Roundup of retina-ready apps for the new iPad
Calendar16 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 13:45:00 UTC +00:00
It's iPad day and many of you are looking for the best Retina-capable apps to install on your new Apple tablet. Apple's got you covered with a section of the iTunes app store dedicated to apps updated to support the iPad's new retina display. Apple's list will get you started, but it isn't exhaustive and only includes major apps like Tweetbot and Evernote. There are many other retina-ready apps that are not being showcased by Apple. We won't be able to list every single retina app in the App Store, but we will cover some of our favorites below. If there are any that we have missed, please let us know in the comments! And here is the list from Apple: Read More
The nominations are in, and the poll is ready to go! The TUAW Best of 2011 awards are all about you -- the readers -- and what you think is the cream of the crop of Apple or third-party products and software. To vote, select one entry from the top nominations made by readers. We'll be announcing the winner in just a few days. Vote early and often! TUAW is asking for your votes for the best iPad social networking app of 2011. Once again, we got only a few nominations in this category, meaning that most readers may use their iPhones more than their iPad for their social networking. In addition, several readers nominated apps that run on the iPad but are not designed specifically for the platform -- they've been disqualified. As a result, I took a quick poll of a number of tech writers and bloggers to get Read More
Best of 2011 nominations: iPhone social networking apps
Calendar16 Sat, 17 Dec 2011 22:00:00 UTC +00:00
During December and January, The Unofficial Apple Weblog is soliciting your nominations and votes for the best products for Mac, iPhone/iPod touch, and iPad. We'll start with nominations in a category, and then tally your votes for the top-nominated products a few days later. The winner in each category receives the highly-coveted title of TUAW Best of 2011. Today's category for TUAW Best of 2011 nominations is iPhone social networking apps. Most of us love to share our every move with the rest of the world, and the awe-inspiring selection of social networking apps that have popped up for the iPhone is nothing short of amazing. What's in this category? A flock of Twitter apps, everything from the "official" app from Twitter (free), the great Tweetbot app from Tapbots ($2.99), Icon Factory's wonderful Twitterriffic for Twitter (free for ad-supported version, $4.99 for premium upgrade), Echofon (free), and Big Stone Phone's Twittelator Read More

Twitter revamps mobile web app

With all of the various options available, like Echofon, Twitterific, the official Twitter app and everything else, you already have a choice of ways to browse and post to Twitter on your iPhone. But just in case you happen to use Mobile Safari to do it, Twitter has updated its mobile web app, tuning it up a bit to match both the standard official Twitter interface and the "new Twitter experience" seen on the standard website. As you can see at right, the bar that's normally across the bottom now sits on top, and you can browse through replies, mentions, and check out trending lists. You can even view some media, like pictures and videos, right there in the feed. Pretty groovy. Again, I can't think of a reason why you'd use this over a dedicated app on the iPhone, but it's up to you. The new version of Twitter's mobile Read More

Weekly App Store Picks: November 14, 2009
Calendar16 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 20:01:38 UTC +00:00
As the weekend arrives it’s time to take another look at the latest iPhone apps to hit the store. As ever, I’ve selected four of the freshest picks for you to check out. This week I’ve gathered a random assortment of app goodness for you to look at. There’s a great new sound toy, a tool for transforming your tweets into haikus, an app for Apple completists and a bombastic little tanks game. My top pick for this week is Into Infinity, a new sound toy from the folks at dublab. Plus, I’ve also been looking at Twiku, iCombat Lite and Mactracker. The iPhone seems to be just the right platform for interacting with sound, so whenever a new sound toy hits the App Store I’ve just got to take a look. INTO INFINITY, an art and music exhibition presented by dublab and Creative Commons, lets you create your own swirling Read More

