Twitterrific: Tweet Your Way for Negative User Reviews
✓ Paying for the second time? NoI loved Twitterrific and I bought the older version. For the last year , new ads pollute the screen and the publisher wants to grab more money from the paying clients. Well that is capitalism at its worst. How is that justified? Don’t encorage that type of behaviour. Never.Version: 6.2
✓ Poorly implemented banner adsPreviously used this app and sent tips in, none of that matters with this new version with a very Poorly implemented dickbar at the top. Shocking and disappointing. App is good outside of this, really too bad..Version: 6.0
✓ Don’t know what happenedThis app used to work great but not so much now. It has great UI, too bad it takes forever for tweets to load (and sometimes they just don’t). I have used this app since 2012, unfortunately if I actually want to read tweets I can’t use it anymore. I have downloaded a new Twitter client for now but will keep this on my phone & check on it every so often to see if the performance improves. If it gets back to what it used to be I’ll be back but for now...it’s too frustrating..Version: 5.20.1
✓ OkGone back to stock app. I share a lot of tweets with specific users but when I type @ and start typing no users appear after first letter typed so I don't know what their correctly spelled Twitter handle is. I've looked on knowledge base and instructions are exactly what I've been doing without success. Pity because I would prefer to use this app. I'll try another instead.Version: 5.20.6
✓ Already purchased version 5 now have to purchase 6.Really disappointing. Same situation as other reviewers who have already purchased this app and now are expected to pay again, and given no choice. Not impressed at all. Version 5, which I happily paid for has been pulled from the AppStore. I was a real fan of Twitterrific, but this is totally unacceptable. I won’t be buying any of Iconfactory’s software again any time soon..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Don’t bother anymore; they aren’t trustworthySo Twitterrific and I have a long history. They effectively ended it today as I feel they broke the trust. Today they pushed Twitterrific 6 over the version I paid for and in six months will require me to pay for the application again. That goes against established practice on the App Store of releasing a new application you have to pay for as a new version. Camera+ 2 is a separate purchase from Camera+. I choose if I want to pay for a new version and my previous purchase isn’t taken away from me. Why on earth would I ever pay for a “forever” subscription which is really “until we feel like charging you again”. I won’t and I don’t encourage anyone else to either..Version: 6.0
✓ HORRIBLEWont let me change my loc on twitter i hate u.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Bought the full version but iPad still has adsI also have a problem adding my second twitter account. the Mac version I also bought works fine though.Version: 5.18.4
✓ Used to be good, alasI had used Twitterrific for a few years and found it good enough. I even purchased removal of ads back when that was ~$5. Single purchase, mind you. However, when the app switched to the subscription model, it started serving me pop ups demanding I subscribe. "You've helped out before, now help us again!" I decline, and before long (a day or two?) the pop up is back. If I recall right they're timed-- you have to wait a few seconds before you're allowed to say no. This is unacceptable. Yes, it's annoying and gets your attention and provokes a response-- mine was to delete the app and use a different one. I get that software development isn't cheap. But customers are also not endless wells of money that need harassed until they fork it over either. Now, for all I know this was a special case-- I'd managed to restore purchases so I wasn't seeing any ads, so the pop ups may have been something not many people get. Still, the recurring pop ups are a shady move. I probably would have considered keeping the app and eventually subscribing were it not for those pop ups! Frankly, I'll avoid anything published by Icon Factory because of it. Those constant pop ups are just no way to treat customers..Version: 6.0.2
✓ AvoidKeeps crashing.Version: 5.18.3
✓ Suddenly...ads!I’ve been using and telling everyone I know to use Twitterrific since April 2014. Even when twitter broke many of the features for third party apps I still was sold because of the unified, chronological timeline with no promoted tweets and an awesome dark mode. After a week of hyping their new release and showing off screenshots on twitter, the update to 6.0 came out today and I quickly installed it to be greeted with a banner ad inconveniently placed right below the compose a tweet button. The garishly bright colors make dark mode pointless. Oh, and then I was prompted to “finally” get rid of the ads for the low, low price of thirty dollars. Thirty dollars! That’s just silly. Oh, I can do it on “subscription”, and in either two or three years I’ll have paid more than the lifetime cost. I wouldn’t be nearly as upset with the update of Icon Factory had either shown screenshots with the ad bar or mentioned before hand that updating would potentially remove any previous no ad features for their longest time customers. Instead they hyped the features and there’s no going back because although they call it an “all new product”, the older one is not available. Clicking on Twitterrific 5 in my purchases takes me to the new one. Boo! I’ll leave three stars because the features are great (edit tweets? Only here), but the new forced update putting ads in for some of their oldest users is a pretty ugly move..Version: 6.0
✓ A real jokeNo badge, no notifications whatsoever.. What’s the point? How am I supposed know about my account activity? I won’t open the app every 2 minutes..Version: 5.20.5
✓ Developer is a cheat!Already paid to remove ads, now asked again. Disgraceful!.Version: 6.0.1
