I quite like Tweetings, though Twitterrific is also a good option.

RE: starting to Twitter

I've always known Twitterrific to be a paid app. I paid for it way back when 
and I believe that this is still the case.

RE: starting to Twitter

[Cristóbal]

Tweetings was my go to Twitter app after it was apparent TweetList4 was 
abandoned. More and more however, I have found myself going back to 
Twitterrific. There were some scrolling bugs that I didn't care for, but have 
since been fixed in Twitterrific and it's gotten better at maintaining one's 
place. While I do like Tweetings a lot, there is way too much app crashing and 
hanging with VO that haven't really gotten better with updates. Also, I have 
noticed that with Tweetings, entire chunks of tweets will simply not show. If I 
don't check into it for a while and refresh the main home list, my tweets can 
jump from say three hours to one hour ago, etc. Twittterrific doesn’t' do this. 
Twitterrific also has the URL shortening which is very helpful to cut down on 
Voiceover chatter. That said, I do prefer Tweetings' way of reading out 
retweets and quoted tweets.
The official Twitter app was fairly decent for a short bit, but it's been 
forever since I really tried to use it as accessibility didn't get better and 
in fact, got worse.

Re: starting to Twitter

[Alex Hall]

Just for the record, I've never had Tweetings crash or do anything like that, 
on both an iPhone 5 and a 6s Plus. Gap-filling can be set to automatic, which 
should take care of the missing tweets. URLs I'm not sure of, but if you mean 
Twitterrific reads only the t.co links, I'd rather hear the short version of 
the actual link so I know where I'm going. Both are solid apps, and each has 
things the other lacks. All I can suggest is to try both, or at least find 
podcasts on both, to help make the choice.

Re: starting to Twitter

[Jonathan Mosen]

I find Tweetings absolutely rock solid for keeping my place. I use a lot of 
Twitter lists, and I find Twitterific doesn't do a good job of retaining one's 
place in lists. My only criticism of Tweetings is that opening links is 
unnecessarily cumbersome and takes too many taps, but it's a fantastic client 
overall.

RE: starting to Twitter

[Cristóbal]

I wasn't aware of the gap filling setting. I'll try that out. 
If I had to choose, tweetings would be the one  I'd go with at the end of the 
day. It offers a highly customizable experience.

Just for the record, I've never had Tweetings crash or do anything like that, 
on both an iPhone 5 and a 6s Plus. Gap-filling can be set to automatic, which 
should take care of the missing tweets. URLs I'm not sure of, but if you mean 
Twitterrific reads only the t.co links, I'd rather hear the short version of 
the actual link so I know where I'm going. Both are solid apps, and each has

RE: starting to Twitter

[Cristóbal]

The one aspect where I find  using Tweetings to be cumbersome and could use 
some improvement is with adding/removing users and managing them in lists. This 
was where TweetList and TweetList4 shined. It could be too that I just don’t’ 
know where and how to better do it within the app.

I agree. Tweetings in general is very good at keeping one’s place.

I find Tweetings absolutely rock solid for keeping my place. I use a lot of 
Twitter lists, and I find Twitterific doesn't do a good job of retaining one's 
place in lists. My only criticism of Tweetings is that opening links is 
unnecessarily cumbersome and takes too many taps, but it's a fantastic client 
overall.

[Greg Wocher]

Hello,
I do have a difficult time with tweetings keeping my place in the list. 
It never seems to go back to the right place after I go to a link from 
within the tweet. I also don't like how tweetings displays the time the 
tweet was sent. It will either say 1h or 32 meters instead of 1 hour or 
32 minutes. I use the native twitter app all the time and I find no real 
accessibility issues with it.

Hi Greg, there was a temporary issue affecting all apps in iOS 9, but as long 
as you have 9.1, once you return to the list of tweets after viewing a link, 
tapping the screen roughly in the centre should return focus to the right 
place. Works every time for me on two devices at least.
It's pretty cool that with iOS, we have so many accessible choices.

hello,
Ah I see what I was doing wrong. I am not tapping in the center of the 
screen. I do like tweetings plus when I was using Android tweetings was 
the client I used. On the PC I am using Chicken Nugget at the moment.

Hi Greg, there was a temporary issue affecting all apps in iOS 9, but 
as long as you have 9.1, once you return to the list of tweets after 
viewing a link, tapping the screen roughly in the centre should return 
focus to the right place. Works every time for me on two devices at 
least.

It's pretty cool that with iOS, we have so many accessible choices.

Hello,
I do have a difficult time with tweetings keeping my place in the 
list. It never seems to go back to the right place after I go to a 
link from within the tweet. I also don't like how tweetings displays 
the time the tweet was sent. It will either say 1h or 32 meters 
instead of 1 hour or 32 minutes. I use the native twitter app all the 
time and I find no real accessibility issues with it.


Regards,
Greg Wocher

better do it within the app.

I agree. Tweetings in general is very good at keeping one’s place.

I find Tweetings absolutely rock solid for keeping my place. I use a 
lot of Twitter lists, and I find Twitterific doesn't do a good job 
of retaining one's place in lists. My only criticism of Tweetings is 
that opening links is unnecessarily cumbersome and takes too many 
taps, but it's a fantastic client overall.

Just for the record, I've never had Tweetings crash or do
anything like that, on both an iPhone 5 and a 6s Plus.
Gap-filling can be set to automatic, which should take care of
the missing tweets. URLs I'm not sure of, but if you mean
Twitterrific reads only thet.co <http://t.co/>links, I'd rather
hear the short version of the actual link so I know where I'm
going. Both are solid apps, and each has things the other lacks.
All I can suggest is to try both, or at least find podcasts on
both, to help make the choice.

I've always known Twitterrific to be a paid app. I paid for it
way back when and I believe that this is still the case.

I'm one of the few who uses the Twitter official app on my 4S with
9.1 and it works oK. Is twitterific now free again? because
Ithink it
used to be, then it was paid, and I haven't heard as of yet
what's the
deal now with Twitteriffic?

Tweetings was my go to Twitter app after it was apparent
TweetList4 was abandoned. More and more however, I have found
myself going back to Twitterrific. There were some scrolling
bugs that I didn't care for, but have since been fixed in
Twitterrific and it's gotten better at maintaining one's place.
While I do like Tweetings a lot, there is way too much app
crashing and hanging with VO that haven't really gotten better
with updates. Also, I have noticed that with

about it! I will be using my iPhone 6 running 9.1. can anyone direct me to the 
easiest to use app and give me some pointers to start me off?

thanks in anticipation, Sandy
