Hi Jeremy, I really like TWITS, and have been using it every day for the last few weeks.
I am a looong time TW user. My previous solution was to host a classic TW file on dropbox, and access it through file://, however all of my browsers stopped being able to save for some java problem or another (I'm on a Mac, Chrome can't use Java, Safari and Firefox, even after authorizing the java saving plugin, stopped working). However, today I wasn't able to use the app, as I got this error: Only a limited set of users can receive access tokens while this app is in development mode Do you know how I can get access, or when this will improve? I really need my TW to work, for reading and writing! Thanks for the amazing work!
