Review: Twittelator for iPad (iPad)

13 Dec

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 iPhone Apps

16 Nov


It was by far a lot harder to choose my top ten iPhone apps than my top ten iPad apps. Not because they aren’t used or as useful or that I like them any less; but rather quite the contrary. The biggest problem I had was narrowing down the list and specifically weeding out ones that I really like but that have a limited use. Rest assured though, that I will at some point in a later post write more at length about the other apps as I think they are all news worthy in one way or another. For now I will be limiting the remainder of this post to the ten apps that I have chosen. I have not chosen any apps that are native to the iPhone despite how often I may use them.

One thing worth noting: ever since I started using my iPad I have started to move away from certain apps on my iPhone, and over to the iPad version of the same app. It is not that the iPhone isn’t worth mentioning, but simply that certain apps that would have made the list just 3 months ago, no longer do, simply because I use the iPad version now instead.  BeejiveIM is one of those apps.
