Fenix for Android

[Nishant]

The automatic sync after a specified amount of time seems to be broken on the latest build. Is it just me?

It has become painful enough that I use the Twitter web app most of the times. Installing the official app today for tweeting.

There goes some more money in the drain

I don't know which app to switch to, is the official Twitter app good enough now a days?

I hate the fact that activity column has been turned into a notification style thing like in Facebook or Google+. It should have been a regular column. Instead, you get discover and activity as regular column.

Other than that it is fine. There are in-stream ads of course. Plus you have to have android sync on to keep it auto updating in background.

Twitter has messed up its API so much that none of the 3rd party apps work smoothly. You tend to come back to the official app.

The web app works great to quickly check the latest tweets and notifications. And the best part is that it behaves like a regular app with no browser chrome. It's pretty cool. Even Google does not do it properly with Gmail or Google+. Facebook too.

Twitter has blocked Fenix from posting on their network!

 

[Navjot Singh]

Wow.

 

[Sushubh]

Block has been revoked.

It seems that we can magically tweet from Fenix once again. I've not receive…
