Tweetbot
According to Twitter, it's not possible to innovate on clients any more; glad to see a company willing to prove otherwise. This is why I'm always against a platform company saying "don't build x" whether it's Twitter saying don't build clients or Apple saying don't build web browsers.
Best feature: swipe left to see the conversation, including replies to others you don't follow. Awesome.
I'm surprised they still released this after the twitter "don't build clients" email from a few months back.
I have all of tapbots apps, and find them amazing. This appears to be no different. I don't tweet much, but you can be sure I will use tweetbot from now on. Awesome. Best of all, no #dickbar.
Also, this has one of the best demo videos and presentation I have seen.
It looks nicer than most of the Twitter apps out there, but I don't think I'm leaving Echofon yet. I love the desktop/iPhone/iPad sync, built-in push notifications and muting capabilities.
(I know there's Boxcar, but I've seen friends have trouble unsubscribing from Boxcar effectively, that's a bit worrisome to me however fringe case it may be.)
I love the hell out of the GUI and I'm a tapbot fan.
However, I've found myself swiping for conversations only to find there were none.
It's especially true of high volume tweeters like @acarvin because it splits the conversation up.
Possible Solution?: If it could pre-load ahead and save me the multiple instances of finding nothing.
The demo video is really well done. Does anyone knows who produced it?
I love the icon. It alone makes me feel compelled to buy it.
There's certainly some nice features, and it's a nice UI. But I much prefer Twitter clients that show more tweets on the screen at once. The large location and retweet-info bars mean I see about 30% fewer tweets in some parts of my timeline compared to other apps, even with the small font size set. Anyone find this is an immediate turn-off for a twitter app?
Not sure if I'm missing the difference between this and the official Twitter client.
They basically took the official client and reskinned it.
I'm not a fan of the Tapbots style, so maybe it's not aimed at me, but I much prefer the cleaner official client.
Too bad it's crashing on iPhone 3G. Hope this will be fixed with an update.
Beautiful UI. My first Tapbots app. Very impressed. I wish it had native push notifications and landscape support though =/ Will be using it as my primary client for a bit though, to see how it goes.
I predict this app will be renamed within the next six months.
Love this. First Twitter app I've got no complaints about. Hopefully will get push notifications at some point, then I can ditch the official app entirely.
I've been logging my weight with their fantastic Weightbot for a couple years now. Great intuitive UX and graphic design. Fine work.
I love this application it has solved so many problems that other twitter apps couldn't
the multiple timelines feature makes me wish there was a desktop version. or that i had an iphone.
Hope they do an iPad app!
Replaced Icebird for me, love it :)
Just what the world needed....yet another twitter client.
