If the iPad is anywhere in the equation, at least give Twitterrific a try.
#Twitterrific for windows mac#
So again, if iPhone and Mac are your primary tweeting device, you'll probably be better off with Tweetbot. Jason Snell from Six Colors, just like me, love the ipad app. Literally everyone uses it.īut Twitterrific has its fans. Like I said, it's hard to choose between the two clients, but if you follow a lot of Apple writers and podcasters, you'll know the answer. In Tweetbot it's up/down, in Twitterrific it's left/right. Twitterrific also offers you Proxima Nova, Signika, Slab Museum, Calluna and Zosimo.įlip the topic:Both Tweetbot and Twitterrific have this really cool feature where you can instantly switch between light and dark mode with just a swipe of two fingers. Tweetbot supports system font and Avenir. One place Twitterrific has an advantage is in font options.
I'm still not used to this gesture and I accidentally retweeted every time when I wanted to Quote Retweet. If you want to Quote Retweet, you need to tap on the menu button and select the option. And the Retweet button just retweets the tweet. With Twitterrific, you only get 3 icons and they are pretty small, even on the iPad. When you tap on a tweet, you get a panel of 5 easily recognizable and tappable icons. I also prefer the Tweetbot UI to Twitterrific. I love Tweetbot's short swipe to retweet. Twitterrific only has left/right gestures for replying/discussing and they are not customizable. The left swipe is to show the discussion. The short swipe allows you to quickly retweet and the long swipe is for replying. In Tweetbot, the right swipe gesture is double. Speaking of gestures, both apps have left/right swipe actions, as well as a tap action on the tweet. Both have dark (auto) modes, you can customize the size of image previews, text size, avatar and display names. Tweetbot does this from the start.īoth apps provide advanced customization, but again, they differ with specific features. Go to Settings first and bring it to the bottom, especially if you are on an iPhone 6 Plus. It's still one of the most enjoyable UI experiences I've ever had.īy default, the Twitterrific toolbar is at the top.

The best part is that the animation depends on the way you moved it and the direction. This was last year, before it made its way through apps like Slack and now even Twitterrific in some capacity.īasically, when you're viewing an image, just move your finger in any direction to dismiss it. This may make me sound like a UI fanatic, but the first time I really considered buying Tweetbot was when a friend showed me the flick-to-dismiss-image gesture. Just slide your finger over any of the Muffles and you can turn them into a “Silent” state. If you come across a muffled tweet but from a Twitter account, you might want to take a look. If you want, just tap it to view the tweet, or just continue. When a new tweet containing the buffered keyword appears, Twitterrific will not expand it.

Just select Muffles in the sidebar and type in the keyword, that's it. Twitterrific has a feature called “Muffle”. Therefore, you can mute soccer-related keywords only during soccer season. Tweetbot allows you to do something where you can mute for a specific period (days/weeks/month).