✓ Horrible new ad systemThese gigantic, colour-changing ads at the top of the feed are incredible obnoxious and distracting, to the point where the app feels unusable and tacky. Thanks for giving me a good reason to revisit the official Twitter app..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Expected to pay AGAINUpdate forces you to pay again (won’t restore purchase), or you can pay a subscription fee. NO ONE wants to pay a sub to READ TWITTER. That’s why we paid a (supposedly) one-time fee to purchase the app. Already uninstalled and looking for an alternative..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Overly complicated for use on Apple WatchBefore I can use it, I have to “enable push”. On what? The phone? The watch? It doesn’t say. The fact that I had to Google how to make this stupid app work shows that it’s poor design. Good design is intuitive, and this is not. Also what I found out after Googling it is even more horrific, this company put “push” behind a paywall. Instead of doing normal iOS things like every other app, they are doing their own thing to squeeze every last dime out if you. They don’t have to require their own “push” service, but they do so they can control every aspect of the app. EDIT: In response to what the developer said, that’s simply not true. You’re lying to people in order to charge them for something they don’t need. If you can display content on the iPhone app without you "push" then you can do the same on the Apple Watch app. Also you don’t need to run your own database, since you’re just piggybacking off the Twitter database. The ONLY reason you’d "require" these things is to force people to pay a premium to have Twitterrific on their watches..Version: 5.18.2
✓ Need push notification ASAP!!And why does it crash every time I hold on the camera button when composing a tweet?.Version: 5.0
✓ I have purchased the app and now it displays adds again!I bought the app some time ago and now it displays ads and wants payment to remove them again! This is a scam!!!.Version: 6.0
✓ Lovely but don’t add things and make us pay to take them awayGreat app. In fact I loved it so much I paid £4.99 to get rid of the ads and gain the extra features. Now I’m a little annoyed that a “tip” jar menu has appeared and the o my way to get rid of it is to pay at least 49p per month. I know it’s not much but it’s the principle..Version: 5.19.2
✓ Deceptive updateKind of deceptive to take the ad free, old version of Twitterrific and “update it” to an ad supported or paid version. Not too happy..Version: 6.0
✓ Unfair pricing structureI paid for version 5. I also paid to crowdfund the Mac app. I have no problem paying for the apps I love and the developers I wish to support. Version 6 should’ve been rolled out as a new app and allowed those that paid for 5 to stick with it. Also, the subscription model is a significant change from previous pay structures. I don’t think this app brings enough to the table to warrant this change. $40 forever... except that this company has now taught us that they don’t really honour that concept, and a time will come when we have to pay again. Not much respect for the paying customer here. I’m done with this app.Version: 6.0.1
✓ AverageUnreliable when given commands to retweet, delete, favourite etc. usually delayed or unable to do it at all. The latest update has really messed up the app for me at least, citing network connection faults and unable to be used. Lucky I had downloaded before it forced people to in-app purchase to remove ads. Otherwise, good-looking interface and generally fast to refresh feed..Version: 5.7.1
✓ Long locationWhy did they remove the long location, it was so useful for us. revert it back to before pls..Version: 6.2.1
✓ Useless without notificationsTwitter needs to make this happen again..Version: 5.20.4
✓ Not paying twiceSo, a once “go to app” for Twitter is now going in the delete bin. I purchased version 5 and enjoyed it, until Twitter made changes that rendered Twitterrific pretty much standard. Now version 6 comes out and they want a monthly subscription for something that isn’t as good as what I paid for in the 1st place. Having the choice of about half a dozen icons, doesn’t quite swing it for me 😳😳..Version: 6.0.3
✓ Paid for the app, and can’t download it.Ads unless I subscribe or pay another $40. 👎🏻.Version: 6.2.1
✓ What happenedI used to be able to do long bios past the character limit but not anymore idk whats wrong wit it.Version: 6.2.1
✓ ICloud sync only.Can no longer sync across devices unless you use iCloud. Not good..Version: 6.0
✓ A massive waste of money for an iwatch appI just purchased this for my iwatch £2.99 (push notification buttons) and nothing works except a flying bird occasionally......I have given it 1 star as it works fantastic on the iPhone and it is good for that.... (and which you don’t have to pay any money) I would really like my money back as I feel it’s been wasted...... (it definitely does not do what it says it will do on an iwatch (as it does nothing on mine)...I really thought that this would be a good investment as we do not get twitter anymore ..... how wrong was I ☹️.Version: 5.19
✓ Not working on iPad 3Always crash everytime I tried to open the app on iPad 3. Please fix this..Version: 5.5.2
✓ I love the app, but this new update is horrible.I now get the phrase “don’t fix what isn’t broken” because the update feels like it broke everything. First of all, the app no longer holds my place in the timeline no matter what I do. And the “jump to marker” button doesn’t do anything at all. When I press any of those buttons (including last read tweet) it just “guesses” and pushes me back about 10 tweets… which is the dumbest thing. It also took me forever to figure out how to look at replies to a tweet + how to look at threads. Maybe I’m doing it wrong? Either way, it’s just a mess. Nothing works. What’s the use to doing all these changes and adding new features if none of it works?.Version: 6.3
✓ So I have a questionSince I installed this , I also chose the bluebird donation tier because I wanted to give at least something . Anyway I reinstalled this so I could give the Apple watch thing a try also , and it has not worked in the past 3 weeks . It always gives me some sort of error . So I deleted the app and installed again. The "tip" thing is back , and there is no restore option (dunno if that's even possible with an IAP) Anyway I had to track down my history and see which tier I chose, and pick that again to avoid being double charged . Just today , after installing the most recent update , the tip thing is back yet again . So again I will choose my level . Is this going to keep coming back every update ? Oh and btw the Apple watch thing still doesn't work . I have a Series 3 non LTE version and it's still tossing me connection errors . Any idea why ?.Version: 5.17.8
