Have you found a solution? I am also experiencing it. It only picks tweets in 23 hrs
not really, i programmed a loop which scraped every 30 min with limit 56000 1 day of tweets. Its pretty random if its able to get the whole day or not.
I'm not sure what you think you're missing. If you set your before and end date to scrape a single day, It scrapes from the beginning of that day (00:00:00) to one second before midnight that same day (23:59:59). Perhaps I've misunderstood - what are you missing?
@jomorrcode, it doesn't spool for the whole 24hrs.
I just tried it with Adele and it returned 3000+ rows from 4th of April to 6th

Can you share your code?
It must be intermittent or something. I scraped #nfl with a begin date of March 03 and and end date of March 04 and the earliest tweet was March 03 00:00:00 and the last was March 04 23:59:48.
If you scrape a single day for Adele, what are the earliest and latest datestamps in the returned data?

23:15:49 and 15:46:57 which returned 1670 rows. With the buzz around 'Adele' I expected more
Just querying for "adele" for April 5th, I got 4749 tweets. The earliest is 2020-04-05 00:00:19 and the last one is 2020-04-05 23:59:55. I have no idea how you verify if any are missing.
from twitterscraper import query_tweets
begindate = dt.date(2020,4,5)
enddate = dt.date(2020,4,6)
query='adele'
tweets = query_tweets(query, begindate=begindate, enddate=enddate)
I do agree I've been seeing some oddly inconsistent behaviour.
Investigating here https://github.com/taspinar/twitterscraper/issues/311
Hello, Is it possible to get tweets for all hours of the day? If i use query_tweets it always start to scrape from 23.59 from each day. I already tried to set the limit high and go day by day to get enough tweets until it reaches 0.00, but he still dont get enough tweets most of the time to get to the start of the day. Also the API stops kinda random at high limits (sometimes just scrapes 1k sometimes 16k etc..) It would be great if anyone got a solution for this problem.
