Bring Twitter Back Firefox

Bring Twitter Back

Turns X back to Twitter by replacing all instances of the logo, replacing the new names ("post," "repost," etc.) with their old ones, and replacing the "X" name with "Twitter" on tabs and on the website.

Features & Capabilities

Bring Twitter Back Chrome Extension

Bring Twitter Back transforms the new "X" interface back into the classic Twitter experience you know and love. It replaces every instance of the "X" logo with the familiar blue bird icon, reverts changed button texts like "post" and "repost" to their original labels, and updates browser tabs to show "Twitter" instead of "X". Additionally, the extension detects notifications and dynamically updates the tab icon to reflect your unread notifications.

Say goodbye to "X" and welcome back your favorite Twitter design with this simple, user-friendly extension. It's perfect for users who miss the iconic look and feel of Twitter and want a seamless browsing experience without the recent branding changes.

User Reviews

Users like the addon’s goal and report it works for many pages/accounts, but multiple reviewers note overly aggressive replacements, incomplete coverage of UI elements, limited language support and inconsistent behavior across accounts or after site/URL changes, and incomplete logo/favicon updates.
Pros
  • Effectively restores Twitter wording/branding in many places for most users.
  • Simple concept that users appreciate — many reviewers say it 'works' and like the idea.
  • Generally reliable and easy to use for a majority of accounts/sites.
Cons
  • Text replacement is too aggressive and sometimes substitutes inside other words or names (e.g., XIV → TwitterIV, character named 'X').
  • Incomplete coverage: some UI elements remain unchanged (e.g., 'Undo Repost', some 'Post' or 'X' instances).
  • Limited language and account/URL handling: non-English sites show untranslated strings and the addon can behave inconsistently across accounts or when the site/URL changes.
  • Doesn't always update logos/favicons or button styling (Tweet button still black, favicon/logo sometimes not replaced).

it works good, but sometimes the favicon wont set, a few things still say "post", and it spams "hi" and "ayo" in the console

Is Bring Twitter Back Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Bring Twitter Back requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Bring Twitter Back is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