Echofon Pro (formerly TwitterFon Pro), the premium version of the popular iPhone Twitter client, was just recently updated to version 2.1, which among an odd name change, also introduces push notifications without the need for a third-party app (ie. Boxcar, TweetPush), and unread tweet syncing with Echofon for Firefox (formerly TwitterFox) and the not-yet-released Echofon for Mac. Version 2.0 was a major upgrade back in July, and we’ve been waiting for built-in push notifications since then. However, I am quite disappointed with the current implementation naan studio has decided to go with. The push notification alerts are severely delayed, the process to register the app with a Twitter account (using oAuth) is cumbersome, and the sound effects are unimpressive and rather annoying. Echofon Pro’s push notification server checks Twitter for new Direct Messages and Mentions once every 15 minutes. Like myself, many of you receive more than a single Twitter message Read More
By Rene Ritchie, Tuesday, Sep 15, 2009 | qStatus is the App Store subset of the qTweeter Jailbreak app, and Echofon is the new name for Twitterfon. Confused yet? Don’t be, we’ve got the basics on both these iPhone and iPod touch Twitter clients! qStatus [$0.99 - iTunes link] is designed to quickly let you update your Twitter (and/or Facebook status), either with text, or by sharing your current song, a photo from the camera or library, or a video from iPhone 3GS. There’s no reading functionality, but there is the typical Gx5 attention to awesome interface detail. Unlike qTweeter for Jailbreak, of course, there’s no multitasking “swipe-down-to-tweet-from-anywhere” functionality either. Echofon [Free - iTunes link] or Pro [$4.99 - iTunes link] is, as mentioned, the new name for Twitterfon and the new Pro version includes Push Notifications (with optional “sleep” period so it doesn’t bother you when you’re trying to get Read More

Just like NibiruTech’s iTwitter, now known as Twitbird Pro, Naan Studio’s TwitterFon has received a name change.  TwitterFon is now Echofon, which we first assumed was to avoid copyright issues, once again just like NibiruTech, although the developers have stated that it was merely a way to unify the names of their products. Besides the name change, Echofon Pro for the iPhone and iPod touch now supports Push Notifications for both mentions and direct messages.  The free version of Echofon will be receiving Push Notifications in the near future. Echofon Pro is also now able to sync unread messages with Naan Studios Echofon for Firefox Twitter extension, which means that if you utilize both services you won’t have to read the same tweet twice.  The developers state that a separate Mac OS X application, which will be able to do more of the same, is “coming soon.” Echofon is now available Read More
**WIN A COPY FOR FREE!** We all know Twitter is a massive destruction from work and school, this app is here to help you with that. Boxcar ($2.99) This app is the inaugural app endorsement of Twitterholics Anonymous (it’s fake for those without humor). Ever been to work or school and too distracted to tweet? Wish you’d be notified of mentions and DM’s? Well addict, meet daddy! Settings The app supports a wide array of Twitter clients. And yes, even both and free Twitter clients. This review is specifically tested with Twittelator Pro (my super love). However, free applications can be used against this like Twitterfon and Twinkle.

Ed eccoci pronti ad inaugurare un’altra miglioria per il Blog di iSpazio. E’ una funzione che avete richiesto in molti e che abbiamo avuto modo di testare durante l’intensa settimana sul Blog provvisorio. Sto parlando dei commenti nidificati, ovvero della possibilità di rispondere a determinate persone in una maniera decisamente più semplice ed immediata. Vediamo i dettagli: Innanzitutto è stato spostato l’avatar principale da destra a sinistra e quindi apparirà prima del Nick di ogni utente. In secondo luogo, è stato aggiunto un piccolo tasto “Rispondi”, tramite il quale portrete scrivere un commento all’interno di quello principale, proprio come mostra l’immagine in alto. I commenti nidificati possono avere massimo 2 livelli di profondità. Il primo si contraddistingue da un box di colore grigio mentre il secondo è delimitato da un box bianco, all’interno del precedente.

App Store Insider is back from its short hiatus to bring you a new perspective on all things App Store related.  Instead of the usual whining about the App Store being broken, and how developers are constantly given the run around from Apple when things don’t go as expected, I have decided to bring you the story of three college students trying to make their presence felt at the App Store.

TwitterFon has been one of the more successful free Twitter applications available for the iPhone and iPod touch.  It offers a simple and clean interface, and it includes only the most essential features since it is available for free, but a recent update to TwitterFon added advertisements which caused a bit of a stir among the applications faithful fans.  If you are one of those long-time TwitterFon users who just can’t stand advertisements, you might want to check out developer Kazuho Okui’s new version of TwitterFon titled TwitterFon Pro. TwitterFon Pro offers the same simple and clean interface that you have come to expect from TwitterFon, but it adds a ton more features to make all of you Twitterholics even more efficient.

