Rewind for X

See the posts your timeline just replaced

X refreshes Home and the post you were halfway through is gone. Rewind for X keeps every post you've seen, right in your browser.

The Recently seen drawer open beside the X home timeline

Kept as you scroll

Once half a post has been on screen, its author, text, images, quoted post and link are saved. Ads are skipped.

One key away

Open the drawer from the button above X's own, the toolbar icon or Alt Shift R. Newest first, grouped by when you saw them.

Opens in a new tab

Click a post to read it on X without refreshing Home and losing your place again.

Search everything

Find a post by author, @handle, any word in it, or the text inside its images.

Filter by kind

Matches X

Follows X's light, dim and dark themes, on desktop and narrow windows alike.

Your history stays on your device