✓ Unethical upgrade practiceReally guys? I get development costs money, but leaving version 5.x users completely in the lurch by essentially migrating them to a ‘free version’ and having to pay to remove ads, with no ability to re-download an older version is really stooping to a new low..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Twitterific - the Valueless PurchaseI purchased this app some time ago to remove advertising. It’s been a great app and has a user friendly format that I happily paid for and enjoyed. Imagine my surprise today to find banner ads in my paid app. Upon further investigation I found my paid app (v5.7) has been dumped with an update and replaced with Twitterrific v6, an app that looks the same, works the same, but is apparently completely different and must be purchased again. Now my paid app comes with banner advertising, and it also includes frequent payment reminders. Apparently my purchase had a use by date they forgot to mention. Twitterific- If you’re going to create a brand new app and ask me to pay for it, at least have the decency to make it look different..Version: 6.0
✓ It’s the tab at the top that killed it for meGreat App, however I can’t stand the tab being positioned at the top, my thumb having to stretch up there is uncomfortable. I don’t think you took those of us with bigger phones into consideration. The app does what it should. Those of you with smaller phones will defo enjoy it..Version: 6.2.2
✓ Please updateI don’t know whether to give it one or five stars, so I am compromising by giving it three stars because the last update was four months ago, and even if I read the messages, they still show up as unread. I don’t even get notifications. Please update..Version: 6.2.1
✓ AdsPaid for a no-ads app. Ads are back in. Developer should be banned..Version: 6.0
✓ When is forever not forever?The app has always been a bit buggy but generally, once I had paid to remove ads, it was less irritating than the official Twitter app. The last update however, without any warning, has reinstated the adverts and apparently I have to give them more money for what I had already paid for. Goodbye Twitterrific hello Tweetbot....Version: 6.0.1
✓ Lousy updateKind of a terrible update. If you’d wanted to go to a subscription model that’s fine. But not for an app people already paid for. Why not leave a legacy app and push new features on your sub model? Going to find a different Twitter app now, sorry..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Pay More, Again?I downloaded the first version of this app and paid for the upgraded version - which only lets me post plain text and an image. Anything like locations etc is in this version, which asks me to pay again. If I had known this app was going to scam me out of more money, I would NEVER have downloaded or purchase the upgrade to begin with. It's be another story if the upgrade is transferred. Only scumbags ask for a subscription fee without even refunding for prior services!.Version: 5.16.7
✓ Version 6 UpdateI understand companies modifying their business models to subscriptions. It’s a much more sustainable option. However, it shouldn’t be done in a way that degrades the experience for customers that paid in the past. This update significantly degrades the experience. The update includes many new features and deserves a new version number but forcing this new business model on existing users is a bad move. The grace period is nice but does nothing for your most loyal customers. I would have been fine with a dismissible banner ad for a new version, even a persistent one within settings, but can’t get behind obtrusive new ads you have to pay to remove. It’s cheaper for me to buy versions of a competitor app on all platforms than the remove these ads for good so I will be doing that. Goodbye Twitterific..Version: 6.0
✓ From five stars to none if I couldTruly am sick of being asked to rent every app, song and video these days. And I've always refused to rent books. Libraries are quite a different and enabling thing. Twitterific gave no warning to those of us who had already bought the app that it was going to be switched on us. Choice? No. You took away our right to choose not to update based on information *you* chose not to give. We can't rollback. Oh, we don't have to pay if we accept ads in what we bought as an ad-free app? How nice of you. DELETED. I'll never use it again. If you wanted to bring out a completely new version, do that. You've done it before. Even make clear a new version has ads and a subscription model. But this? You've mugged me - taken what I paid for - and it shouldn't be allowed. And this isn't even a radically new version. You've just tried to get more cash out of us. Disgusting..Version: 6.0.1
✓ No notificationsI would give the app 5 stars if I could get notifications. Loved the interface, the ease of accessing lists etc. However, I shouldn’t have to keep the Twitter app to see if I have notifications, to then open them in Twitteriffic. So it’s bye bye to Twitterrific and hello Tweetbot. Two apps for one thing is clunky..Version: 5.20.6
✓ Ads!Get rid of them!.Version: 6.0.2
✓ SketchyI paid for the old version, I paid for the OS X version. Now I’m supposed to spend $40. Very sketchy way to treat your customers..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Latest Version is Unusable!I love Twitterific; I really do. I find it to be much more functional than the official Twitter app and much more streamlined than Tweetdeck. HOWEVER. I don't know what happened in the last update, but I can't keep the app running on my phone without crashing for more than a couple of minutes. Forget trying to reload, reply, favourite or retweet anything either-- all of these things make the app crash. I really do hope that the developers can fix this soon, because this update has made this app completely unusable and is forcing me to go elsewhere..Version: 5.2.3
✓ Not working.The app has not been working since the last update. Stuck on a black screen with only the name showing. Needs an update to fix..Version: 5.19