Seit gestern Nacht befindet sich für alle Twitterrific-Fans das langersehnte 2.0-Update im App Store, welches sich mittlerweile auch durch die Server-Windungen bis in den deutschen Store durchgefressen hat. Neben einer furiosen Bandbreite an neuen Funktionen wie der Verwaltung verschiedener Accounts, der Ansicht seiner eigenen Follower und automatisches Scrolling, geht mit der Aktualisierung ein Preissturz einher. Neben der weiterhin verfügbaren werbefinanzierten Version (kostenlos; App Store-Link) kostet Twitterrific Premium aktuell 2.99 € (App Store-Link). Über das Re-Design wird schon jetzt fleißig gestritten. Fest steht jedoch, dass die Applikation mit dem kleinen, blauen Vogel – das für Viele zum Twitter-Markenzeichen avancierte – ein abermals ernsthafter Konkurrent zu TwitterFon (App Store-Link) und Tweetie (App Store-Link) bereitsteht.

We couldn't get feedback from everybody on the RWW team (and our BlackBerry users weren't very forthcoming with suggestions either), but here are the recommendations from Richard MacManus (R), Marshall Kirkpatrick (M), Frederic Lardinois (F), and Phil Glockner (P).

7 iPhone Apps that have stuck on my home screen
Calendar16 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 17:25:00 UTC +00:00
To say that a lot of software has passed through my iPhone's home screen is an understatement. Between apps that I bought and apps I've been asked to try out, my iPhone has been subject to more software than I ever expected. With the year drawing to a close, I decided to take a look at my iPhone home screen and mention some titles that have displayed sticking power. Here is my list of the top 8 apps that stayed on my iPhone and show no sign of going away any time soon. They are in no particular order. Link: iTunes LinkPublisher: FreeversePrice: $0.99 (Update: Now $1.99)Platform: iPhone and iPod touch I must be honest.When I first heard of Flick Fishing, I thought it was the stupidest idea for an iPhone game that I had yet encountered, right up there with most golfing games.

