Find and search them in X

  1. Open Bookmarks

    Tap Profile menu, then Bookmarks.

    On the web, Bookmarks is in the left sidebar. In the app, open the profile menu and tap Bookmarks.

  2. Use the search box

    Tap Bookmarks, then Search bookmarks.

    Type a word and X lists the bookmarks that contain it. The search box is on the web and on iPhone.

  3. Sort them into folders

    Bookmark folders need X Premium. You bookmark a post first, then add it to a folder. Folders are private, and taking a post out of a folder keeps the bookmark.

What X Bookmarks can and can't do

Search needs the exact word
X's search finds the words the post used. If you remember the idea but not the wording, it comes back empty.
Folders are a Premium feature
Without Premium, every bookmark sits in one list. With it, you file them by hand.Source: X Premium
No date or author filter
Search matches keywords only. You can't narrow your bookmarks by date or by who wrote the post.

Search by meaning, across X and everything else

X's search is good at exact words. SavedIt adds search by meaning, and it searches your X posts together with the Reels, TikToks, videos and articles you saved.

  1. Save a post as you read it

    Tap Share, then SavedIt.

    On any post, tap Share, then SavedIt. You stay in your timeline while it saves.

  2. Skim the key points

    SavedIt reads the post and writes the key points, so a long post becomes a few lines you can scan before you decide to reopen it.

  3. Search by what you remember

    Type the exact words and SavedIt finds them first. No match? One tap searches by meaning, so "that thread about cold emails" still finds it.

    Here "orange gates" finds the Kyoto video by what's said in it. Plus searches by meaning without a monthly limit.