✓ Almost worth having.I like this app. The user interface is intuitive and it doesn’t take long to learn. It’s a customisable app, with several fonts from which to choose and two options for how much space to have between lines of text. However, although there are notification settings for direct messages, replies, likes, retweets etc, the app doesn’t notify you when people you follow post a tweet. For me, that feature is a fundamental requirement. It absence is a deal-breaker. Pity..Version: 5.18.3
✓ DissapointedI wish I could give you guys less than 1 stars, you betrayed the years I had been supporting you guys, I originally bought the app for the price of 1.99 before even the the tip jar existed!!! And when it was introduced I even donated since I always loved this flawless app, but you guys sure didn’t last long enough to destroy that trust by changing the app and making it just a money dumpster, lol 30$ for lifetime or even a 9.99$ annually or I could care less how much you ask for the app now, the thing is that you guys downgraded me to nothing and asked for more when I already gave all. Your competition a.k.a tweetbot has been loyal with it’s price and the features the offer have been the same since your own existence. So sad and disappointed, you killed the app and you killed a loyal customer, the worst part is that the message is going to be ignored and will go unnoticed.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Ads despite previous purchaseHaving previously paid for this app, I was surprised to find that, following the automatic update to version 6, I was reverted to ‘unpaid’ status - complete with ad banners and requests to re-purchase or pay a monthly subscription for the (same) app. This is a pretty cheeky move - and unfair to its longtime and loyal user base (having bought several other apps from this developer). I would have happily continued to use version 5, and perhaps would have looked at version 6 if compelling. However, I very much resent being forced into this position without any warning, and no ability to revert to an earlier version. Very disappointed with this move and will sadly be looking elsewhere..Version: 6.0.1
✓ NoIve paid for this app and it’s updates about 3 times since it was released, used it again today for the first time in a while and there’s a huge add banner across the screen the constantly serves add for apps. Annoying! I don’t mind adds in free stuff at all or even in paid stuff given a choice but this is crappy, it takes up to much screen space. I’ll move back to the official app this much cleaner interface..Version: 6.0.4
✓ Mugged offLike many others, I feel totally mugged off with the update. I’ve previously paid for the full app, so to then be surprised to be asked for MORE money to RENT it, I feel totally mugged off. I have no issue paying for apps. I have no issue with subscribing to apps (Carrot Weather for example). I have a major problem with paying up front for an app in the belief that it was a one off, to then have an additional subscription foisted on me. If they really wanted to go subscription then they should have released a new app and given people the choice. Bad form Icon Factory..Version: 6.1.2
✓ Not greatIt gets rid of ads, but that is pretty much the only positive. Threads are a nightmare and the interface e is grossly overwrought..Version: 6.2.2
✓ Unable to even open the app since the latest update.Unable to even open the app since the latest update. Wish I hadn't enabled auto-update if they were going to mess with a good thing..Version: 6.0
✓ Not paying anymoreI've paid for the last few versions of this app to support, and now a subscription? I'm out, and will just use the official app. There's too many subscriptions in the app store, and I don't need this one. So I bought the app just to get ads and reminders to subscribe? Yuck, no thanks.Version: 6.0.4
✓ Betrayal of trust, support, and user experience.I chose Twitteriffic because of supporting the Icon Factory crew that has been a dedicated Mac developer for years. I have appreciated their attention to detail and friendly approach. But this new version is not only greedy, it’s horrible UI to force you to want to get rid of the garish and obnoxious banner ad at the TOP of the feed. And since I know this developer knows UI on an expert level, I know why they did it—to force people to buy. And then there is their shameless sales speech where they offer no real compelling reason to pay for their product. It’s basically a plea that boils down to: “C’mon on dude buy our app, be cool!” Shameful and shameless. Uninstalled and back to Tweetbot or another app..Version: 6.0.1
✓ ‘Update’ is really a brand new version!Really disappointed that the developer has released an ‘update’ to Twitterrific 5 that invalidates previous purchases. Now on version 6 I am being asked to pay to turn off adverts! This SHOULD have been released as a brand new App so that buyers of version 5 can continue to use an advert free version. I might have bought version 6 as Twitterrific is still great but due to this dirty trick I have bought Tweetbot instead..Version: 6.0.2
✓ Why do I have to pay again?Like many others, I paid for this app a while ago and I’m being asked to pay to remove ads again. Really Twitterrific?.Version: 6.0
✓ Old interface pleaseTwo biggest features I used this app was for 1) access to saved searches 2) clear high lighting of what I had read and what was was not in main feed and saved searches. . This second item is completely broke. Please fix..Version: 5.2.2
✓ Pay, pay and pay again.‘Updated’ the app and now find out it’s a new version which has banner ads needs to be paid for again and it’s a hell of a lot more expensive that it used to be. The info for this appears a long way down the release notes. It should have been right at the top in bold type. If it had been, I would never have pressed the update button. App is now being deleted..Version: 6.0
✓ DisappointedI loved Tweetbot 5 and think the developers do great work here and on their other apps, but switching out my paid version for a new one without the benefits I bought isn’t cool. Their switch to a “lifetime” IAP or subscription feels designed to work around all the previous paying users purely so they get the benefit of T5’s historical reviews and App Store placement. I would probably have bought T6 anyway to support them, but this underhanded move has made me choose to switch to Tweetbot instead..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Great app, terrible priceGreat app if you can stand the banner ads at the top, developer asking upwards of $40 or a subscription fee to remove them. Huge letdown for such a well-designed product. Uninstalled..Version: 6.0.2
