Tweetbot Twitter client for iOS now available

mobile

Tapbot just lifted the veil on Tweetbot, the firm’s newest iOS  Twitterclient. We’ve been using the client for a bit now and it’s definitely pretty versatile; it supports multiple accounts, as well as multiple timelines. So when we wanted to quickly pull up a specific list, we just had to tap the “Timeline” title at the top to quickly switch. The app offers “smart gestures,” too, which means you can triple tap a tweet to reply or swipe a tweet from left to right to view messages you’ve exchanged with that person. As with most Twitter applications, you can post your location, share photos, videos, manage lists, and more. Tweetbot also includes push notifications with support for Boxcar. We like the fast user interface, but wish that it supported active links within the timeline. The app currently forces you to click a tweet and then launch an embedded link. Otherwise we’re pretty pleased with Tweetbot so far. It’s available for $2.99 in the iTunes App Store and is supported on the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Hit the jump for a link.

    Welcome to yesterday’s news – and its not exactly news. There is nothing notable about the client AT ALL. It’s all marketing hype. Enjoy your two dollar reskin of the the official client

      It certainly looks that way, doesn’t it?

      Also I use a client called Tweetlogix which is twice as good at half the hype.

    Double tapping on a link brings up the web page for me…

    Its a brilliant Twitter Client. I’m also waiting to see when Tweedecks new and improved iOS version will be released. It was started way back in October and about a month or so ago it was coming in “coming weeks”

    TweetBot will be a hard, hard contender. I’d say it would easily take the cake if it had Facebook intergration.

    It does support “active links” in the timeline. Just double-tap the link.

    It is only $1.99 in the App Store and you guys were way late on this news/review. Tipb and Engadget had this covered yesterday.

  • geszhu

    As others have already reported, it is 1.99, but aginst what was noted in the article it does not currently support iPads. I mean you can use it with a HVGA resolution, but that’s crappy.

    Correction – Tweetbot is $1.99 , not $2.99