Reviews

The basics done right
jaseone 5.0 stars Version: 1.0.1
Finally a Twitter application that just lets you easily see your friend's tweets, your @ replies and your direct messages, nothing fancy like the other iPhone clients but hey that's all I need!
Almost perfect
Drakywins 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
It works great... And doesn't add those useless extras that nobody needs. To get 5 stars add the times tweete are posted and the ability to post pictures. The look is basic and clean, all you really need.
Fast and simple
chrisgeleven 4.0 stars Version: 1.0.1
Why did I pick twitterfon instead of twitteriffic? Speed and simplicity. Twitterfon is fast. No slow scrolling, no loading screen. Just speed. It is also a simple program. It has just what it needs and nothing else. Simple like twitted should be. Twitterfon is highly recommended.
Switched from Twitterific
jkmbb 5.0 stars Version: 1.2.1
Love this app. Used Twitterific before. So far so good. Good features, no crashes, speedier updates. Dig it.
Fast!!!
djadamjay 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
i just clocked this versus twitteriffic, and it loaded up 30% faster. the app description is very accurate. this is great for tweeting on the go and checking the latest tweets from friends, but not much else. Sometimes, that's all you need though.
Spot on (almost)
sulciphur 4.0 stars Version: 1.1
With this latest update, this is the best Twitter client on the iPhone (yes, I said it). It's quick, minimal, and yet supports (nearly) all of the features you'd expect.
The Best
Paulywogg 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.3
Simply the best Twitted app available period! I've tried each and this has the best mix of simplicity and functionality. What a great free app.
Best twitter app period
ejdyksen 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
This is the best app for twitter on the iPhone by far. It's free, too!
Perfect
Doubter 5.0 stars Version: 1.2
Simple, straightforward and fast, this is easily the best Twitter app. The latest version is a huge improvement, looking and working much better. Highly recommended.
Great App
MedicalMoon 4.0 stars Version: 1.0.1
The only thing I wish it did automatic check for MSG. But it works great.
Fast!!
avergara 4.0 stars Version: 1.0
Pretty fast app. What I really like about this app is how fast and to the point it is, if you want to tweet and read tweets, and not much else, this is it! The fact that it lets you see replies and messages in a different tab than the regular feed is a big plus for me. I would probably still use another app that allows me to send pics as a complement to TwitterFon, however TwitterFon has become my main Twitter Iphone app.
Fast and Best
CafeHangout 5.0 stars Version: 1.1
I've tried all the other twitter packages and this is by far the best. Fast and simple.
Perfect
acarback 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
Exactly what a Twitter app should be: quick, easy, and clean.
Need a "Block" function
Dyfed 4.0 stars Version: 1.4.1
Overall, this ist the best Twitter app I've used for iPhone so far. The way @replies and direct messages are displayed is perfect. It's a lot faster to load than a lot of the other apps I've used, as well. I really like to be able to look at tweets in my neighborhood (within a 5 mile radius, for instance) and this app lets me do that as well, but unlike Twinkle, this app doesn't allow me to remove or block users that I don't want to include in that search. This severely limits that feature... I don't want to have to scroll through 50 messages filling up my screen that are all from one user. In Twinkle, I can block that person and still see everyone else in the area. That's my only complaint with this app.
Beginner
SoYLaVoZ 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.1
It's beginner friendly, I had no clue what twitter was.
The best free twitter client in iPhone!
daappreviewer 5.0 stars Version: 1.2.2
That's all I can say.
Does Exactly What I Want and Nothing More
evan2011 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
This app is just perfect lets me write, check, and reply to tweets and it has a embedded safari browser for links. No crazy GPS function and fast!!!
Simple, clean, and fast
archivist08 5.0 stars Version: 1.0
I love simplicity and speed - this is now my Tweeter app of choice. Could you please let us change colors, though? The colors currently used are not that great.
BEST TWITTER APP
SMILEYEDDIE760 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.4
it's easy to use n u can do just about everything u could on ur mac or pc! N da best part ITS FREE!!! STALK ME ON TWITTER.COM/eddiecabanyog
My most used iPhone app
simlee009 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.3
I tried several Twitter clients before settling on TwitterFon. I chose it for its relative speed and simplicity at first, but the developer has managed to add all sorts of functionality wrapped in a simple interface over time. I would easily recommend this app to anyone looking for a good Twitter app.
Best free twitter app
sniperX007 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.3
This is by far the best Twitter app. I bought Tweetie though and it is slighly better.
Great app but some features needed...
Rdude118 3.0 stars Version: 1.4.3
This app is amazingly built so far and it does everything I want except there is no option for the app not to share my latitiude and longitude cordinates. Also, It needs an option to retweet a tweet that I have written. Thanks!
Cheeba
KCheEba 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.4
