Free, no uploads, no sign-up. Runs 100% in your browser.

How X (Twitter) Archive Viewer works

Your export is read inside this tab. Nothing is uploaded, no account or login is needed, and closing the tab clears it. tweets.js (and its numbered parts) is read by removing the window.YTD wrapper and parsing the JSON inside. Posts, replies and reposts are told apart, and hashtags, mentions and links come from the archive's own entity data.

Input: ZIP, JS, JSON. Output: CSV, MD.

How to use X (Twitter) Archive Viewer

  1. Request your archive in X settings, Your account, Download an archive.
  2. Drop the ZIP or data/tweets.js.
  3. Read the charts, search and filter your posts.
  4. Download every post as CSV or the shown posts as Markdown.

Tips

  • Exports hold your private messages, places and habits. Here they are read inside the tab and never uploaded.
  • Most services take from a few minutes to a few days to prepare an export, so ask early.
  • Keep the original ZIP. These tools never change it.

X (Twitter) Archive Viewer FAQ

How long does the archive take?
X usually prepares it within a day or two. You get a notification and an email with a link to download the ZIP.
Can it read likes and bookmarks?
It reads your posts from tweets.js. For other files in the archive, such as likes, use Data Export Explorer.
Are my files uploaded?
No. This tool runs entirely in your browser tab. Files are read from your disk into memory and the result is generated locally.
Is it free? Are there limits or watermarks?
Free and open source (MIT). There are no file-size caps, daily quotas, accounts or watermarks.
Does it work offline?
Yes, once the page (and any engine it needs) has loaded, it keeps working without a connection thanks to the service worker cache.
