### 4/5 — Good!

*2017-01-24, version 1.7.2*

Pretty good alternative to TweetDeck, My only complaint for this app is that there doesn't seem to be a option to auto refresh the Tweets while i'm looking at them.

### 4/5 — Update It please

*2016-09-05, version 1.6.8*

I see there hasn't been an update in over a year but this app is still really good. Just needs GIF and video support and it can become a more popular twitter client

### 4/5 — Best Twitter App BUT it doesn't have notifications

*2015-11-13, version 1.6.8*

I've tried so many apps for Twitter and this, by far, surpasses all Twitter apps in the market! 

Read Later feature is a gem! Easy shortcut for tweet to be saved to your Pocket or Instapaper account. 

The only reason I couldn't give a 5 star is because it doesn't support notifications! 

Please consider having notification when somebody mentions you!

### 4/5 — Great Twitter Client for iOS6

*2015-04-30, version 1.6.5*

+ iOS6 support, much better than the only alternative afaik: using WebTwitter
+ Simple and intuitive interface
+ Ads are unobtrusive
- No DMs
- No push notifs

### 5/5 — Best best best

*2014-08-28, version 1.6.2*

The best twitter app for iPads ... Twitterrific that I used to use before this, is also o.k. Especially because of its clean interface and background updates.
But for reading and traversal without headaches, Janetter has been the best one for a long time.

### 4/5 — Pretty good! 👍

*2014-06-14, version 1.6.1*

I like it. Very easy to use. Only problem is I haven't found how to authorize my other two accounts. Just one. So I can't tweet from those as it says "Error posting tweet. Saved to drafts."

### 5/5 — The best

*2014-06-04, version 1.6.1*

Much better than the main client and the other alternatives I've tried.

### 5/5 — One of the best twitter apps

*2014-05-28, version 1.6.1*

This is the perfect twitter app for anyone who uses the service, hard or lite, not only on iOS, but on the desk top as we'll. for sure one of the best ways to use twitter.

### 4/5 — One of the Best

*2014-04-19, version 1.6.1*

It's almost a tie between Janetter and Tweetbot which I like the best... After trying a bunch of others. I wish the Pro didn't cost so much.

### 4/5 — Only four

*2013-09-06, version 1.5.4*

This app could be really good few minor improvements like automatically going to the top when the tweets update symbol signs on the keyboard when you're composing.  all in all it's a good app

### 4/5 — Best replacement for TweetDeck

*2013-07-28, version 1.5.3*

Ever since TweetDeck was stopped (stupid twitter got rid of the best twitter app), I've looked for a good replacement for my lists to be in columns, where I can choose the order of those columns (which I can't do in another app I've been trying)

This app has been the best that I've found to do what TweetDeck did.

The only thing is that it seems slower than TweetDeck did for loading new tweets, and sometimes it doesn't load new tweets for a column/list unless I manually refresh that column/list.

Occasionally it crashes.

If you're not using twitter with a column/list feature, then you are missing out.

### 3/5 — Crashes too often

*2013-07-10, version 1.5.2*

I love the layout. Easily my second favorite behind Tweetlist. Doesn't crash as much as Tweetdeck, but the crashing is what makes it my second favorite.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2013-08-08, version 1.5.4*

Unusable. Crashes when loading timeline. Only works if you restart the iPhone & no other apps r open. Im not going to keep restarting iphone everytime i want to check timeline or tweet something. must be bad memory management. Was looking for replacement for tweetdeck. Will try tweetbot next.

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2014-09-20, version 1.6.3*

I love this app. It has been my goto app for over a year. The new update for IOS 8 has been causing problems. I keep getting an error message when trying to update my feeds. Please fix!

### 2/5 — Could be better

*2013-12-22, version 1.6.0*

I got this so I could use the Mute function. Mute works well, but I think the design is not great(too much space used up by the sidebar), I don't like the color options, and sometimes it wants to just open the twitter app or tells me to sign in before I can retweet. It could be way better. The highlights on the side are confusing because I'm used to the twitter app where a highlight means there is something new to look at, but these have highlights all the time.

