How to Always View Images in High Quality on X (Twitter) [Mobile]
On X (formerly Twitter), images don’t always display in their original quality. To save data, the app often compresses them, which can make photos look less sharp. Still, there are times when you want to see every image in full quality.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to change your settings so images always display in high quality on X. Since this option isn’t available on the desktop version, the steps below apply only to the mobile app.
How to display images in high quality on a smartphone (Android)
In the X mobile app, you can change the image quality settings with the following steps. Here I explain using the Android version as an example, but you can configure it with the same steps on the iOS version as well.
Launch the X app
Open Settings
Select [Accessibility, Display, and Languages]
Select [Data usage settings]
In the [Images] section, under [High-quality images], select [On mobile data and Wi-Fi]
Conclusion
That’s it for how to always display images in high quality on X. If image quality sometimes degrades, changing this setting will allow images to display in high quality.

I've been using JavaScript more than my native language since birth. I am nowhere and everywhere on the internet.
I build web apps and browser extensions in TypeScript as a web frontend programmer. I released Shadowban Scanner, a tool that detects shadowbans on X, and Restore Link Card, a tool that brings back link cards. Media outlets in Japan and abroad covered both tools. For iGEM 2023, I built the Wiki for Team Japan-United and helped the team win the Grand Prize. On my blog, I cover news about X and social media, test and troubleshoot bugs, and share frontend development insights.
