Saved Twitter items are not just another option for saving those posts that interest you, they’re also the way you really should be. Because resorting to likes has implications that, perhaps, you did not know yet or had considered to what extent they compensate you or not. So we are going to tell you how to do it, despite being a function that has been with us for a long time.
What happens when you like on Twitter
Many Twitter users have and will continue to use Likes as a way to save posts that other users make and are interested in. It is not the ideal option, but it is a valid one to have in a kind of “list” with all those elements. In addition, it must be admitted that it is a much faster option than going around sharing the link to the original tweet through email or through third-party applications such as Pocket. So it is understood that it has become so popular.
However, using a Like for this has a number of implications that you had not considered before and may make you change your mind.
- When you like it, the user who has published receives the wrong feedback. Because your interest may be different from indicating that you liked what he published. And it is that saving something that interests you does not mean that you really like it
- Another problem with using likes is that you publicly expose what you like.
- Users who follow you can receive notifications of likes that you have given
Now that you know all this, you may have changed your mind and liking to save tweets is no longer interesting. Therefore, let’s see how the option to save everything that catches your attention and you want to keep for future consultation with Add Tweet to Saved Items works.
How to use Saved Items
Using the Saved Items feature is very simple and will only take a few taps or clicks on the screen in front of pressing just the Like icon. To do it you just have to perform the following actions:
- When you read a Tweet that interests you, click on the share icon
- In the window or floating menu that will open, you will see the option Add Tweet to Saved Items.
- Tap on that option and you will have it
Now that you have your tweets saved, how do you access them when you want to consult them. Well, practically the same way you did when accessing the items you liked.
If you are using the mobile applications, click on your profile photo to display a panel with access to all the options, from the Moments to the lists and also these Saved Items. Click on it and you will have access to all those tweets.
To remove one of these items, because you no longer need it, do the following. Press the share button again and now notice that instead of adding the option to delete appears. The moment you press it will disappear from the list.
