iPhone App Review : Tweetie

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

Ok my second attempt at a review. This time an iphone app instead of a game (topple) like last time.

I personally think that twitterific is a great Twitter client for the iPhone. But after a twitter from Stephen Fry recommending Tweetie as a good iPhone client I thought it best I give it a go.

First I will give you a list of features taken straight from the Tweetie website.

  • Handle multiple twitter accounts.
  • View your timeline, replies, direct messages and favorites.
  • Browse your friends and followers.
  • Post new tweets, retweet
  • Reply directly to tweets and send direct messages.
  • Follow and unfollow people.
  • Mark tweets as favorites.
  • Navigate reply chains.
  • Inline web browser.
  • Post links with automatic link shrinking via bit.ly.
  • Upload pictures to twitpic.com.
  • Update your twitter location.
  • View twitter trends and perform custom searches.
  • Save your favorite searches.