Got this first then got twittie. Fon is way better I do all my tweets from my iPhone n twitterFon is the best Tweet app there is!!!
And Free to Boot!
fn0rd 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.3
A full-featured Twitter client—and it's free!
Simple wins
u2mr2os2 4.0 stars Version: 1.2.1
I dig the author's philosophy of keeping the main, everyday functions simple, but still having the other functionality there, just one level down. The support for following multiple links and @ references in a tweet is very nice. The friends list in the tweet composer with pictures and the quick index totally rocks. It still doesn't do everything, of course. The feature I want most is a way to follow someone new I either search for or come across. Minor features would be tapping a person's location taking me to that place in Maps, somewhere I could get to a list of my followers or perhaps bookmarked people to get to their timeline for when I don't have a recent tweet from them to do it with.
What a great twitter app!
AeroHil 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.4
Awesome app for free!
Quick, simple effective
Rokudan 4.0 stars Version: 1.4.4
Excellant app, free make it better. No muss no fuss and it works.
one of my fav
khiemahhh 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.4
great reliable app! very simple functional user interface! i'd recommend it to anyone who is on twitter!
Great app!
toberlin 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.4
This is by far the best free app for Twitter. If you use Twitter, and like free apps, then this is what you have been looking for. It is clean, easy to use, and has a lot of options. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED.
Great App
apinson100 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.4
I have never wrote a review but I had to for this one. Great app, easy to use, & best of all FREE! Love it!
Great Minimalist App
Kiserai 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.4
This is great if you just want a way to quickly and reliably send and receive tweets. This is a very fast app and it never crashes. Good job. Add the ability to change your twitter photo using your camera and it would be perfect.
TwitterFon vs Tweetie
guerrillaradio 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.5
I've used both. TwitterFon is just as functional (if not more so in some cases), fast, and user friendly as Tweetie. But TwitterFon is free! Skip Tweetie - stick with this.
best Twitter app for iPhone
subboy 5.0 stars Version: 1.4.5
it's clean, compact, yet full-featured. stable, too; that's good. navigation is clean. you get all the bits you'd expect when composing. easy to reply & RT. i've looked at others; this is the hands-down best.
Better than Twiterific
KidKlassic 4.0 stars Version: 1.4.5
I actually had this app before and i didn't like it. I don't know what they did between then and now but this app is GREAT. I love it. One thing I wanted was to retweet and to conclude other @replies. Twitterific can't do that. This app is actually really fast as well. Shows how fast the iPhone can really perform. Thanks for this. Great app.
Ad "Support"??
echosan 4.0 stars Version: 1.5
If I had written this review one day ago, it would have been 4 or 5 stars. But instead, I'm forced to give it a statement-making 1 star in the hopes that Kazuho will take notice.
ADS!!!
chouse6 4.0 stars Version: 1.5
I can't believe the update added adds to this!
Don't update---keep 1.4.6
dtoub 5.0 stars Version: 1.5
Not happy about the ads, especially since I'm not seeing any advantage to this update (ie, the “new functionality” has been here for some time anyway). I downgraded to 1.4.6. It's faster without the ads.
Update
ACSEF 4.0 stars Version: 1.5
The update ruined this app.
Failed
Vegasclimber 1.0 stars Version: 1.5
Was an acceptable app before the update. Limited, but free which balanced it out. Ads, and frequent crashing, on top of the already limited features, along with the failure of the search interface, means that I will now go to Tweetie.
Don't fix what ain't broke
Bad app BAD 1.0 stars Version: 1.5
Was awesome app till today's update. Now unusable because of errors. Ads were no big deal but the errors are unacceptable.
Was the best, but now?
@agriggs05gfu 1.0 stars Version: 1.5
Ok. I have been researching and spending hours, as part of my job, looking for the best iPod Touch/iPhone apps. I had actually recommended this app to multiple people. I normally would have given this app 5 Stars, but adding Ads is the quickest way to kill your customer base. People chose this app because it was Ad free Kazuho. And now that you have a paid for app...why add the Ads? Unless the ads go, I will not be recommending this app anymore. Sad, it was the best. Now? :-(
ADS?!?! AAAAARGH!!!!
Just_jane 1.0 stars Version: 1.5
This app was great until they added advertising at the top of the screen that you CANT GET RID OF. I will never again blindly download an app "update" if this is what it will do. Such trickery!! Dear developer, if you have any human decency, come to your senses & get rid of the ads. They're ridiculous & waste space at the top of the screen. FIX IT.... FIT IT!!!!
Ads are annoying
Shark131 1.0 stars Version: 1.5
-4 for putting ads in. Fricken annoying. First thing you see when you open the app is a massive ad. Reinstalling 1.4.6. So glad I have this old version. Making this a "lite" version with ads and then having a "pro" version is fricken dumb. Ok it's obvious you want money but you were doing it free for so long why switch? Greed?
Terrible update
Sharona8 1.0 stars Version: 1.5
Lots of errors now.
Hero to Zero
Elecray7k 3.0 stars Version: 1.5
