In this blog post, I will be introducing the Chrome Extension I built for Twitter. This extension allows you to view someone’s second-most-recent tweet when you hover over their name. This can be useful if someone has tweeted something that has become popular and has been retweeted a lot, making it difficult to see their other recent tweets.
I built this extension using JavaScript and HTML.

Chrome Extension For Twitter
Even though many companies know they should better leverage Twitter to promote their businesses, it isn’t always easy. If writing a dozen tweets a day, filtering a neverending stream of posts, and identifying high-quality followers on Twitter seem overwhelming, you’re not alone.
It’s not about how to pin a tweet or some basic things. Even though there are many tools that offer a variety of features to make Twitter more powerful for businesses, switching between browser windows and the apps can be cumbersome and time-consuming.
Thankfully, you can become more efficient by using a variety of Chrome extensions, which allow you to post, schedule, and manage your tweets on any webpage without leaving your browser window.
Top 5 Chrome Extension For Twitter
Here are some popular Chrome extensions that offer unique features for businesses to make the most out of their Twitter presence:
1. Twitter Tool
One of the best ways to reach a larger audience on Twitter is curating content and sharing links that are helpful and relevant to your target market, in the right place and at the right time.
This all-in-one Twitter tool allows you to quickly schedule tweets at optimal times so you can maximize your reach and engagement — directly from any web page on your Chrome browser without having to switch back-and-forth between another application.
In addition, the app uses AI to determine when your followers are most active on Twitter. You can then use the “best time” button to schedule your tweets based on the smart algorithms.
2. Chirp for Twitter
If you want to share a snippet that’s longer than Twitter’s 280 character limit, you can use this Chrome extension to quickly create a screenshot of the content.
Simply highlight the information you want to share and the app will create a screenshot image of the text. It will attach the image to a new tweet, along with the URL of the page, on which you can add your own comments before posting.
This app’s sidebar also allows you to manage your tweets so you can reply to comments and join conversations directly without leaving the page.
3. Tweetdeck by Twitter
For those who need to manage multiple Twitter profiles, Tweetdeck can make their lives a lot easier by allowing them to see the activities of all the accounts on one single dashboard.
Tweetdeck is a Chrome extension designed for marketers, social media managers, publishers, and power users to schedule tweets, manage conversations, and keep track of trending topics all in one place.
This app allows you to schedule tweets with images, create and share a timeline of Tweets using “Collections”, and customize your dashboard layout to see what matters most.
4. Twitter Detector
Whether you’re analyzing a competitor or researching a potential client, you should check out all their Twitter accounts.
This Chrome extension allows you to simply enter a URL and see all the Twitter accounts associated with that website.
You can also use Twitter Detector to explore a topic or follow an event and use the follow button right next to the results to start connecting with your audience.
5. QualiTweet
QualiTwitter allows you to find and interact with high-quality and relevant content on Twitter. Not only can you identify industry influencers but also interact with the content and increase your exposure to a high-quality audience.
Of course, the challenge is to find these tweets in your feed! QualiTweet makes this a lot easier by monitoring your timeline based on hashtags, usernames, keywords, and other criteria.
You can then “filter” these tweets to hide them, apply transparency effect, or highlight them so you can quickly sort through the information.
Conclusion
Twitter can be an invaluable tool for businesses to connect with prospects, customers, industry leaders, and influencers.
By using these Chrome extensions, you can manage your Twitter presence more cost-efficiently and build meaningful relationships on social media.
best twitter extension for chrome
Recently we talked about the best third-party tools for Twitter which lets you delete all the tweets at once, and gives you the option to check out who unfollowed you, etc. However, adding certain extensions to your Web browser can bring in features that apps cannot. Here are the best extensions you need as a Twitterati.
Best Chrome Extensions for Twitter
- Share on Twitter
Share On Twitter is the extension that I am using for years. This extension provides the option to select any text on Chrome and share it instantly on Twitter. It comes in handy while reading an article, news, or quotes, and wants to quickly share a passage on Twitter, without having to open it in a new tab. You can also click on the extension icon to share the webpage that you are currently on. Anyhow, once you click on the share option, you get the chance to edit the tweet before tweeting.
Install Share on Twitter
- Rite Tag
Rite Tag is a hashtag extension for both Instagram and Twitter. Once installed, the extension helps you to get hashtag suggestions for images and texts on any site. Comparing to sites like Hastagify, Rite Tag has an advantage as this integrates extension suggestions right into Twitter. Anyhow you need to log-in to Rite Tag and click on the Hashtag icon in the Tweet box to start showing suggestions. Rite Tag also has another trick up its sleeve as it can scan any image on the web and provide a tag for it. All you need to do is right-click on the image and click on the “Generate Hashtags” option.

- Chromnitweet
Chromnitweet is one of my favorite extensions on the list as it makes tweeting extremely easy. Just install the extension and type tw in the Omnibox, now you can just give space and start typing your tweet. Once you click on enter, your tweet will be posted on Twitter. There are no options, this is minimal that just gets the work done. If the extension not working properly, close the Chrome browser and re-open it after installing the extension.

- Omnibox Twitter
Omnibox Twitter is an add-on to Chromnitweet. Chromnitweet can tweet from Omnibox, adding Omnibox Twitter also enable the option to open Twitter accounts directly from Omnibox. Just type “@” and give space and type the user name, this will directly open the Twitter account of that username or opens the search name if it can’t find the exact user.

- Twitter Account Detector
Want to find the Twitter account of the website you are on, then Twitter Account Detector is an extension for you. It finds both the website’s main Twitter account and also the author’s Twitter account. It does a pretty good job of detecting the correct account, or else it suggests accounts that can be the closest accurate if it cannot.

- Superpowers for Twitter
As the name suggests this extension offers super power (read features) on Twitter. Once installed, you get options such as mass follow, mass unfollows, mass liking, mass retweeting, etc. Just open any followers, following, likes, retweets, search results pages and you will see a new option called “Follow all”. Clicking on it will follow all the users on that page. As following or unfollowing many people at the same time is not allowed by Twitter, this extension follows or unfollows all of them with a small pause in between. Also, remember that this extension will not work when you close the tab or opens any page. You need to leave the tab beside until it completes the task.

- Minimal Twitter
If you feel Twitter is a complicated mess, you can use this extension to removes the clutter such as Trends, news, who to follow sections from the sidebar. It also removes buttons like messages at the bottom right corner all the time. Additionally, you get options such as adjusting the width of the feed, removing the Tweet button at the bottom, etc. So, if you aren’t a fan of Twitter showing the trending news (which has nothing to do with your interests), now removing them is easy.