✓ Great when it worksI've just recently upgraded from the original, but am very glad I kept the original in case anything went wrong. Because it does. Every day. When T5 works it's wonderful and everything I need from a Twitter client, but it seems incredibly buggy. Whether this is down to ios8 or what, I don't know, but I'm driven back to the original when this version refuses to load, 4-5 times a day. I've deleted and reinstalled, I don't want to have to do this every time it freezes and dies. Please sort it out!.Version: 5.7.6
✓ Not goodI paid for the app, and now they decided to extort $40 again..Version: 6.0.2
✓ Missing FeaturesI expected a third party app like Twitterrific to be at least as good as the genuine Twitter app. I like the interface and the ease with which a tweet can be erased or amended but unfortunately, it appears that I can no longer either see or respond to Twitter polls. Although such shortcomings are said to be common to third party Twitter apps no mention is made of this and its up to the user to fully evaluate the app before deciding to buy the in-app upgrades. This may be due to the absence of an API from Twitter but I feel it should be made clear that some functionality is missing..Version: 5.20.3
✓ Disappointing following upgradeI have been using this App for many years and it is excellent. I paid for the last upgrade and now find that following the introduction of V6 that I am asked for a further payment to remove the ad banner once again. I don’t think this is justified for existing users. I also note that there is now a disclaimer stating the one off payment is only for the current version so be warned !.Version: 6.0.1
✓ Beware when purchasingI like Twitterrific, I like it so much I paid for version 5. However, with the introduction of version 6 it has decided that my previous purchase no longer counts and it is asking me to buy it again, but this time for one-time price of £30. Except that £30 only lasts until they come out with version 7, whenever that might be. Version 6 adds nothing mind blowing over version 5. Full aspect ratio pictures are nice but not £30 nice and there appears to be no way to revert back to version 5. It’s a better Twitter client than Twitter’s but it ain’t £30 better, especially when that £30 will count for nothing when version 7 is foisted upon us..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Twitter did the right thingTwitter removing features from 3rd party apps was obviously a good thing. Look how GREEDY this app has become. People purchased and supported the app in the past and now instead of asking for a reasonable price. They ask for £28?! There’s greed. And then there is GREED. I honestly hope no one supports this app anymore. Disgusting developers..Version: 6.1.6
✓ Nothing to recommend itUgly, clunky UI. Doesn’t do anything better than the official twitter app..Version: 5.19.2
✓ Previous purchaseAds are being served in spite of previous purchase. Apparently changing the version number means it's a whole new app. Very disappointing..Version: 6.0.2
✓ DisappointedDon’t advertise as free and then charge for using on Apple Watch. This is called bait and switch. Very disappointed in this!.Version: 5.18.2
✓ The App Needs Notifications Incl.I paid $45.19 (Canadian) because I thought I was going to get a few more features, but all it got me was to rid the tiny ad boxes at the top. I STILL have to use Twitter itself in conjunction with this app. This app lags a few minutes behind; it’s not in real time. At the very least, my $45.19 (Canadian) should pay for REAL TIME notifications, to make it worth $45.19 (Canadian) so that I don’t have to jump back over to Twitter..Version: 6.3
✓ Sketchy Pay to PlayIn the App Store, there isn’t an obvious mention that this is a crippled app and you need to pay for all the features. However, once you install it, it becomes quite evident you need to pay (a whole lot!) to get the full version. I’m not sure how the dev’s decided that $40 is a fair price. Mind blowing!!.Version: 6.1.6
✓ Not worth it.Seeing the “development progress” over the last few years it’s an easy “No”..Version: 6.2.1
✓ Hmmmm...Hard to see what all the fuss is about..Version: 5.0
✓ Lost purchaseWith them changing from 5 to 6, there’s now advertisements again even though I’ve previously paid. Poor form..Version: 6.0.1
✓ So were being duped into a paid version upgrade ?So if I see this properly, my paid version five app which works fine and I’m fine with, cannot be downloaded once is auto updates to a different version which requires a different license? If that is the case both apple and the icon factory need their head examining. It would mean that people who have auto update turned on have now lost the app they paid for, without possible recourse. There shouldn’t be any way Apple allow a developer to take a paid app and version it up into a new app with different pay model. This is a super shady business practise from the icon factory. And it’s downright wrong from apple. I’m not against creating s new app with subscription model. I am against a bait and switch forced upgrade with no chance to go back to the previously PAID app until it naturally becomes obsolete (not deliberately obsoleted as many app devs do) Back to Tweetbot or one of the many many other apps that serve repackaged twitter content without inline ads and screwing their customers..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Paid App, now with intrusive ads.I’ve used this application for what seems like forever. Great, simplistic design which I was happy to support with the one off payment. They are now paywalling advert removal, which is awful on a paid app, but to make matters worse it’s not even a one off payment... twitter’s a good time killer but not something I’m invested in enough that I’d subscribe to get an average core experience. Hopefully there will be enough backlash that they’ll remove this addition..Version: 6.0