### 2/5 — Janetter

*2013-06-10, version 1.5.2*

App does nothing but crashes. I've tried re-downloading it multiple times and it still crashes. I REALLY want to use this app but unless the crash issue gets fixed, I'll be moving on to something else.

### 2/5 — Would be fantastic. However....

*2013-05-28, version 1.5.1*

It doesn't seem to stream your timeline. That is a huge problem for a power user like me. 

I like the desktop version, it is a decent replacement for the good air version of tweetdeck. (nothing will be quite as good but this is close) but the mobile versions just don't cut it.

### 3/5 — Decent app, but weird useless animations

*2018-08-22, version 1.8.6*

An otherwise decent app, but too many silly, distracting UI tricks. Flashes, animations.... just please stop. Why do I want the keys to turn blue when I tap shift? Why do I want the unread number to slide in? Neither helps me in any way and serve only to distract.

Design that doesn’t assist the user in achieving a goal is just egoism by the designer.

### 3/5 — Does what I need

*2015-05-02, version 1.6.5*

Colorful, easy to use, and despite the sample pages shown, you can view everything in English.  The main feed and lists do not coordinate.  If you read a tweet in a list it is not marked read in feed.    Clear and reload seems to have no effect.  Read also does not coordinate with Mac version.  Still, I like it better than other Twitter readers I have tried.

### 3/5 — Review

*2015-02-05, version 1.6.5*

It's pretty good, and user friendly. Only problem is that I have trouble uploading pictures, but other than that it's one of the best twitter clients I've used.

### 3/5 — Would have been perfect

*2015-01-14, version 1.6.5*

If it had push notification and an option to hide the menu and just see the timeline, this would have been the best tweeter client. Quick touch option is really awesome, but i can't use an application that's this quiet.

### 3/5 — Great features, not so great execution

*2014-10-26, version 1.6.5*

I really like the features offered: mult acct support, mult column and lists, etc. but when it constantly says "too many requests, please wait for about 1 minute" on my iPhone and iPad EVERY TIME I pull down to refresh tweet feed, then what's the point? Please fix this. 

Also, the autocomplete doesn't seem to work on hashtags and user prompts.

### 5/5 — old styled look

*2022-11-24, version 1.15.3*

i love the skeuomorphic look of it! that’s one thing i always look for in a twitter client and this is the only one on mobile that i’ve seen with it

### 5/5 — Smooth and intuitive

*2017-09-23, version 1.8.2*

Superior to Twitter's own app. Simple, but does what you need.

### 5/5 — Great interface

*2017-01-30, version 1.7.2*

The interface is logical, easy to understand and use.

### 5/5 — The Best Twitter Client Ever

*2016-10-16, version 1.7.0*

I've tried all of the Twitter clients out there, and this is hands down THE best one out there. Why? The images are after the Tweets, to the left, and smaller than usual, which is ideal. You can easily scroll though a Twitter list of users and just see their tweets, rather than see the tweets from everyone you are following. You can also mute using keywords and regular expressions, which is extremely helpful. You can also keep track of what Tweets you have read and what you have not. All in all, highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Keeps it simple

*2016-03-19, version 1.6.8*

Doesn't promise everything, and delivers well on what it promises.

### 5/5 — Best app for Lists

*2016-02-23, version 1.6.8*

Doesn't seem to be very popular app but honestly it does a great job for staying up to date on all your accounts, especially lists.

### 5/5 — The best for lists!

*2015-11-13, version 1.6.8*

I don't even know what other Twitter apps are for at this point. Why do they exist? Are they lost?

### 5/5 — The love of my life

*2015-09-23, version 1.6.6*

I have been using this app since 2013 and I feel complete with it. its simple and customizable

### 5/5 — The best

*2015-07-04, version 1.6.5*

I would rate this six stars if I could. I like layout of it and the fact that it has a bunch of features that are missing from every other Twitter app.

### 5/5 — AMAZING!!!!

*2014-10-17, version 1.6.4*

I've been using a lot of twitter client Apps and I can say that Janeter is one of the best that I tried. 100% recommended. It have a great interface and properties that makes twitter more easy and enjoyable to use.
