On Desktop
Open X in your favorite browser. Go to https://twitter.com/ in your computer's web browser. This will open your X feed if you're logged in. If you aren't signed into X, enter your username (or email address, or phone number) and password in the upper-right side of the page, then click Log in.
Click Profile in the left-hand menu. On the left side of the page, locate the Profile link. Click on it to view your profile and tweets.
Find the tweet that you want to track. Scroll down through your list of tweets until you find the one that you want to track. Tweets are listed in reverse chronological order, with the one exception being your pinned tweet at the top of your profile.
View the number of retweets. The number to the left of the Retweets icon below your tweet tells you how many people retweeted you. For example, if you see 34 Retweets below the tweet, your tweet has been retweeted by 34 accounts.
Click the tweet to view its details. To get a better idea of who retweeted your tweet, click anywhere on the text area of the tweet to open the Tweet detail page. From there, you can look more closely at retweets, quote tweets, likes, and other engagements on your tweet. Don't click the retweet icon, as it'll just prompt you to retweet yourself.
View the people who retweeted you. Click Retweets below your tweet's text to view a list of the people who retweeted your tweet. If there are any quote tweets, they will be listed separately. Click on Quote Tweets to view them.
View the tweet's overall activity. If you want to see how many Impressions your tweet earned, click the bar graph-shaped View Tweet activity icon below the tweet on the Tweet detail page, then look at the Impressions number to see how many times people viewed your tweet. Impressions refer to the number of times people viewed your retweet. This includes times that your tweet appeared in other people's feeds because of other accounts liking or retweeting the tweet. Since one person can view your tweet multiple times, the number of impressions doesn’t always reflect how many people saw your tweet.
Keep an eye on your notifications to spot new retweets. When someone retweets or quote tweets one of your tweets, you’ll get a notification. To review your notifications, go to the X home page and click the Notifications link in the menu on the left side of the page.

Review the number of retweets and quote tweets. The number to the left of the Retweets option will tell you how many people retweeted your tweet. For example, if 100 people retweeted this tweet, you'll see 100 Retweets below your tweet. If anyone quote tweeted your tweet, you’ll see Quote Tweets listed separately from Retweets.
View the people who retweeted the tweet. Tap Retweets below the tweet to bring up a list of people who have retweeted your tweet. Or, tap Quote Tweets to see who retweeted you along with any comments they've added. You can close this list by tapping the Back button in the top-left corner of the screen. It looks like an arrow pointing to the left.
Tap View Tweet activity. It's near the bar graph-shaped icon below the tweet itself. Doing so opens the Tweet activity page.
Check the "Impressions" number. Near the top of the page, you'll see an Impressions heading and a number. This refers to the number of times your tweet has been viewed. This page will also break down how many likes, retweets, comments, and other types of engagement your tweet has gotten.
