What is a favorite?

Favorites, represented by a small star icon next to a Tweet, are most commonly used when users like a Tweet. Favoriting a Tweet can let the original poster know that you liked their Tweet, or you can save the Tweet for later. 

Where can I see my favorites? 

In your timeline:

  • In the upper right hand corner of the Tweet you favorited.

On your profile:

  • Click on Favorites in the left hand column. You will see a scrolling list of Tweets you've favorited.

Where can I see my Tweets that have been favorited?

  • When someone favorites one of your Tweets, it will appear under the Connect tab in Interactions.

Where can I see other users' favorites?

  • On their profile, click on Favorites in the left hand column, you will see a scrolling list of Tweets they've favorited.
Note: If a Tweet from a user with protected Tweets is marked as a favorite, only users who are approved followers of that user will be able to see that favorite in this list.