✓ $40!Forever I will NOT spend $40 to check Twitter!.Version: 6.2
✓ RobberyUpdate to the app that makes you have to pay all over again. Cant even get the old app that i paid for back. Big F U from Twitterrific = Bye Bye app!!.Version: 6.0
✓ Thinking of deleting this app after previous updateI have been a huge fan of this app until now. The last update may have fixed bugs, made performance improvement, and other things, however, it has broken push notifications completely. Whenever you turn put unifications on for any of your accounts, the app will indicate that push notifications are on, then turn them off about two seconds later, making pushed unifications completely useless, and this app completely useless as well. Someone who relies heavily on push notifications did tell me when such things as direct messages are coming in, I find this app cannot fit my needs anymore, making me consider if the money I spent on it was worth it..Version: 5.18.3
✓ Fell victim to the subscription pricing schemeDecently designed app, but just became the latest app to start collecting monthly subscription fees for optimal use. It’s nice that there’s an option to pay outright, but the price is steep, especially compared to the competition which, frankly, functions well enough to make me switch away. The most egregious offense, though, is that this was not released as a new, separate app. It was pushed as a version update to the existing app, meaning that for those of us who already purchased it, we’re now being asked for more money to get rid of bright ads stuck right at the top of the screen. Even if I paid the outright “lifetime” purchase price, there’s no way I’m trusting the dev to not introduce some other sort of forced monetization scheme down the road...since that’s exactly what they did to previously paying customers with this update..Version: 6.0
✓ Double Dipping DevelopersI understand that it costs money to develop apps but I am disappointed that with the latest update I am being asked to repurchase an app that I already owned. Twitterrific is a good app and does its job well but $43 to restore what I have already paid for in the past means I’m looking for a new Twitter app..Version: 6.0
✓ The location function is gone :(Please bring it back it was the only thing appealing about this app.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Well I do like the cheatingTime ago I contributed for twitterrific and everything was ok and is supposed you were going to have updates in future and all. Now I opened a couple times this week and the last week and I note the developer did something to force you again to buy subscriptions you already paid. This last times I used I didn’t have ad bars nothing all well, because I paid it time ago. But suddenly I noted today a corruption in my app like a crash after update, then I opened again and I noted the developer made the trick to force you to pay again for a new system of registration. I tried to click on restore purchases and of course is a new system and what I paid time ago was a lie. The developer from time to time change app to force you pay again. Don’t believe what it says the app about there is a purchase for life. Is a lie, in one year or two you will be assaulted again. This is dishonest..Version: 6.0.4
✓ I couldn't even begin to like this app...So I literally just downloaded this app minutes ago. It was feat. in a write up in the app store. It looked to have nice features, separate from the actual Twitter app, like the ability to edit your tweets, so I said heck why not. I open the app, login & BOOM! There's a huge ad bar at the top of the screen. So big, it completely covers half if not all of a tweet, depending on length. I can't even appreciate looking at the layout or design, colors or anything else because the ad bar is so distracting. Ugh. I have several apps with ad promo bars but guess what? They're tiny and all at the BOTTOM. I'm so mind boggled, I can't remember if the OG Twitter app has an ad bar. If so, it's barely noticeable. I'm guessing you'd have to pay to remove the ad bar and I don't mind donating to small-time app developers but I don't know about this app. I also read a couple of reviews and people mentioned how they try to get you to pay to access certain features or abilities. Some paid twice due to tier mix-ups. Is there not a "refresh purchases" button? Sounds like this developer is just plain greedy. Also one thing I immediately noticed is the timeline feed is slow to refresh. If it refreshes at all. I'm still seeing tweets from two days ago...when it should be from a few seconds ago. Smh..Version: 5.20.6
✓ Annoying and persistent banner.Worse than official Twitter app.Version: 5.20.6
✓ Accessibility of TwitterificThis app is not bad and is certainly more accessible than Twitter. However the problem still lies when you search for something it does not speak out what I have found. It needs to work better with apples voice over..Version: 5.17.9
✓ Can I downgrade to 5Twitterrific 5 had everything I need. Why would I want to keep paying for something I’ve already paid for? How can I downgrade??!!.Version: 6.0
✓ It’s okay but the marker doesn’t work….….so even though I’ve read tweets up until a few hours ago it still goes to the last tweet I sent. The only reason I used this app was to make it easier to see the tweets since the last time I looked. This is supposed to be a feature but it doesn’t work..Version: 6.3.3
✓ DisappointingDisappointed, I purchased the full version several updates ago, I now find I don’t qualify for the non ad version. Very POOR..Version: 6.0
✓ Takes Literally Minutes To RefreshEDIT: well, what do you know, the app once again either fails to load tweets or take literal minutes. Please beware giving this consistently inconsistent company your money. App regularly stops working as advertised. Frustrating. Works well at times, clunky others. For the last few weeks it suddenly forgets which theme you’re using and forces you to manually change it back, even if you were using it a few seconds earlier. Makes no sense, but me thinks if I upgrade it would magically work again. Developers deserve money, but the app seems to have issues a lot so that’s what prevents me from spending $ on it..Version: 6.1.6
