Does not seem to filter tweets.

It used to be fantastic, but since Twitter updates, it no longer works at all. A real shame, I hope it can get back to being what it once was.


Makoto Kino August 13th, 2017

It doesn't work anymore. It won't filter any tweets like it used to due to the update being bugged.

The filter now no longer works at all on Twitter since the update to Twitter. Shame as it was really good. Hoping that the dev will fix this.

This extension is fully broken. Options is grayed out. It no longer serves any purpose.

As is typical in this day and age of software, it failed out of the box. Installed it. Refreshed Twitter page as per instructions. Options for the tool are greyed out. Uninstallation happened fairly soon thereafter.

Very useful, wish there is an option to filter only the tweets on homepage, and no filter for every other pages.

Instantly politics are out of my feed. Thank you so much!

If it didn't keep losing my list of filtered names it would be great. just lost my list of filtered names again. ARGH!

It works, but I strongly suggest saving your list of filters externally in case it resets itself and loses your entire filter list, because it will.


David Heroshi May 1st, 2016
David Heroshi

It would be perfect if only it didn't keep resetting itself. But now it's not even working at all even when I set the filters. This add on doesn't work for crap, I definitely do not recommend.


Rich Walker March 12th, 2016

For some reason this extension keeps resetting itself and I lose all of my filtered hash tags and keywords. I've tried the option to drag the settings to my bookmark bar to save them but that doesn't work.

Simple and easy to use.

Great extension. I do wish that it worked with Twitter's new (and incredibly unnecessary) quote/RT thing.

LOVE this extension! Saves me from having to see annoying local sports tweets. Feature request: allow the option to disable filtering on OWN tweets.

Words can not describe how much I love this extension. You have saved me from annoying baseball tweets. Thank you so much! Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU!

This extension is awesome! It does everything it's supposed to do. Perfect. Edit: It doesn't work anymore.

Not working at the moment, but great when it did


Rose Collins April 30th, 2014

Really, really great. Able to make sure I don't get triggered anywhere near as much by keywords or by mentions/RTs of people. I need more people to know of this.


Austin Jones March 13th, 2014

This is amazing! I have been saying there needs to be a filter for years and I have finally found it! No more #nerdstatus tweets! YES!

Kudos to Ricardo for his prompt fix of the issue with Twitter's recent changes. I've tried other filters, but this one is still the best!


Jay N February 25th, 2014

Great extension. I wish there were a hotkey to open it, or that it had a position:fixed interface so that I could add terms to the filter while I scroll.

It gets the basic job done.

I really, really, really wish it filtered search results like it used to. I'm grateful for it nonetheless.

Great filter which actually works (unlike about 90% of other Twitter filters). One big problem, though? If you have to sign out of your account for whatever reason, everything you've filtered so far goes *poof* and you have to start over from scratch.


Katrina Pascual July 24th, 2013

This is a great app. I like its function. However, I hope whenever I log off and on Twitter, the filters I placed would not remain. It didn't remember all the filters, I've already inputted. Also, I can't seem to figure out why one of my tweets is being filtered since it's just a link from tumblr and i didn't filter out tumblr. I hope the opentwitter filter settings are fixed since I can't seem to click on it and I want to know why one of my tweets is being filtered.


Steve Posnack May 27th, 2013

It works great at filtering crap from my timeline. However - the problem where the filter resets and we lose all our filter terms is a challenge. Any hope of it being fixed?


Blake Arledge May 19th, 2013

Have to reload the filter everytime I come back to Twitter.


A Google User May 14th, 2013

The "Enable" "Disable" button is kinda misleading. Please consider changing to a toggle bar (Enabled/Disabled) (On/Off) so that the current status and action upon click is more evident.

i don't know.. not working for me.. i insert few names that i only want to include.. it just loading..

Good news - works. Bad news - does not filter retweets from filtered users - only filters direct tweets.


David Larkin September 15th, 2012

Works well, and the filter menu relocation is good.


Todd George October 21st, 2012

One of the few extensions I've come across for this purpose that actually works as it says it does. Great for hiding those people who spend their weekends live-tweeting football games.


Mike Reynolds October 5th, 2012

I love this filter. To save your current filter set, drag the bookmarklet to your browser link bar. Click will reload that filter set. You can drag different filter sets so that essentially you have different "modes". Very cool. Otherwise I think you lose your filters when you close the browser. Love to see that Twitter results are dynamically filtered when you edit the filter. Thus, combined with the Twitter Search page, this makes for a powerful research tool.

I love this because it works REALLY well with not letting me see what I don't want to see, the only problem is every time I try to CHANGE my filtered words, add or take away, the twitter page just dims and nothing happens.


Scorpiobert September 27th, 2012

This extension was wonderful, now it has stopped working :( I'm dying on twitter. The elections are coming, pls fix. It lays a big dark overlay over the page, and you can't click on anything. so sad

I absolutely LOVED this app, it is one of the three I install on all my workstations. Then it stopped working. Please, for the love of Dog, please fix it; I feel myself slowly slipping into insanity.


A Google User September 21st, 2012

Doesn't work. Creates a black overlay over twitter website and makes it inaccessible. Not sure if this is due to conflict with other extensions, but that's the developer's problem.

Help me ! i can get it to work

Invaluable. I turned off "Obama" and "Romney" and the quality of my Twitter feed went up 100%


Mayo A September 13th, 2012

It hasn't been working for me lately hence the 3 stars. Did Chrome change something or Twitter did? Either way, please fix this extension, Mr. Open Tweet Developer.


Melly Moisley September 16th, 2012

Was working great until recently. Now it no longer blocks anything and the box to add/remove phrases from being blocked will no longer open. Tried to uninstall/reinstall and it did not fix anything.


Nate Opact September 16th, 2012

It was terrific until it stopped working. Pressing the filter button dims the screen and then it hangs there. The interface never shows up. I have to reload the tab in order to restore access to it.

This Extension Doesn't work on New Twitter Connect:(Interactions & Mentions), which is right where i need it, MUST Fix it to get higher Rating.


Yaro August 30th, 2012

Perfect, but there's something missing: I don't wanna filter myself out. It should give us a checkbox that says "don't filter my own tweets". I changed my 5 stars to 4 until that gets fixed.


Malkiel Saintly August 7th, 2012

I recommend this for anyone who wants to filter out any undesired words (such as profanity). It's easy to use.


Elliot Wake July 31st, 2012

Sorry, extension seems broken for me.


Lewis Dexter Litanzios July 11th, 2012

Broken for me? Anyone else? I'll edit my review rating if I can get it working again - just see an overlay and no modal?? Cheers,

This is simply perfect. I love how the app actively filters as you type, so you know it's working instantly.


German February 19th, 2012

Tiene muchas fallas, a veces impide la actualizacion de la lista de tweets y hay que: entrar, deshabilitarla, salir, bajar la pagina, volver a entrar y volver a habilitarla para que siga funcionando. Cumple su cometido pero es una tortura usarla. Have several bugs. sometimes freezes the tweet list refresh. It works but is very unconfortable to use.


Vladislav Perge January 12th, 2012
Vladislav Perge

Not bad, but it bugs out every time new twitter loads, as in, i have to edit filter in order to be applied else it will not detect stuff that needs to be filtered.


A Google User June 28th, 2011

Doesn't work with new twitter ui. :( Please fix asap!
