Review: Twittelator for iPad (iPad)

Twittelator for iPad – Twitter Client (Big Stone Phone $4.99)


I know you have heard a lot from me already about the Twittelator Apps. I get excited about apps that work well and in particular about apps that I get a lot of use out of. In this case, Twittelator has always been a useful app for me and has only gotten better over time. This is NOT a Universal App. This is the iPad only version of Twittelator. There is also an iPhone version available for purchase as well as a free iPhone version. I use both the iPhone and iPad versions of this app, but they are two very different apps in how they function as well as how they look. Be sure to take a look at each app to see if it is right for you. The same core features are (mostly) available in both, but functionality they are very different apps.

Twittelator Pro (the iPhone version) was what first got me interested in Twitter. I had a great time sitting there on my iPhone and tweeting away. It is fully functional and provides the most amount of features (as far as I can tell) out of all the Twitter apps. With the release of the iPad came Twittelator for iPad. It is still fairly new so features are being added a little bit at a time, but consequently this version is not yet as mature as the iPhone version which has had a lot more time to develop into the app that it is today. But little by little it is coming along. The big plus with Twittelator for the iPad is the extra screen space which allows the app to do a lot more and look a lot better.

The app itself functions well for a Twitter app. I like how things are organized and how easy it is to navigate around. Additionally the developer is very responsive to issues with this app and is constantly making updates to fix it. The app was recently updated (ahead of the release of 4.2.1 for iPad) to bring multitasking, printing, Facebook integration and several other key features to the app. This developer is constantly on-top of what’s new and exciting in the twitterverse and that makes his app one of the top apps in the app store for Twitter and certainly my favorite. Using this app makes my twitter experience all that much more enjoyable, so much so that any other twitter clients I use can’t even come to close to comparing, they leave me disappointed in the end.

Review: Twittelator Pro (iPhone)

28 Nov

Twittelator Pro – Twitter Client (Big Stone Phone $4.99)


This is NOT a universal app, but it is worth buying for both the iPhone and the iPad if you use twitter a lot. This review will be solely about the iPhone version with the iPad version being covered at a later date. The iPad version is available for $4.99 as well. If you are familiar with this app, it is not hard to see why it is worth buying for both devices. There is also a free version available, more than likely it is limited in some way although I am not sure exactly what the limitations are but it certainly will give you a chance to try out the app and decide for yourself. This app is definitely worth the purchase. Every time a new twitter app has been released for the iPhone, I have tried it out. Sometimes to see if I am missing anything by sticking to Twittelator Pro, and other times because those apps promise some great new feature. This includes of course the official Twitter app, when it was first released and since then, I have tried it out a few times. However every single time, I end up back with Twittelator Pro.

This app has had a lot of thought put into it ever since it first debuted back in 2008. It started off as a feature rich, but unpolished app (visually) and has grown into a very nice, very functional and very feature rich app. I use it quite regularly on both my iPad and iPhone.  A lot of the features in this app were developed and supported even before twitter released support for them. For example geo tagging tweets, or even lists are features that this app implemented in one way or another prior to twitter doing so. I have a long list of features for this app so I’ll get right into them now.

*MY* Top 10 iPad Apps

14 Nov


Although there are many iPad apps that I really like and that will vary from category to category, there are several apps that I use on a very consistent basis (practically every hour of the waking day).  These are the apps that I like the most and get the most use out of.  For the sake of this post I will not be including any native apps in this top 10 list.  Obviously I use quite frequently apps like the Calendar app and the iPod app as well as apps like YouTube and Maps.  But the purpose of this list is to give you an idea of the App Store apps that I feel bring me the most value.  I will give you a short description of each and then later link to a full review of each app.  Every app that I list and/or review is an app that I have purchased.

Here they are listed in order of how much I use them, 1 being the most:
