Twitter now shows you view counts for each tweet. Here’s how it works

Twitter Support announced that you can now look at view counts for each tweet. But if you’re a Twitter user, you’ve likely noticed the change rightaway—as it shows up on every new tweet on your feed.

“Replied and likes don’t tell the whole story. We’re making it easier to tell just how many people have seen your tweets with the addition of view counts, shown right next to likes,” wrote Twitter Support.

In their announcement tweet, you’re able to see the amount of views along with the number of retweets, quote tweets, and likes. Previously, you were only able to see the latter three.

However, Twitter explains that there are several tweets that do not have view counts. They include community tweets, Twitter Circle tweets, and older tweets. It also “may take up to a minute after a Tweet is posted for the count to show”.

To count as a view, a Twitter user only needs to just “view” a tweet. This means that it will count if you look at a tweet via Home, Search, Profiles, Tweets embedded in articles, and others, according to the platform.

They also mention that a view also counts if the author looks at their own tweet. And you can look at your own tweet multiple times and it would still count, as “not all views are unique”.

“For example, you could look at a Tweet on web and then on your phone, and that would count as two views,” continued Twitter.

Previously, Twitter head Elon Musk said that he has agreed to resign as Twitter CEO as soon as he finds “someone foolish enough to take the job”. He continued saying after that, he will “just run the software & servers teams”.
