[...] Twidroid 3.0 adds support for threaded conversations [...]

Why would we care about the other twitter clients when they lack so many of the features that Twidroid has? Its nice that they “look” better. And like you said, Twidroid has functionality and thats what is most important to most people.

Yes Twidroid has a long way to go and definitely needs to improve its designs, but right now (especially with 3.0), its the best we have on Android.

I wish the TweetDeck guys would port their iPhone app to Android.

Yes, that’s Twidroid’s main problem… the UI… not the bugs :)
I hate iPhone, btw. Android is much better.

I would like to see an objective comparison between the biggest Twitter clients out there… Taylor? :)
Or maybe we should wait for Christmas… and see Twidroid 3.1…

Matt, if you care about looks so much go out and get an iPhone (even though that phone now looks old and tired).

Twidroid is the best hands down.

I really don’t understand why people still use Twidroid.
Yes, it has more features than any other Android client right now and yes, the speed is great. But it has lots of annoying things:
- the UI is ugly for an Android app (at least they got rid of that list of buttons and replaced it by a context menu… they had to get to v3 to do that…)
- threaded conversations introduced by v3 don’t work… at least on my account I can see only 2 conversations :/ on Seesmic on the other hand I can see 10+ and I can load older ones if I want…
- in-app browser is full of bugs… and they don’t even show a loading indicator or something while the page is loading…
- if I change my account info from Settings, and get back to home timeline or dm, the tweets/dm are mixed-up… I can see tweets/dm from bot accounts… what IS that? don’t they have QA?
- they said individual tweet view is coming to v3… where is it?!
- remember timeline position in v3… not always working… if I scroll to the 500th tweet and exit the app, when I get back it takes me to the end of the page (the 50th tweet, if this is what I have selected in Settings) and starts loading another page (so I can lose another API call…)
- the bottom bar is too small… or my fingers are too big… why don’t they add the possibility to increase its size?

Should I add more bugs I found?!
By the way, I’ve tested the free version… v3… I’m gonna pay for the Pro version only when it starts looking like a solid client. Right now, I consider it beta version, like all the other Twitter clients for Android. At least the other ones are still at 1.x, they don’t disrespect us by reaching 3.x and still have lots of issues.

My opinion is that they release new versions without proper testing (how can they do that, knowing they’re the most used Twitter client on Android app)… and they need to hire an Android designer, for God’s sake!

I think all they care about is money… maybe they paid for this article too… “Twitter, Google, or any handset maker would be proud to make this their official client.” … yeah, sure… VERY proud… lol.

There are similar clients out there: Swift, Seesmic, Twigee… they look much better, but they don’t have Twidroid’s functionality… I hope they will rise fast and show to Twidroid how they should make a solid client.

Cheers! And sorry for being such an … but I was really hoping Twidroid has evolved, but they are still light years behind what I want from a Twitter client… and those bugs are driving me nuts!!

I like Twigee the most for now… but I’ll probably start using Seesmic in the future if they add search and they improve the timeline loading times… it’s slow as hell right now on my G1.
What other clients should I try? I Tweet & TwitterRide have ugly UI as well…

They better be the best. Motorola droid ads has twidroid as a app being use by the robot.

with this newest version is there any way to completely eliminate the zoom in and out function which for me takes up too much valuable screen space on my Eris
thanks

Twidroid is a must have on android. Far better than any other tweet client.

Twidroid is alright, but I will not use it until they fix me clicking on links/hashtags when i am scrolling and the buggy scrolling. With seesmic’s staff and community, they will be catching up fast. Oh yeah, 5 bucks for bit.ly support and a widget, kinda silly.

no it’s actually because the twidroid “embedded” browser has javascript disabled. I have already emailed the developers about this, hopefully will get fixed soon.
