Hi Carla, whichever of the apps you choose, you can learn all about Twitter, and a guide to almost all the accessible Twitter apps, in my Tweeting Blind book. It's a pretty comprehensive guide. It's available for reading on your iPhone on the website in my signature, and from National Braille Press. Happy tweeting.
