For the past two months, I been switching back and forth between Tweetbot and Twitter official app coque huawei p8 lite electro depot for iOS in a personal quest to understand what the best Twitter client for me today. Tweetbot 3.5, available today on the App Store, has given me the biggest incentive to keep using Tapbots app yet: integration with iOS 8 extensions in my Twitter timeline.
Tapbots foray into iOS 8 is, on the surface, unsurprising: Tweetbot 3.5 has received layouts optimized for the iPhone 6/6 Plus and, like the official Twitter app for iPhone, interactive notifications.
Tweetbot 3.5 looks great on the iPhone 6, and its new notifications allow me to quickly mark a tweet as favorite without opening the app. Unfortunately, third party apps can access the quick reply feature found in Apple Messages app: like Twitter, tapping the Reply button in coque huawei p8 lite 2017 spigen a notification won let you reply immediately but it take you to Tweetbot instead.
From a visual perspective, Tweetbot 3.5 looks and works the same, keeping the foundation that Tapbots introduced with Tweetbot 3 last rhinoshield coque huawei mate 20 lite year. The app hasn changed considerably it has evolved in expected ways and within the limitations imposed by Twitter API for coque huawei p20 bleu third party apps.
What changing today in Tweetbot is the action menu for tweets and links. With iOS 8, Tapbots has decided to fully embrace extensions (abandoning the coque huawei p20 en bois custom contextual menu they had built for Tweetbot 3) by switching to Apple share sheet for action and share extensions. Every time you tap hold a tweet/link or hit the share icon in your timeline or a web view, Tweetbot 3.5 will open the iOS 8 share sheet.
I probably spend too much time on Twitter, but I can deny that the people and websites I follow give me a consistent amount of interesting links coque huawei p10 lite avec phrase I coque huawei p20 lite mbappe use for articles, MacStories Weekly, and podcasting. I discover apps, products, and great reads thanks to Twitter, but neither the old Tweetbot or Twitter app allowed me to act on those links right away with no friction. Tweetbot featured support for Instapaper, but its integrations stopped at read later services. Over the years, I developed a habit of marking tweets I found interesting as favorites so I could coque huawei p10 je taime later go acheter coque huawei p8 through all of them and manually coque huawei p10 lite princesse disney bookmark them on Pinboard, add them to Evernote, coque huawei p9 lite clapet or save them to other apps. I turned Twitter favorites into an inbox because it was hard to share links quickly on iOS.
In testing Tweetbot 3.5, I noticed that I now tend to use Twitter favorites less as temporary bookmarks and more as real favorites for tweets I like. With extensions available in my Twitter timeline, I can quickly save links to Pinner, archive them in Evernote, and even pin Twitter photos to Pinterest tap hold a tweet with photos, bring up the Pinterest extension, and it scan the tweet for images.
Any read later coque huawei p10 priceminister app can now be integrated natively with Tweetbot thanks to the share sheet. If you coque sympa huawei p10 lite follow coque huawei p10 lite attrape reves recipe blogs, you could use the AnyList extension to coque huawei p10 or save recipes coque huawei p smart belgique to your account without leaving the app. I can tweet with Linky tweet panel inside Tweetbot if I want a testament to the democratization of app features that extensions bring to iOS 8. Tweetbot has always been better than Twitter own app for opening webpages thanks to non coque huawei p20 ananas modal web views, but extensions take Tapbots app to the next level for processing tweets and links.
That, of course, comes with some trade offs. Here one minor design detail that I mentioned in my review of Tweetbot 3:
If you tap hold a long URL in the timeline, the contextual menu will intelligently resize the URL text to make it smaller so that you be coque huawei p20 pro psg able to read the full URL without cut off parts.
I used that feature all the time to understand if URLs were worth opening or not, and it gone in Tweetbot 3.5. Extensions can only be activated from the share sheet, and Tapbots can add a URL preview to it as it can be modified by apps. I loved that little feature, but from a user perspective having full access to extensions trumps the attention to detail for tap hold on URLs. Thankfully, Tapbots is injecting its own buttons into the share sheet: my beloved link to tweet is still available in the row dedicated to action extensions.
Different shades of Gray (and action sheets).
The second minor issue with coque huawei p20 louis vuitton extensions is consistency. Because of Apple implementation of extensibility in iOS 8, Tweetbot now comes with two distinct action coque huawei p8 lit menus: the Tapbots one, and the share sheet. This isn a deal breaker, but it stands out in an app whose design has been carefully considered.
Unfortunately, support for extensions hasn been added in the opposite direction: you won find a Tweetbot share extension that lets you send tweets with Tweetbot from outside the app. Linky proved that more powerful share sheets can be added to iOS, but Tapbots decided to go with the safest option for this 3.5 release. I would like to see further experimentation with extensions and Tweetbot in the future integration with the native document picker to choose files and share them with Tweetbot would be, for instance, a fantastic addition for power users.
In the months I spent using the official Twitter app for iPhone, I enjoyed several features that aren available to third party apps. Interactive Cards, the redesigned profile view, sync of DM read status, and the Discover tab were much better than I expected them to be, and I wish that third party apps could get access to all of these features.
And yet I keep coque huawei p8 lite 2017 media markt coque huawei p10 lite camion coming back to Tweetbot for the little things. Timeline sync with Tweet Marker, which allows me to comfortably read every tweet; easier access to Favorites with customizable tabs; the ability to switch my timeline to a list. And now, with version 3.5, action and share extensions for coque huawei p20 pro survivor tweets and links. Tapbots may not be at the forefront of Twitter innovation because the company doesn let them, but Tweetbot still is a great client graced by a thoughtful design and, thanks to iOS 8, the kind of flexibility that can be found in Twitter app coque huawei p20 lite drole for iOS…
