome’s debug console.
  • Click on the “Console” tab.
  • Copy and paste the following script into the console field: $('.ProfileTweet-actionButtonUndo.ProfileTweet-action-unfavorite').click();
  • Press Enter. The script will start unliking the tweets. You can check the result on your Twitter account, and repeat the process if necessary.


Note: These codes don’t always work. If you want to avoid broken codes, I recommend using Circleboom to delete likes on Twitter in bulk.

If you unlike a tweet, does it show?

No, removing your like from a tweet on Twitter does not cause it to be noticed by the user who posted it or appears in their notifications feed. You can like and unlike tweets from other users, but these actions are private and not visible to other people. Thus, if you choose to unlike a tweet, neither the tweet's original author nor any signal that you liked it beforehand will be made.


Can I make my likes private on Twitter?

It is not possible to make your favorites or likes secret on Twitter. This implies that anyone who visits your Twitter profile can see the tweets you have liked and your favorite tweets.


How to delete Twitter likes and keep some

How can you delete tweets by their like counts?

Why can’t I search for my likes on Twitter?

There are a few reasons why Twitter doesn't provide a direct search function for favorited tweets. First first, privacy issues probably have a significant impact. As Twitter is committed to protecting user data, allowing users to search their likes may expose sensitive or private information.


Additionally, there is a significant data difficulty due to the massive amount of tweets that millions of people enjoy every day. The platform's search engines give popular searches, hashtags, and current trends priority, and these frequently take precedence over specific past likes. Furthermore, because Twitter is real-time, it highlights recent material and everyday occurrences, which makes people more focused on the present than on previous interactions. This strategy fits Twitter's fast-paced, dynamic environment by promoting active participation with the newest content.


To put it briefly, although users looking for specific historical interactions may find it frustrating that there isn't a direct search function for liked tweets, this underscores Twitter's focus on privacy, real-time content, and data management. Users are advised to check Twitter's official resources or app updates for the latest changes on this feature, as social media networks often change and add new features.


But, if you are a Circleboomer, this is not a problem at all. You can easily search and sort your Twitter likes. You can search for likes by keywords, hashtags, and usernames. Also, you can apply filters and sort your tweets by like counts, retweet counts, etc.

I can't find tweets / X posts I liked in the past. Why?

There are a few reasons why it can be challenging to locate previously liked tweets or posts on social media sites like Twitter:


  1. Privacy settings significantly impact access. The liked posts may no longer be available if the content was from private accounts or access to such accounts is limited.

  2. Earlier likes may become buried on platforms with algorithmic feeds due to the continuous stream of fresh material, making it challenging to locate them without direct links.

  3. The original posts become inaccessible if they are removed by the user or for violating rules.


Platform restrictions can come into play; social media platforms may not have comprehensive search features for previous likes, making it challenging to find particular material.

Why do posts/tweets I've unliked still appear as liked on my X/Twitter account?

Suppose tweets or posts continue to appear liked on your social network account after being disliked. In that case, it may be because of platform faults, synchronization problems, caching, or technological difficulties. There could be a latency between your actions and the display updates due to caching and synchronization delays. Inconsistencies may also result from faulty or erratic internet connections when unliking content.


This issue may also be exacerbated by problems in third-party apps or the platform itself. Updating the app, cleaning the cache, ensuring you have a steady internet connection, and reporting the issue to the platform's support staff can all assist in fixing such problems.

If I accidentally liked a tweet and then unliked it, will it still appear on my follower’s timeline?

No, a tweet that you unintentionally liked and later disliked won't show up on the timelines of your followers. Your followers won't be able to see the activity when you, unlike a tweet, because your like is deleted. Your followers won't know that you unintentionally liked the tweet because it won't appear as a like in your activity stream. Therefore, after you've disliked a tweet, nobody in your network should be able to see it as a liked tweet.
