Read full description

Tweakr is a Safari extension that gives you real control over X. No bloat, no accounts, no tracking — just a focused set of tools for people who use the timeline as a workspace. PRESETS Switch between Minimal, Markets, Builders, and News modes in one tap. Each preset applies a tuned set of defaults so you don't hand-toggle every switch. COUNTRY & REGION FILTERS Block specific countries or regions from the For You timeline. Stack with content-focus bundles for tighter control over what shows up. FEED QUALITY Set minimum follower counts and account-age thresholds. Low-quality accounts stop flooding your feed. Accounts you follow always stay visible. TIMELINE CONTROLS • Lock to the Following tab — stop X from switching you back to For You • Sort Following chronologically • Control retweets and quote tweets separately • Hide the For You tab entirely CLEANER INTERFACE • Remove Grok, Premium, Jobs, and inline upsells from the sidebar • Hide view counts and engagement metrics • Restore headlines under external links • Adjust timeline density — Compact, Balanced, or Relaxed TWITTER BRANDING Bring back the bird logo, blue accent color, and "Tweet" language. LOCATION CONTEXT See country flags on tweets so you know where posts come from. PRIVACY FIRST All settings are stored locally on your device. Tweakr does not collect data, require an account, or phone home. Ever. Works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac with a single purchase.
