The ability to unlike tweets from private accounts
Please give us an option to be able to unlike tweets from private accounts. Facebook have given their users an option to unlike posts from private accounts and posts from blocked accounts using the activity log. It does not violate anyone’s privacy as you cannot see the posts in your activity log, it just informs you that you liked a post and allows you to unlike it. I please request the same option to be available on Twitter. It takes a very long while to post all of your tweets and photos to a new account and try to figure…

GET statuses/likers/ids endpoint
Why don't we have the same kind of statuses/retweeters/ids endpoint but for likes, in order to get all the user ids who liked a particular tweet ?
11 votesThanks for the request & details. We don’t yet have plans to address this, but I have shared your request with the Product team for future consideration.

Support non-public metrics via OAuth 2.0 for the Labs v2 'Tweets and Users' endpoint
With API v2 (Labs v2) launching last week, it seems incredible that some endpoints still require the use of oAuth 1.0 which is scarcely supported. This makes developing for the 'next gen' API feel surprisingly primitive - and is an accessibility barrier that is unique in the sophisticated landscape of 2020.

Release from 3 day limit alert
Giving us an alert when we are off our 3 day limit, because you guys give us one when we’re put on it but not when released from it.

Add endpoints for muted keywords
We need a way to manage muted keywords, similar to the existing endpoints for muted users:

Build an API to create and retrieve Tweet threads
Tweet threads have become increasingly popular over the past few years. This API would enable developers to tap into the potential of threads by programmatically creating threads, as well as retrieving all Tweets in a thread.

Button to see poll result
Really often, people on Twitter define a choice on their poll just to let people not concerned see the result. Why not providing a simple button to let anybody see the result without having to choose an answer ?

Sharing GIF from Code on iOS
If I am not mistaken, GIF sharing on iOS is not working from the Gallery either. But my original request was for GIF sharing from code.
I found this great plugin for Unity to share images. The author also was having problems with sharing GIF on some apps. In my opinion it should be supported by the apps, as it is impossible to write a comprehensive adaptation for every app around. As the author was having issues with GIFs not showing he fixed it by converting to a UIImage -> this loses the animation of a GIF.

API to report abuse/inappropriate content
I suggest that the report features extend to API users. Report abuse is only available for individuals who get exposed to, click, and decide to report a tweet/account.
A lot of inappropriate content is unfortunately on twitter. Perhaps I could categorize into 4 types:
(1) inappropriate language: hate speech, harassment (bullying, sexual harassment)
(2) inappropriate image: pornography, graphic violence
(3) intention for inappropriate and harmful activities: intention to commit a crime (shooting, bomb, individual or mass threats), sell inappropriate products and services (prostitution, drugs - not debating if it is illegal or not, but I think twitter shouldn't be the…58 votes -
historize likes
Currently a like given by a user is not related to a date in the API.
Having this info can be useful to analyze the "likes activity" of a user on the past X days for example.1 vote -
The Moments Feature on Twitter
I loved the Moments feature on Twitter, it allowed me to organize my past tweets in a functional manner. There is nothing that really replaces it!!! Generally speaking, Twitter needs to offer users more options in terms of organizing their content. I vote to bring Moments back:)

Provide Users With More Options for Organization
Notifications appear in time order, which is fine. It can, however, become very disorganized quickly! This is particularly true when multiple users are replying. There are times when I don't want these messages, but there's no effective way to remove them. If one of the tweets in your notifications becomes popular, it can make finding other content a harrowing experience. (I've tried muting a user, the conversation and phrases, the messages still get through). There's a simple fix for these issues. First, give the user the option to delete a notice. Secondly, while notices can continue to be grouped in…

Allow access to DM group conversations via Twitter API
Currently we can access 1on1 DM via Twitter API but not group conversations. If we forcibly set the group's conversation_id, Twitter API returns forbidden. Allow this.

Bookmark Folders
The ‘bookmarks’ feature was an amazing addition, but many users have complained about how unorganized it can get. Many are pleading for the ‘folders’ feature to be added, so can they separate their save tweets based on preference. Adding this feature would make users’ experience on Twitter so much better.

Add Endpoint to get retweet with comment aka 'Quote tweet'
Create endpoint for get "quote tweets" by other to Tweets authored by the user. Like endpoint statuses/retweetsofme.
14 votesNote that you can now filter quote Tweets with Filtered stream in Labs using the `is:quote` operator: https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/labs/filtered-stream/operators
Combined with other operators, this is a first step towards what you are describing. -
Accept or deny follower requests (when tweets are protected)
It will be really useful to be able to accept/deny follower requests with Twitter API when tweets are protected.
This feature exists but currently this is not public.When I try to call this endpoint :
POST https://api.twitter.com/1.1/friendships/accept.json?user_id=<follower id>
I've received : {"errors":[{"code":37,"message":"Not authorized to use this endpoint."}]} - HTTP Code : 403
16 votesThanks for the feedback. This is most certainly something that we will be considering as we build the next generation of the Twitter API.

Twitter should provide more granular app permissions
Twitter currently offers three levels of app permissions: (1) read only; (2) read and write; (3) read, write and access Direct Messages. These options are not granular enough for some developers, and developers would like more options to choose from.
For example, an app’s “write” permission could be segmented into more granular options: (1) write access to a user’s profile; (2) write access to a user’s network (follow/unfollow, mute, block, list modification); (3) write access to a user’s timeline, including the permission to Tweet, Retweet, or like a post.
Another example includes Sign In With Twitter: there could be an…