✓ So wee paid and now we need to pay again ?I paid back in time for this app. We support you to go where you are now. And you, all what you do is rob us again ? What’s wrong with you ? Why you don’t consider customers ? I really hope you’ll lose all of your customers. You don’t deserve us. Shame on you..Version: 6.3.5
✓ Dangerous to updateI paid for Twitterific years ago, and was mostly happy with it (except for its bookmark handling with poor connectivity, about which their support was particularly oblivious). But I upgraded the app recently, which was an irrevocable mistake—even though I paid for an ad-free version, I now have to subscribe or pay an extra $30 to get back what I paid for. So before you ever upgrade Twitterific again, make sure you have also bought iMazing for your Mac, and have made a copy of the last safe version of Twitterific. Doing this after you update is too late, even if you have the safe version on another device. (I happen to have a really ancient version, Twitterrific 5.13.4.ipa, on my Mac, which I’ll try.).Version: 6.1.6
✓ A GREEDY RIP-OFF!!!I understand te need for support and revenue to maintain a developer. But this is the third time they ask for a full price (double this time) to get rid of ads! I bought it once for 15$, then again after upgrading to 5.0 they asked me for 15$ again! Now for 6.0 they want 10 bucks every year or 30$!!! This is downright greedy and disrespectful. Beware! They will always ask for full price every major update now worse with subscription and will bait you with no ads “forever”. I’m deleting and goin back to tweetbot and never buy from this Dev again. It’s not the first time this happens. I bought CandyBar and they cut support ending the app. Oh, I hope PlayDate bombs in a time of smartphones and Nintendo Switch..Version: 6.0.1
✓ No thanksPaid $40. Want refund. No notifications is a deal-breaker. But the whole app is meh.Version: 6.3.6
✓ Search is brokenSo far the app seems ok except the search is broken. I search for something I know has heaps of results and I get two from this app. I tried to search for Twitterrific to tweet them about it but nothing came up. Most searches I do have zero results in this app and thousands in others. Could not find any documentation that says there’s a trick to searching. If something needs fixing or I have missed something, great. If not I’m going to be asking for money back..Version: 5.18.4
✓ Ads are back...I wish I had checked out what was new before updating to the newest version of Twitterrific... there’s now a banner ad right at the top of my news feed... and unlocking is going to be $40 for the one-time payment? What a joke... I bought and paid for Twitterrific once already. I wish I could downgrade back to version 5... I won’t use this app anymore with the ads and “reminders” to give them $40!.Version: 6.0
✓ Ads are annoying. Functionality isn’t as good as the actual Twitter appGet rid of the constant ad banner. Very irritating. App is worse than the actual twitter app.Version: 5.20.6
✓ After updating to newer versionI have an iPhone SE and this app was starting to get really slow over the years when opening and downloading newer tweets. As of now, Twitterrific 6.x, I cannot open even open the app at all with a load time of over three minutes and force quitting or force crashes the application. Hoping the new update would fix this small issue but to no avail. I check on the App Store to see if my phone is still compatible and said it works. Hhmmm.....Iconfactory does not have any email address for support from their website for me to contact, unless I go to Reddit and I do not even use reddit. So, anyone from the Iconfactory company, please contact me here. Thanks..Version: 6.0.1
✓ Very disappointedAfter one of the recent updates there is now an add that pops up at least once a day, sometimes more if you use the app more frequently, to buy this app. Doesn’t matter what you are doing, this ad cuts right in and blocks you from doing anything. It’s become extremely annoying, so I am switching back to the FREE app Twitter offers. There is no reason to need to charge for this app, there are not that many extra features compared to the Twitter app itself. And to constantly cram it down our throats is just plain disrespectful. Just because you won an award doesn’t mean you app is charge worthy..Version: 6.0.2
✓ Please...... remove the tip jar. It's super annoying. We already paid for the software once. Also - stop using the release notes to beg people to pay more via the tip jar. Also, please stop prompting people to leave a review..Version: 5.20.4
✓ Shady changesThey changed to a subscription-based revenue model while ignoring the fact that many of us purchased the app outright. Yes, that may have been years ago, but it shouldn’t mean we lose access to v5. Version 6 should’ve been released as a separate app, but the developer knows full well that anyone running v5 will, at some point, accidentally tap “update”, restore their phone or buy a new one thus forcing them onto v6 and the new subscription model. True, there is a $30 “forever” license, but after this betrayal, who knows how long they’ll honor that. Will v7 replace the existing app and require another “forever” purchase? This was a shady move. It’s not about the money or the annoying subscription model, but rather the underhanded manner in which they pushed v6 upon us. Uninstalled and will avoid this developer moving forward..Version: 6.0
✓ Forced monetisation changeThe developer decided it would be a great idea to release an update - which happens automatically for those with auto-updates turned on - they added ads to the product even though we previously paid for it. While I can understand the need for increased revenue, this was an anti-consumer move that has lost them every ounce of trust I once had in them. The developer should have released v6 as a separate app so that those who were happy with v5 would be able to continue to use it until future iOS updates broke it. This would have reduced revenue, but would have made me more inclined to support the developer. I can no longer trust that they won’t randomly stop updating v6 in lieu of a new app with a separate “Lifetime” subscription. I’m also a software developer, “Lifetime” refers to the life of the product, not the life of the buyer. I will be uninstalling this app..Version: 6.0
