Twitterrific 3 isn’t that good. is a post from: worldwormweb

]]> Today I downloaded Twitterrific 3 for iPhone and was left very disappointed. It is clearly a step backward, gone are easy to get to filters for replies, DM’s, favourites and my own tweets. Also gone is the ability to mark tweets within the app. Resizing for easy viewing is gone as is multiple account support on the ad-supported version. Whilst list support has appeared, popular things that are missing include: ability to add personal bit.ly api, ability to geo-tag tweets.

I had a short conversation with someone from the @Twitterrific twitter account, here it is.

Luckily @Twitterrific made this a new download so I can still use the old one, but that doesn’t solve my problem with custom URL shortening. I liked this app as it allowed me to see that i wasn’t missing any tweets throughout the day if @twitter goes off, like yesterday when the Federal leadership #spill was happening here in Australia. Whilst they say improvement is coming, they have stripped it right back to not much more than m.twitter.com can provide. At the end they appear to be going with Twitters new in-house URL shortening, totally leaving out those of us with custom URL’s, is this a good thing? I don’t think so.
