![]() Slide a tweet towards left to reveal a detailed tweet page with conversations, time and date, information about faves or retweets and tweet actions.Some of the useful gestures and shortcuts include: This makes navigating and performing different tasks a lot more convenient. Unsurprisingly the Tweetbot 3 app for iPhone and iPod touch has gestures and shortcuts – a lot of them. The good thing is that the timeline keeps on updating itself without the need pulling to refresh again and again and so does the tweet number indicator. The numbers appear on top right side of the timeline, right below the compose button that makes it easier to see without it blocking view for anything or taking away the real estate. One very useful and innovative feature that I am particularly impressed of in Tweetbot 3 app is how it shows the number of new tweets that have arrived after every refresh. The photo mode is very much similar to the Instagram news feed displaying large pictures for the user. The second mode allows users to only see large images that have been shared by users they are following on Twitter. Tweetbot 3 has a new mode for timeline that can be accessed from the second button located on the right side of search bar. The text looks much larger than before, which makes you wish there was an option to make it smaller – something you can do in Twitterrific app, which by the way also lets users to choose between a black or white themes. ![]() In fact there are no colors in the background at all giving it a clean white look like most parts of iOS 7. The background features a new look as well and has fewer lines and colors. The profile pictures are now rounded instead of being squarish with iPhone icon like edges. The new timeline has the same features as the previous version of the app but has its unique features as well that make it a refreshing change. Timeline is the heart of Twitter experience and Tweetbot has utilised the potential well. This of course is a huge difference then the older flashy and robot-inspired interface. The white background, circled profile pictures, less noisy top bar and subtle navigation bar makes the whole experience minimalistic. The iOS 7 inspired interface that has many similarities with the Twitterrific app will make it look like a new world. If you have used the previous versions of Tweetbot then Tweetbot 3 would seem like a completely different app. On top of that the new version is much better than the older one in terms of looks, performance, features and usability making it a worthy investment. While both point of views have their own merits the Tapbots is right in saying that the Tweetbot 3 has been redesigned from ground app and it deserves the minor payment of $2.99 company is asking. Tapbot maintains that the app is completely redesigned and they are offering the new app at a discounted price so their old customers can take advantage of the offer and pay less to get the app. Now users who have owned Tweetbot previously have to buy the Tweetbot 3 in order to use the latest version. ![]() Despite the excitement initial response from the users who were already using previous versions of the app wasn’t ideal as they took it to Twitter to complain about Tapbots’ decision of releasing the iOS 7 version of the app separately. The new app has been released as a separate entity in the App Store and only supports devices running iOS 7.0 or above. Now with the release of iOS 7 there was a need of redesigning the app from ground app to match the new interface of the operating system, which takes the app further from where it has been standing since 2011.Īfter one and a half month since the release of iOS 7.0 Tapbots delivered the update everyone has been waiting for and it is now available for download at an introductory price of $2.99. Ever since its release this app has been the favorite Twitter client for an overwhelming number of iOS users due to its unique design and features that made it better than Twitter’s own offering or any other third party apps available in the App Store. The original Tweetbot app for Twitter debuted on iOS three years ago.
