One of my favorite ways to access Twitter is through Tweetbot because I feel like it’s an excellent and stylized way to use the micro-blogging service. That’s why I’m very happy to see that Tweetbot has landed on the iPad and that the 2.0 version is now available for the iPhone.
Tweetbot is a Twitter client that uses clean, useful designs and subtle sounds to make browsing Twitter an amazing experience. It’s very simple to read through you timelines, open links from tweets and even see the conversation history of tweets. Unlike the new Twitter apps, I believe Tweetbot packs both style and functionality in a neat little package.
The iPad app uses the tablet’s space well and you have all the usual actions and gestures that you’re used to if you have the iPhone version. If you’re a newbie, there are some quick instructions which make it simple to understand. The 2.0 version on the iPhone includes an updated timeline view, new thumbnails and more.
So, I now have my go-to Twitter app on my iPhone and the iPad but I’m still looking for some great solutions on Android and on PCs. What are some great Twitter apps that I should be using?
You can download the Tweetbot app for iPhone here or the iPad version here (iTunes link).
