If while using Twitter you find yourself curious about the level of engagement your tweets are actually getting, you may want to take a closer look at your tweet analytics. The number of likes, retweets, or comments can only tell you so much about how your tweets are being received. But viewing your tweet analytics can give you a better idea of how well your tweets reach your audience.
To view your tweet analytics, you'll need to visit your account's Twitter Analytics dashboard, which will not only show your tweets' like and retweet statistics but also more detailed tweet metrics like impressions and account metrics such as follows and mentions. In this guide, we'll show you how to access your Twitter Analytics dashboard and individual tweet metrics. We'll also answer a few of your Twitter Analytics questions.
A web browser or the Twitter mobile app
The Twitter Analytics dashboard is a webpage that's updated every day and offers a wealth of information about your tweet activity and how other Twitter users respond to your tweets. When you first open the dashboard, you'll be presented with the Home tab, which shows a 28-day summary of your tweet activity and account metrics. The Analytics dashboard will show you recent trends such as how often you tweet, how many impressions your tweets have received, how many profile visits you've had, the number of mentions you've received, and your current number of followers (including whether or not these numbers have gone up or down recently).
As you scroll down the Home tab of your dashboard, you'll see monthly statistical summaries of your tweet activity. In these monthly summaries, the dashboard will actually highlight your best-performing tweets and mentions and show you who your top followers are. You'll also see more general statistics about your tweet and account activity.
If you click on the Tweets tab, you'll see a graph showing you the number of impressions your tweets earned over the course of a 28-day period. Impressions are the number of times your tweets were seen by other users. If you scroll down the Tweets tab, you'll see your individual tweets listed with the following metrics displayed for each tweet: impressions, engagements (number of times other users interact with your tweets via actions like clicks and likes), and engagement rate (which is the number of engagements divided by the number of impressions). You can also click on each tweet listed to see a more detailed Tweet Activity screen, which shows you a further breakdown of your engagements.
On the right side of the screen, you'll see the Engagements column, which shows you graphs of different metrics like engagement rate, link clicks, and replies.
Yes, for the most part, you don't have to have a special type of Twitter account to have access to the Twitter Analytics dashboard. Meaning, you don't have to have a blue-check account, and it doesn't seem to require a Twitter Blue subscription, either. Generally speaking, as long it meets the few basic requirements listed below, any free, regular Twitter account should be able to access the Twitter Analytics dashboard.
According to Twitter's help guide on the matter, these are the requirements for being able to use the Twitter Analytics dashboard:
You can access the full Twitter Analytics dashboard via Twitter's desktop website. Just follow the steps outlined below.
Step 1: Go to Twitter.com and log in to your account if you haven't already.
Step 2: Once you're logged in, select More.
Step 3: From the menu that appears, choose Analytics. Another browser tab should open and display your Twitter Analytics dashboard.
Unfortunately, the full Twitter Analytics dashboard isn't available in the mobile app. But while you can't view the Twitter Analytics dashboard on the mobile app, you can still view the analytics for each of your individual tweets. Here's how to do that:
Step 1: Open the mobile app and navigate to your desired tweet. It has to be a tweet you wrote (so either a regular tweet or a quote tweet you wrote).
Step 2: At the bottom of that tweet, where all of the other icons for retweets and likes reside, select the icon that looks like a bar graph (three vertical lines of varying heights). This will open a Tweet activity screen for that tweet.
Step 3: On the Tweet Activity screen, you'll see limited tweet engagement statistics such as number of impressions, number of engagements, and the number of new followers recieved from that tweet.
Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.
Instagram brings Reels and more to Apple TV
I have lost count of how many times I have gone to bed thinking I will finally sleep on time, only to somehow end up scrolling Instagram or X again. A few minutes turn into an hour, then another, and before I notice, it is 2 or 3 a.m. The next morning, I am usually annoyed with myself because I could have just slept and felt considerably better for the day ahead.
It is also a surprisingly hard habit to beat. Knowing you should put the phone down does not always help once it is already in your hand. Brick Night is a new gadget built around that exact problem. Instead of relying on you to remember to turn on an app blocker, it automatically restricts selected apps and websites when your phone enters your chosen sleep space during the hours you set.
WhatsApp’s scheduled messages are finally making their way onto the iPhone. We first saw the feature pop up way back in February 2026. Then, just last week, the feature became usable for select Android beta testers.
Now, it's arriving to the iPhone, with WhatsApp rolling out scheduled messages to some iOS beta testers running version 26.42.10.19 through TestFlight. The WABetaInfo report says that access will expand to additional testers over the coming weeks, although WhatsApp still hasn’t announced when everyone will get it.
