Tweetie

Social Networking App’s are where I find some of my favorite iPhone app’s at. When this app was released I was excited to get it and start playing around. After syncing to my iphone I started app to come to a screen to add account once you type in your Twitter login info you’ll be sent to the Tweets screen like being on your Twitter Home where you can read tweets from people you follow. You can scroll down through recent tweets and by tapping a tweet you’ll open new screen of the tweet with details of who and when it was posted as well as any links in the tweet will be click able.

Across the top you see accounts on the left side this will allow you to go back an add additional Twitter account you may have. On the right side by tapping the paper & pen icon you can create a New Tweet you can type 140 characters just as if you where on twitter.com. Now a few options that make this app even cool than being on Twitter itself, You can add a photo to your tweet by taking a picture with the camera or choose existing photo once you have done this and typed your message hit send & your photo will automatically be uploaded to twitpic and a shortened url you be added to your tweet. You can also add a map link to your tweets which will add a shortened link to your tweet where you followers can see on google maps where you where when you send tweet.

Those are two very cool options that drawled me to loopt social networking app. You will notice at the bottom from left to right the first icon is Tweets which you should currently be on next is Replies here you can see recent replies and by tapping on a reply that you want to read this will open new screen with the message, details of who and when the sent reply and at the bottom you have several options first from left to right tap the arrow in the box this will allow you to Repost Tweet, Post Link To Tweet or Mail Link To Tweet. Next is the link icon this icon is only highlighted and click able if there is a link in the reply that you are currently reading by tapping it you can Repost Link or Add to Instapaper. Your next icon is the star by tapping it you you save tweet to your favorites and finally the last icon is the backward arrow by tapping this icon you will be able to tweet a reply back to the person who originally sent you the reply.

Now back to main screen next option icon across the bottom will be Messages tap this to read Direct Message Received and Sent as well as compose a new direct message to send. The Star icon will be next in line by tapping the star you see all the tweets you have saved as favorites. The last icon is More once you click this there will be 5 options to choose from first being My Profile this will allow you to see a mobile scaled down version of your Twitter Profile with options to Reply, Send Direct Messages, Read recent Tweets, Search @Your Twitter Name to see you is RT Or Talking about your tweets you can view your Followers and who your Following. Go To User allows you to type in username and search to find that user on Twitter, Near by search and locates other Twitter Users in your local area. Trends lets you see the Public Timeline as well as the top 10 current trends and last but not least the search option here you can search keyword, phrases, usernames or whatever your interested in.

At $2.99 I would say to Twitteriffic move over buddy there is a new player in Tweet Town, This app is near perfect I can’t think of one thing this app lacks. It is simple and straight forward the interface is friendly and easy to use with some cool options not found on twitter itself. Hands down to the developers and I wonder if people from Twitter.com help in the development of this app because in my option it is by far the best iPhone Twitter App to date. And I noticed this app is being promoted on Twitter what is in it for them I wonder.
