Check profile, suggestions, search, posts and replies across multiple public signals using only a username.
BanScope is a free visibility checker for X (Twitter) and Threads. Enter a username to check public profile availability, search suggestions, search visibility, recent posts and replies. No login, OAuth connection or password is required.
X does not expose an official “shadowban” status. Its own help documentation explains that not every post or account is shown in search and lists factors such as protected posts, sensitive-content filtering, relevance, credibility and spam controls. BanScope therefore checks observable public visibility signals instead of claiming access to an internal ban flag.
Threads does not publish a public “shadowban” flag either. Recommendations and discovery depend on multiple platform signals. BanScope checks the public profile, public posts and searchable visibility that can be observed externally, helping you separate a visibility problem from an unavailable signal.
Whether the profile can be resolved publicly.
Whether the account appears in available suggestion signals.
Whether recent post IDs match recent search results.
Whether recent public posts can be resolved externally.
Whether recent reply IDs can be matched in reply or conversation search.
BanScope measures public visibility; it cannot read private platform enforcement systems. Results are shown as normal, check or re-check rather than a guaranteed ban verdict. Search and recommendations can vary by time, account settings, viewer and content, so repeat the check later when necessary.
Yes. The X check is free and does not require login or a password.
Yes. Threads checks are also free and use publicly observable profile, post and search signals.
It is a common unofficial term for reduced discoverability in places such as search, replies or recommendations. BanScope measures public visibility rather than claiming an official ban status.
It commonly describes reduced reach or discoverability on Threads. BanScope checks externally observable visibility signals, not a private Meta enforcement flag.
Follow the reason and action shown in the result, then repeat the check after 5–30 minutes. X users can also use the reply-URL and Under the Hood checks.
BanScope avoids treating one missing search result as proof of a shadowban. The methodology is informed by official platform documentation about search visibility and recommendation eligibility.