Was my Twitter App of choice, but today's update has unseated it. The ads are tolerable, but take forever to load and make the app perform slowly. Most egregiously, only my tweets -- and not those of my friends -- appear on the timeline. This app is now useless, and I see little point in keeping it.
Give him a break!
n.capo 5.0 stars Version: 1.5.1
The number of one star reviews has skyrocketed after Kazuho placing a small ad at the top of the main screen. Devolopers need to make some money off their work. I don't understand how people can be that bothered by it. I haven't noticed any slow down by the ads and they don't bother me for all of the function this app provides. I can easily post messages, send my current location, post pictures, and links (with included bookmarklet) to twitter. Do you not use a site with "Ads by Google" links? Give this app a try, it offers everything Tweetie does for FREE.
New Version has Issues
Wayfarer247 2.0 stars Version: 1.5
I don't mind the ads that the new version brought, but I am not a fan of all the error messages that I am getting. It should get it's act together and make it a stream lined program again.
Miss my twitterfon
Ladyhawk_78 2.0 stars Version: 1.5
Loved until the latest update - now it just crashes every time I open it.
Better before upgrade
kidskittles 2.0 stars Version: 1.5
This app was ten times better before the upgrade. I liked that it didn't have the stupid ads at the top and was usually very reliable. Now, the ads are always so messed up and spend so much time trying to load that it causes the app to freeze, stall and crash. So, to those complaining about those complaning about the ads: the ads ruined the app and that's what the complaint is.
Unfortunately turned into an ad app...
Heli2reg 3.0 stars Version: 1.5.2
I really liked TwitterFon until a recent update where they placed a new ad section (yes! Don't be fooled by the outdated screenshots) right under the refresh button. Now they are making their money by you pulling the ad accidently when trying to refresh (50% chance you'll miss the refresh and call up the annoying ad)
Deleted
spetriccione 1.0 stars Version: 1.5.4
Was good, now just annoying ad-ware, bye!
How sad and annoying
Vml555 1.0 stars Version: 1.5.4
I just installed the latest update and the new ad function where it pops in and out is SO annoying. I will be saying good bye to this app right now!
Annoying Ad
Drewsky5 1.0 stars Version: 1.5.4
I used to love this app, bur the ads are getting WAY too invasive for me. Thanks for motivating me to move to a different Twitter client.
WTF?
TeamEdward5611234 1.0 stars Version: 2.1
Echofon? Really? Could they have thought of a stupider name? What does this have to do with anything?? STUPIDEST update ever! If you guys don't change the name back, I'm getting a new app just to save myself from embarrasment. STUPID STUPID name. Seriously.
Getting really POed
operknockity 1.0 stars Version: 2.0
v1.5.4 brought the massively annoying new pop up ads. Now v2.0 is constantly crashing. Even after clearing the cache. Previous versions crashed every now and then. New version has crashed 5 times in an hour. Too bad you can't give a rating of less than 1 start! Maybe time for a new twitter client?????
Best Twitter app
Island Roots 4.0 stars Version: 1.5.4
Simplistic, yet powerful best summarizes this Twitter app. Although I prefer the old ad placement at the top as opposed to the new placement at the bottom.
👍
darnell xxx 5.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
Seems to be working just fine for me ... And for the people complaining about scrolling all the way to the top to tweet... If you tap the bar that shows your time and battery percentage , it takes you to the top of your timeline , it's works with anything ! Ex. Safari , contacts , messages etc blah blah.. Yeah 😊
Needs to have Twitlonger!
iashleyjill 4.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
Twitlonger is a must have. Please fix it and I will give 5 stars!
Amazing !!!
B.O.B Luke Dillion Job SR. 5.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
I had the twitter app but then they updated it and I hated the update so I went back to Echofon because I have always had this app and liked it , so I suggest you get this over the Twitter App .
Arabic keyboard bug
Alfairouzi 3.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
Still there is a bug when I try to write a sentence in Arabic. After I write a word then press the space button, the keyboard switches to numbers mode!!.. Please fix it.
No notifications & sign out issue
TweetCrazy 1.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
Notifications don't work!!!! 😡😡😡
What happened?
This is really goooood 1.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
Okay you updated it but I can't see who I follow & my followers list! Please fix :'(
Approve followers etc...
Future RN 4.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
I'm thinking about paying for ad-free version of the app but from what I'm seeing it lacks twitlonger and you can approve followers from the app. Those two would be great features to have. For a free app it's pretty good!
Streaming stopped working
Sinergy1 1.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
After the last two updates the streaming stopped working when I'm on wifi. I've deleted and reloaded twice and it still doesn't stream. Fix the streaming and I'll give you 5 stars.
Great Twitter App
Jonny Moses 5.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
I recommend it.
Requests per hour?
Cassandrac1 1.0 stars Version: 5.1.3
Only 7 requests per hour?!?!?! What is this??? So annoying.
