Does X (Twitter) show who viewed your profile?

Short answer: no. X doesn't reveal who looks at your profile — to you, to Premium users, or through its API. Here's what you can actually see.

The short answer

X has no feature that shows who viewed your profile, and viewing someone else's profile is anonymous. That's true for free accounts and Premium subscribers alike. The data isn't available through X's API either — including to data providers like us — so no website or app can legitimately show it to you.

Interactions — likes, reposts, replies, quotes and follows — are the only place X ties an action to a named account. Passive views never are.

Why “profile viewer” apps don't work

Any service can only show data it can get. X doesn't publish profile-viewer identities anywhere, so apps promising a visitor list are either guessing (usually from who interacted with you recently) or collecting something else: your password, access to your account, or payment for nothing. Signs to watch for:

If you've already connected one, revoke it under Settings → Security and account access → Apps and sessions → Connected apps, then change your password.

FAQ

Can you see who viewed your X (Twitter) profile?

No. X does not show who looked at your profile — not to regular users, not to Premium subscribers, and not through its API. You can only see anonymous totals.

Does X tell someone when I look at their profile?

No. Viewing a profile or a post is anonymous. The owner may see the view count go up, but never who it was.

Can Premium subscribers see profile visitors?

Premium adds more analytics, but they are aggregate numbers (impressions, engagement, profile visit counts) — never a list of who visited.

What about apps that claim to show who viewed my profile?

They cannot get that data, because X doesn’t provide it. Most are after your login or account access. Don’t give them either; if you already did, revoke the app under Settings → Security and account access → Apps and sessions, and change your password.
