This app reads your twitter timeline for times when you can listen but not look. It reads in an easily understandable voice. Each users name is read, followed by their tweet along with the title of any links they posted. Works just as I hoped.

I just got it and drove to work and listened to all my tweets AQWSOME

I'm making dedicated Twitter lists for the types of tweet's I'm most likely to want to listen to…sweet UI, and smart speech handles a lot of the nuances of Twitter well.

Nice idea, but needs a bit more work to make it a pleasant app to use.Firstly it's much slower than it should be on an iPhone 4. The UI is not responsive enough, especially when scrolling - to the point where it's ultimately unusable at times.Also the voice isn't a particularly good one. While there's clearly been a lot of focus on the UI design, it feels the 'sound design' has been overlooked and is arguably the most important feature of the app. Listening to one or two tweets is fine, but soon becomes tiring to listen too. The app needs to support playing music at the same time. Playing a song while tweets are being read out may help reduce the staleness of the voice.Ability to set a delay between each tweet reading and read the time the tweet occurred may also be useful.

Not only does Tweet Speaker have a beautiful interface it also works amazingly well. I like to listen as the tweets roll in while work around the house. Its also great for keeping up on my timeline as I go for a walk or bike ride. The voice reading the tweets is also very clear and natural. I love that it'll read the title to a linked web page or the person a tweet is in reply to. It's details like this that make Tweet Speaker a great app.

I've been using this for a while as a beta tester and it's found a coveted spot on my home screen.I use it while driving (I wedge my phone in my visor, speaker out) and while walking/jogging. It's an amazingly efficient way to catch up on tweets. Highly recommend... a steal at this price IMO.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Awesome for times when you want to hear the tweets but cant look at your phone. Will use this when I'm driving from now on. Excellent work!

Been looking for something like this and I've finally found it!

This is a great product, everything it claims. Is it perfect? No, but better than anything else available, and it is only ver. 1.0, updates will be coming. Well worth the spend, and expect it to only get better as they react to feedback.

Great app, almost flawless execution. I will use this one for my commute to work. Heck, maybe with Siri, I can say, "Alfred, read me the latest tweets." At which point, iOS5 opens the Tweet Speaker app and I start hearing my very own customized tweet feed.A few suggestions to enhance the user experience:1) add a user option to prevent the voice from speaking the phrase "hash tag" - just sounds unnatural to hear someone say that phrase in a conversation. If I'm reading along while it's speaking, I can clearly see that the word being spoken is a hash tag. If I'm driving, i can't click the hash tag anyway, so there's no point in speaking it. By all means, though, speak the hash tagged word itself.2) add a user option to prevent the voice from identifying/speaking external links. If in driving, I'm not going to be able to click on a link anyway, so it's somewhat worthless in those situations for the voice to read the link. I'd rather have the option to ignore links altogether. 3) the voice should pronounce the emergency services number (911) as "nine-one-one" ... Not "nine hundred and eleven" ..." 911" shows up in a ton of news feed tweets... It should be properly pronounced.4) give an option to iterate through the tweets in reverse (from newest to oldest). Sometimes, I truly want to start at the newest tweet and work backwards.5) when the app reaches (and reads) the last tweet, have the app "start over" at a user-selected preset interval (say, 1, 2, 4 or 8 hrs). That way, when driving, the app acts just like a "repeat whole albumn" function you would find in music players. Of course, on the last tweet, the app should look for the next fresh batch of Tweets first, and if more are found, continue reading the new batch. However, if there a no more fresh tweets, then continue repeating the older tweets from the beginning (based on the interval the user set).
