Description from store ThreadHelper for Twitter™: More recall, less tabs. ThreadHelper is the Twitter extension that finds the tweets you need. ThreadHelper augments your Twitter experience by ambiently, automatically and instantly, finding the tweets you need. How? 🌟 Instantaneous Full-text Search ThreadHelper substitutes Twitter stock search bar with its own interface and search algorithm. As you type a new tweet it will, automatically and instantly, comb through yout tweets to find the ones most relevant to what you want to talk about at the moment, and present them to you on the sidebar widget. ⚙️ Full search customization The algorithm is fully controlled by you. It can search over any combination of your past tweets, retweets, bookmarks, and replies. Maybe you’d like to include the tweets of your alts in those searches. Or maybe not. That’s also under your control. 🎮 Complete Control Interact with sidebar tweets like with any other: reply, retweet, quote-tweet, and like, all directly from the side bar. You can copy and paste their url onto the tweet you’re currently composing to quote-tweet it, all without ever having to open a new tab. 💎 Search directly from the sidebar ThreadHelper makes it that never need to open a new Twitter tab again, making your experience smoother than ever before. ThreadHelper shines when you don’t even know which tweet you need and it manages to find exactly that one. However, sometimes, you do know what tweet you’re looking for. For those times you can search the whole of Twitter, directly from the ThreadHelper sidebar. You can interact with those search results the way you can interact with any tweet, never having to open a new tab, and never having to leave the page you’re on. ⌨️ Search commands Because ThreadHelpers search bar results come from Twitter’s API, you can use all Twitter API search commands, directly on the sidebar, just as you could if you were using Twitter’s native search. 🛳 Smoother experience If you open a tweet, TH will show you all of its quote tweets, sorted by popularity. This way you don’t need to navigate away. 🎯 Contextual navigation Twitter can be a bit of a maze sometimes. To help with that, whenever you open a tweet, ThreadHelper automatically searches and presents tweets that are related to the one you’re seeing at the moment, allowing you to better contextualize it, avoiding context collapse. 👾 Serendipity engine Sometimes the timeline is boring and you just wanna see new stuff. ThreadHelper has a ‘shuffle tweets’ toggle which, if selected, will make it so that by default ThreadHelper shows you a random selection of tweets. This way you can have two timelines for the space of one. (You can also set it off so that it doesn’t do that, if you find one timeline to be more than enough.) Your data, safe 🕵️‍♀️ All ThreadHelper does is run searches in your browser. It never uploads any of your information anywhere besides Twitter. As the creators of this extension, we never see or receive any of your data. ThreadHelper also prompts you to download an archive of your data on your local machine, so that the data you’ve produced on Twitter stays yours forever. --- This extension is a third-party product and is not officially created by, related to, or endorsed by Twitter™.

  • (2021-05-31) Phil Filippak: ThreadHelper totally rocks. To cite my own tweet, "it feels like a shortcut to a couple of extra dimensions. I'm super powerful" which is absolutely true.
  • (2021-03-25) Emerson Spartz: I only use a handful of Chrome apps and this is one of them. It's definitely had an impact on how I use Twitter!
  • (2021-03-20) This is a revolutionary change in how twitter works, if you want it to be, once again (same as hashtags, same as @ replies, same as threads themselves!) thought up by someone who loves twitter and is not working inside the company that runs twitter terribly and uses it to dodge taxes and keep the poor poor. THANK YOU to the devs for the serendipitous magic that is threadhelper! <3
  • (2020-12-21) Cameron Blandford: Maybe the coolest feature I've seen in chrome extension to date.
  • (2020-12-12) Lucca Hellriegel: Fast, fluid search of all my relevant tweets makes it easy to connect my current thinking to my past ideas. If you want to use twitter for threading, then this is invaluable.
  • (2020-12-10) Rishad Haque: been using it for a while now, perfect for how I use Twitter
  • (2020-12-08) Palash Karia: Very useful for random slices of serendipity while tweeting!
  • (2020-11-26) Tyler Alterman: Has changed the way I use Twitter
  • (2020-11-18) Satya Narayan: So many things good about ThreadHelper. Brings a constant pleasure seeing some of my previous thoughts, while framing new thoughts. Increases serendipitous thoughts and discovery. Makes my twitter bookmarks much more useful. And helps create more threads, more ideas.. Highly recommended the product.
  • (2020-10-28) Benjamin Mosior: This is fantastic. Not only does it offer cool prompts with tweets I've written (which, let's face it, I was constantly searching for before), but it also hides the terrible twitter trends from sight — an unexpected but welcome benefit.
  • (2020-10-22) Cool!! Finally someone thought about this, tired of scroll down my tweets! Nice work
  • (2020-10-20) Matt Brockwell: The lightning-quick resurfacing of any related tweet you have EVER written on any topic, based on the text you type into the new thread composer window, is stunning. Bottom line is if you take the time to figure out to use this, it can revolutionize your use of Twitter and turn it from a place where you scribble short notes that surface, get liked, and then forgotten into a superpowered Zettelkasten longform writing and note-taking engine where you can compose epics of poetry and prose if you are so inclined. Seriously this has the power to make Twitter into a whole new app. Check out Visakan Veerasamy on Twitter if you are new to the "power of threads". (for those using Roam, here's the metaphor: @RoamResearch block-autocomplete, but for Twitter.)
  • (2020-10-13) Brian Toh: Now I can shitpost with ease!
  • (2020-07-19) Gary Basin: Much threads. Great helper.

  • (2020-12-20, v:0.2.2.0) Damiel T.: Amazing extension but doesn't work with other languages.
    The search doesn't work when I type in russian, only works when typing in english. Amazing app otherwise, but can't use it most of the time since I tweet mostly in russian. Can you solve this problem and add multilingual search or at least option to choose between languages? P.S.: I _REALLY_ love the extension, it's amazingly useful, thank you.
