X Adds History Tab For Bookmarks Likes Videos And Articles

Share

X has changed how iOS users find content they want to revisit, adding a private History area that gathers watched, read, liked, and saved items in one place.


Good to Know

  • X renamed the Bookmarks menu button to History.
  • The new page includes Bookmarks, Likes, Videos, and Articles.
  • Videos and Articles appear based on user activity, not only manual saves.

X Turns Saved Content Into A Wider Discovery Tool

The new History tab gives X users something closer to a browser style content trail. Instead of only saving posts by tapping Bookmarks, users can now return to videos and articles they already watched or read while scrolling.

Nikita Bier, head of product at X, called the iOS feature a better way to track favorite content and finish posts, videos, or articles later. X says the section stays private.

The redesign also removes some friction. Likes previously sat inside the user profile, while Bookmarks lived in the main mobile menu. History now puts both beside automatically tracked Videos and Articles.

For X, the Articles tab may be the more important part. The platform has pushed longer posts as a tool for businesses, creators, and publishers that need more space than the usual 280 character post limit.

That comes at a time when publishers get fewer clicks from Facebook and Google, with algorithm changes and AI answers reducing traffic to outside websites. X can use History to keep reading, video viewing, content discovery, creator posts, social media bookmarks, and X Articles inside one app
