Do you also feel frustrated when you wish to watch the recent tweets on your feed but end up watching the old ones? I get it. This is because your Twitter account is set to default “Home” mode.

Confused? Need not worry; here is the quickest way to show your Tweets. 

Show Tweets in Chronological Order 

The Twitter algorithm usually displays the top trending tweets so that you will get everything important happening in the world. This update came into force in 2016 to show “The Most Relevant” tweets first.

But now, people are much more updated and want to see the previous version of Twitter, which shows it’s a timeline based on the latest posts they were missing in the first place.

Recently, Twitter has updated its features in which the chronological order setting is no longer the default. But there is no guarantee that this update will be available in the future as it may change again. Thus, use this feature to your advantage before it’s too late.

You don’t need to beat around the bush; Twitter made this update for the convenience of its users. So that you can interchange between both versions is an advantage that Twitter has provided to its followers. Similar features were also found in other famous social media apps like Facebook or Instagram.
