Twitter is a microblogging network that has existed for several years among users, both on Android, iOS and PCs. For this reason, netizens often try to search for posts that were made years ago or old tweets that were shared by some of their friends.
Although the social network has a general search engine, it also has a more specific search system. How does it work? Infobae will explain this in the following paragraphs.
The 'Advanced Search' on Twitter
The best way to find a tweet is to use Advanced Search. With this tool you can search and find any publication. Simply refine your search using the available filters.
- From the web
If we use the search engine from the web, you can see how the results of Featured Videos, Most Recent, People, Photos or Videos appear.
However, if you click on the three horizontal dots on the right side of the bar, you can configure an advanced search with all the filters offered by the application.
- From Android or iPhone
In this case you have to enter and get the different results of Featured, Last, Person, Photo and Video.
Just as it happens on the web, you can click More Options, then Search Settings to allow the user to hide published content that may offend the sensitivity of certain people and delete blocked and muted accounts.
Once inside, you can filter by word, account, interaction, date and other filters. Using a single filter can result in a failed search. So the best option is to look for mixing them:
Words
- All words: Tweets containing all the words entered will be searched.
- Exact phrase: Tweets containing the entered phrase will be searched.
- Any of these words: Tweets containing one or all of the words entered will be searched.
- None of these words: Tweets in which none of the selected words appear will be searched.
- Hashtags: Tweets containing the written tags will be searched.
- Language: Tweets written in the selected language will be searched, by default it will take into account all languages.
Accounts
- From these accounts: Tweets sent from the selected accounts will be searched.
- To these accounts: Tweets that have replied to the selected accounts will be searched.
- Mention of these accounts: Tweets that mention the selected accounts will be searched.
Interaction
- Minimum of words: you can indicate how many responses are required for the tweets to be displayed.
- Minimum 'likes': you can indicate how many likes are required for the tweets to be displayed.
- Minimum 'retweets': you can indicate how many 'retweets' are required for the tweets to be displayed.
Dates
- You can filter tweets according to the dates on which they were published.
Other filters
- You can filter tweets by whether they have had replies or not.
- You can filter your tweets by whether you have added a link or not.
This is how you can create GIFs on Twitter from the iOS operating system
As published through Twitter Support, to create a GIF you simply have to tap the camera icon and access the GIF option, which is displayed next to traditional video capture and recording.
Once created, the user can preview it to verify that the final result is the desired one; if so, it can be inserted directly into the tweet or reply. Otherwise and if you are not convinced with the final version, it can be done again.
