Twitter Bookmarks is a feature that allows you to save Tweets for later reading or reference. It's like a personal library within Twitter, where you can organize and revisit Tweets that you find interesting, informative, or inspiring.

💡
PRO TIP: You may also consider downloading tweets for later reading, reference, or revisiting. Below is a tweet downloader for such purposes.

Understanding Twitter bookmarks: The basics

Twitter bookmarks are designed for personal organization and privacy. Bookmarks help you keep track of valuable information—like articles, media, or insights—without cluttering your profile or notifying others.

When you bookmark a tweet, it’s saved to a private list that only you can see. See more about that in the article below.