✓ BugsAbout 5 months ago, a bug crept in where new mutes/muffles wouldn’t save unless I manually added them. A couple of weeks after that, the manual trick also stopped working - new mute and muffle rules simply don’t work and disabling old ones only works until I force quit the app, then they come back. I had hoped this was an iOS issue as mine was an older version, but it seems not - after installing the latest (13.6), this very annoying bug is still there. The main reasons I pay for third party twitter apps are muting and chronological order, so when one of those no longer works, there’s not much incentive for me to use this app..Version: 6.2
✓ I hate apps that pester you for a reviewI like the app but hate that it keeps bugging me to leave a review. It’s not amazing and it is not horrible.Version: 5.19.3
✓ NagwareDecent program but it includes nagware that begs for money so that you start to wish you hadn't installed it. :(.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Ok at best, annoying at worstTitle says it all. This lets you see your Twitter stream, however it also has a tendency to reset the point in the stream to over a month in the past requiring a lot of scrolling to read the latest tweets. Update: Disabling the option to sync reading position appears to have fixed this. I only have the one device so it appears to have at some point decided to somehow decide to change how it identifies itself, and for some awful reason this app appears to sync everything to the “device”that hasn’t been used rather than the most recent? Pretty terrible decision there..Version: 6.3.3
✓ GoodbyeI used this app for years but no more due to unethical practices outlined by others here. I was even silly enough to add to the tip jar! Now I’ve returned to Tweetbot which I used before. It’s a great user experience..Version: 6.0.4
✓ The only reason I downloaded this for!!I only got the app cause I knew you used to be able to make your location longer than 30 characters, but not anymore I guess? it would be really cool if you could make this available to do once again, I know a lot of people who’ve gotten this app to do just strictly that, as well. if you ever make that a feature again feel free to reply to this and i’ll re-download this app again :)).Version: 6.2.1
✓ What an absolute con!Fed up of all the changes that keep happening with Twitters own app I thought i’d try a switch to a well known interface. After paying £2.99 to remove adds I found out that you don’t get notifications! After some research I discovered they lost this feature last year but it doesn’t mention it in the app description. Getting notifications is an important part of Twitter. Knowing when someone has replied, liked or interacted in some way with a post is central to most social media. I’m going to request a refund of the in app purchase and delete this waste of space on my phone! Their answer on their blog “Use the Twitter app for your notifications”! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Don’t bother, don’t download and certainly don’t purchase the add free or tip the makers..Version: 5.20.5
✓ LocationIt sucks! I’ve used it before to make my location longer than the 30 character limit but now it only lets me use 30. It’s as if it doesn’t change anything. Please fix this problem..Version: 6.2.1
✓ Love toGet force-upgraded from a paid version of an app to an ad-supported one.Version: 6.0
✓ Don’t botherThey have shifted to a subscription model that ads nothing to the experience. There is also no notifications so when I get mentions I don’t know u till the next time I open the app. Save your money..Version: 6.1
✓ Introducing ads to a previously paid app is roughI know Apple doesn’t have a good way to support upgrades, but now I need to spend money every month for an app I paid for. Separate app would have been preferred..Version: 6.0
✓ Unable to restore the Ads that I purchasedWhy would I pay $47 to have ads popping up on my twitter timeline all the time. I am not able to restore the purchase after I switched my Apple ID on the phone. Now using the same Apple ID to restore the purchase I get unable to connect to iTunes Store all the time. Can some one from the dev team help restore my purchase please. I am disappointed with the experience..Version: 6.2
✓ Sneaky update now asks me to payI understand I paid for this app a long time ago and that development is expensive but I opened it today and find that it's showing me adverts when it wasn't before. I understand there's no easy way to do this in the App Store and maybe it's Apple's fault but I don't like going from an app I paid for with no ads to one with ads without being warned. Perhaps v6 should have been a separate app?.Version: 6.0
✓ Where the hell is my purchased app?They updated it ti 6 and my purchase is gone with no way to get it back. How does the app store allow rhis kind of bait and switch?!.Version: 6.0
✓ Long LocationBring back the king location feature, that’s the only reason a lot of my friends and i installed the app.Version: 6.2.1
✓ Good, needs improvementHas trouble loading notifications & have yet to see the translator work. Would be much better if it was easier to tweet & reply with gifs. Doesn’t support group messages is a huge disappointment & down fall. Wish the app was more customizable with fonts & colors options. The features you have to buy aren’t worth it when you get all those features for free on the original twitter app. Sick of having to switch back & forth just to see my group messages and use the gifs on the original twitter app when I have paid to be able to do that with this app & can't..Version: 5.17.9
✓ Siri FriendlyBut so far it has lots of cons.There appears to be no quick way to get to the latest tweets. It doesn’t show replies and everything seems mumbo jumbo. Reading a thread requires several clicks. No instructions. No evidence of what is trending. Pluses, you can change the font, make it big or small and turn off video and animation. That’s great because when they begin without notice, it interferes with my TV. I hate memes. They mean nothing at all to me. Suggestions... show tweets in chronological order, or allow user to choose between most popular and chronological. Put some kind of button to allow immediate display of thread. Put a number under or near the @ to indicate how many new replies you have..Version: 6.1.5
