Check whether a public X (Twitter) account shows signs of a search suggestion ban, search ban, ghost ban or reply deboosting. Free, no X login.
Reads public X search and conversation data directly in your browser — no login required.
A public test: it cannot see For You reach, notifications or X’s internal labels.
Type any public X handle. No X login is needed. The checker starts by confirming the profile is public and reachable.
Queries X’s search suggestion box for the handle, then checks whether recent posts from the last 14 days appear in public Latest search results.
Opens the public conversation threads for up to 3 recent replies to see whether they appear on the first page or are pushed down / hidden.
Expand each test to see the exact numbers and sampled posts, or export a Signal map / Split report card in 7 colour palettes.
People use “shadowban” as an umbrella term for restrictions that make an account or its posts harder to find without a full suspension. X officially calls this visibility filtering.
Instead of a vague yes-or-no score, this checker tests four specific public places where X users look for your account: search suggestions, Latest search results, reply threads, and first-page reply placement.
Because this tool never asks for your X login, it tests only public pages. No external checker can see:
Yes. All four checks, the sampled post breakdown, the shareable PNG card and the share link are completely free.
No. It does not ask for your password or access to your X account. It only checks public X pages.
You can check any public X account. Private accounts cannot be tested. Please use results respectfully.
No. Public search can miss a post for reasons other than a ban, such as indexing lag or temporary search glitches. That is why the tool says “possible” rather than claiming certainty, and why it checks missing search results twice.
Search ban needs at least one public post from the last two weeks, and reply tests need recent public replies. When an account has not posted those recently, the checker marks the test as not tested rather than guessing.
Reply deboosting means replies are harder to find in threads (pushed down or behind “Show more replies”), while your account is still searchable. A ghost ban is the stronger pattern where replies are missing from threads and your recent posts are also missing from search.
Todas (clear means your account is visible in public search and reply threads. A drop in views usually comes from the For You recommendation algorithm, which changes based on engagement, topic shifts, and follower activity — things no public checker can see.)
The test runs live in your browser tab. Public profile photos may be cached briefly so the share card can render cleanly, and nothing is stored as a permanent shadowban database.
