### 5/5 — I just loved Twitterrific

*2023-01-19, version 6.3.10*

Now that Elon has killed API's for this app, I'm hoping that the wonderful folks at the Iconfactory will make a Mastodon app for iOS and macOS - I'd gladly subscribe. The Twitterrific experience was like no other for Twitter. It was fun, engaging, personal...it made you love Twitter. 
I've been using the first-party app to check in, and it's nowhere near as enjoyable. I want to read those that I follow, but in a way that I enjoy.
R.I.P., little Ollie. Maybe you'll live on as Tooterrific, Olliphant, or something completely new. You were, and will always be, the best. 🐦

### 3/5 — iPad version glacial update

*2022-12-19, version 6.3.10*

Use both the iPhone and iPad versions and the latter takes as long as 8 minutes or so to download new tweets to my feed, even after having used the app earlier the same day (my normal use is 2-3 times daily).  Phone version is never more than 1 or 2 minutes to update. Additionally, cannot leave the app or allow iPad to sleep, or the refresh quits, although I would guess that is due to stringent iOS memory mgmt and out of the apps hands. Means I cannot do anything else on iPad or just set it aside until feed is updated. Marker also no longer syncs between devices.  

For a while deleting and reinstalling the app would cure the issue for a day or so but that became tiring. 

Behavior predates Musk burning down the barn, so not a Twitter-side issue. This is my only complaint, otherwise love the feature set and performance.  5 stars if I was only using iPhone app.

### 4/5 — Great App! A Little Slow

*2022-03-11, version 6.3.6*

I have the one-time, paid version and I appreciate this app allows that option rather than forcing me to subscribe as I’m not able to commit financially to yet another subscription. 

My only complaint is that the app seems to be very slow when opening the Replies/Thread view when loading the replies or thread items. Incidentally, search results populate at an extremely slow speed if at all which is really annoying. I end up waiting so long that I just usually close my search and use the native Twitter app to do it. If these speed issues were fixed this would be a total 5-star experience.

### 4/5 — Really nice app, but with a couple issues

*2022-01-04, version 6.3.5*

I started having issues with the official Twitter app not showing me tweets. I’d leave the app overnight, and then opening it in the morning, it would hide all the overnight tweets under a “show more tweets” button. It’d go from 8h ago right to 10m ago with everything else hidden. Super frustrating, so I needed a different app. 

Twitterrific shows me every tweet! I could be off the app for a day, but then I can open it and have 700+ tweets waiting for me. 

My issues/requests (and sorry if these are already available, I’m still new to the app):

1.) When I open a tweet to read replies, they take for-ev-er to load. 75% of the time, I just close the tweet and don’t even bother reading replies. Same issue when going to someone’s account. Takes forever to load their timeline. 

2.) I wish there were different ways to sort replies. Official Twitter’s algorithm could be annoying with how they showed replies, but sometimes (actually, a lot of times) I don’t want to see them in order of most recent. I’d like to see them in order of most liked or oldest or…. etc. 

3.) It’d be nice to see the RT/like count without having to tap on the tweet. 

I like that I don’t see promoted tweets in my timeline. And the ad banner at the top isn’t distracting at all for me. Maybe I’ll eventually pay to remove it, but so far it hasn’t been annoying me. 

This app could be a perfect 10 with just a few tweaks!

### 3/5 — Ok at best, annoying at worst

*2021-09-14, version 6.3.3*

Title says it all. This lets you see your Twitter stream, however it also has a tendency to reset the point in the stream to over a month in the past requiring a lot of scrolling to read the latest tweets.

Update:

Disabling the option to sync reading position appears to have fixed this. I only have the one device so it appears to have at some point decided to somehow decide to change how it identifies itself, and for some awful reason this app appears to sync everything to the “device”that hasn’t been used rather than the most recent?  Pretty terrible decision there.

### 5/5 — Edit Your Posted Tweets; No Twitter Ads

*2021-09-06, version 6.3.3*

I’ve been trying several Twitter apps, and this is the one I’ve chosen. First off it’s ad sponsored free, so you can use all the features and then decide to subscribe. I also like how I can select four different tabs for the content I like to view, such as my favorited tweets, one or more of my Twitter lists, and my replies. These tabs make it much easier to access content I want see. 

Twitterriffic also allows for quickly editing a posted tweets. It deletes the tweets, but retains the original text so that you can edit. The app also color codes your tweet so you can quickly see your tweets and retweets. 

The hidden sidebar also allows for quickly accessing saved searches, your Twitter lists, and other parts of your account. Most importantly there are no Twitter ads in this app. The official Twitter app is showing like one ad every 2-5 tweets.  It’s very annoying.    

What want in this app: please show the number replies for a tweet. The video playback is sometimes slow. Create a gesture to quickly favorite a tweet, like double-tap it. It shouldn’t take two taps to favorite a tweet.

The developers should predict how-to videos for the app. I only see one.

Thanks for this app. I will be subscribing.

### 5/5 — What Twitter should be

*2021-08-27, version 6.3.3*

Maybe I'm turning into a crotchety old man or maybe it’s my OCD but I hate the way Twitter loads and displays Tweets. I want to pick up where I left off and read things in chronological order without a bunch of promoted Tweets trying to sell me health insurance or whatever else Twitter is pushing.

Twitterrific does exactly what I want. There’s an ad banner at the top that doesn’t distract me from what I’m reading, Tweets come in chronological order, and when I open it back up, I’m at the same spot I left off. 

This app lets cut through all the crap that populates Twitter and lets me get to exactly where I want to go.

### 2/5 — I love the app, but this new update is horrible.

*2021-05-24, version 6.3*

I now get the phrase “don’t fix what isn’t broken” because the update feels like it broke everything. First of all, the app no longer holds my place in the timeline no matter what I do. And the “jump to marker” button doesn’t do anything at all. When I press any of those buttons (including last read tweet) it just “guesses” and pushes me back about 10 tweets… which is the dumbest thing. 

It also took me forever to figure out how to look at replies to a tweet + how to look at threads. Maybe I’m doing it wrong? Either way, it’s just a mess. Nothing works. What’s the use to doing all these changes and adding new features if none of it works?

### 4/5 — Needs better navigation options

*2021-05-19, version 6.3*

I've been a long time twitterific user, and overall it's easily the best Twitter app on iOS. That being said the new navigation options are a bit baffling. Double tapping to jump to the top of the home screen was vital to using the app one handed on Max series phones, now using the pull down menu requires two hands and is down right clunky. I hope the devs can find a way to give us back navigation at the bottom of the app.

### 4/5 — Great App, Missing One Thing, Though

*2021-05-18, version 6.3*

Twitterrific is an excellent app.  As someone who hates the official Twitter iOS client and it’s privacy practices, I’m grateful for Twitterrific.  
However, it’s missing features that the official Twitter client has such as changing who can reply to your tweets and also the ability to add polls to your tweets and also view them as well as the ability to view who has liked your posts and other notifications aside from mentions, therefore I have docked it a star.
Also, it would be nice to have the option mute a user while still having mentions from them show up in your notifs like the desktop Twitter client.
If the missing features end up getting added to the app, then I will gladly bump the review up to 5 stars.
