Hi all
I'm arriving from Android & Blackberry phones.
Both have a Twitter client with minimum push notifications showned on top and other feature like nick suggestion, picture preview on TL etc etc
I can't find something similar on the Windows Marketplace... even if I have to pay for it but I want a full featured twitter client
I have tried the official client, birdsong, Mehdoh but nothing is a REAL 2012 twitter client
Any advice ? I ready to pay the app... but if a free one exist
Thing is Notification System is not there in Windows Phone. Its all done via live tile but it has its own limitation.
SO if you been trying to find something for notification it is not there but Live tiles Most of what you saw do support it.

Windows Phone allow app to run in background
Mehdoh is able to send notification even if locked but Mehdoh is not push so the delay is not so good for DM and mention
Maybe an app with tiles update will be great but can't find a great one...
I can't image that WindowsPhone community do not have a good Twitter client ?!?
Pretty sure there are other threads about Twitter apps...
Anyway, rowi is one of the best apps, and will get even better once 2.0 hits the Marketplace.
Carbon is also coming very soon and looks to be a great app once it hits the Marketplace.
The Marketplace is still quite young, and while there are some nice Twitter apps, I don't think there is anything just quite yet that goes above and beyond like some apps do on other platforms. There is also not a huge need for a really robust Twitter app since the phone already has a lot of Twitter functionality built in.
Thanks I will check
Can't this be what you need?

The official Twitter app do not managed the push notification, live tiles and nothing else... going on the mobile site would be the same
I think that what you need is Rowi, i test the 2.0 beta and i can say to you that it will be the best twitter client on WP7, trust me ;-)

Agreed. Running Rowi RC & its fabulous but you'll have to wait a little while until testing is complete & then it will be released to the Marketplace. It's worth the wait.
Sent from my HTC Titan using Board Express
After testing many Twitter client I have just spend little money to buy Rowi
http://hiddenpineapple.com/rowi
2 versions :
Free with AD and no push & no notifications
2,99$ with no AD, push notification
Available on the Marketplace
Everything that exist on other mobile phone, auto-completion on mention & hahtag, list managment and filters etc etc
One thing that is "new" than others is the line just under the last tweet you have read, so you know which tweets are new
Mehdoh (currently in market) is quite good.
Rowi is good, I'm hearing upcoming release is excellent.
Carbon is currently in development, hearing good things about this app as well.

Which is the best Twitter App for Android ?
Cuz i've been using Twidroid but it replys like From Twidroid, not in a reply to someone .
So which one is the best ? i want one that replys the tweet from a user .
twidroid ( the best we got as of now...)
i like twidget the best
IMO iTweet is the best then twidroid after that.
I get all my updates and has all the features you need in a tweeter app.
but if you dont want to buy one I would go with twidroid.

iTweet
Hands down the best, at the moment.
I wish we had a reliable widget. I've tried Twidget numberous times, but it failed to update properly. Maybe they've got it fixed by now. If so, Twidget was showing lots of promise.
Twit2Go FTW
I discovered Twit2Go when I was looking for a Twitter app, and really really like it. It's very lightweight (compared to things like Twitteride and Twidroid), and a nice Android UI (unlike ITweet, for example), and has all the usual goodies (TinyURL support, reply/DM notifications, etc.).
Strongly recommend giving it a try.
HTC Peep Lol or Itweet if you want to pay. Twidroid = best free twitter app no doubt.
I like Twitterride because it's the only one I could find that would distinguish new tweets from old.
I prefer Twidroid myself.
itweet is the best one
i tried iTweet and i like it im gonna keep using the 3 for a few days and decide, thx guys cuz i didnt know this iTweet app .
Twidroid is nice, but sometimes it shows tweets from months ago. No idea why.
ITweet FTW!!!
should have made this a poll....
If i could get peep i would on a non Hero, however i use TwitterRide , use to use Twidroid however never would update on its own i woudl have to click refresh. TwitterRide is getting like this now, wish i could find one that would update every 5-10 mins on its own. . . . . . .
Twidroid.
Best twitter client hands down.
I gotta give my vote to Twidroid. Amazing app. I used Twidget for a while, because it's one of the few that actually constantly update (it runs in the background, like Twidroid has the option to) and is nice and lite. Twidroid then picks up everything else as a fully-functional Twitter client. I like it better than the Twitter homepage itself!

That's basically how I see them too.. Twidget is an awesome lightweight client for keeping up. I also do most updates from it. I have Twidroid installed but not configured for background checking so I can use it when needed for photo posting, DMs, etc. Both excellent apps, just different strengths.

Hi,
i played this weekend with a couple android devices and i liked the contact app on the samsung galaxy tab. is it possilbe to get it on the desire, or is it special made from/for samsung?
cant find it in the market...
What's so special about it?I've never seen it
DarthGRE said:

i think it's the same as in the SGS...the contact application is very nice..it allows you to swipe right or left in order to make a call or send a sms.. i think if there is a way to import this in to DHD it would be very nice
and i also like the style and layout, but will probably look very tiny on the small display of the dhd.
but i like it. better than the htc one....
Its basically like the iPad's contact app, in landscape mode it shows the contact list down the left side and when a contact is selected it fills the right hand side of the screen with the contacts details. Is that what your after?
yep,
i also like contapps, like the portrait view with the name under it, but unforunately it sorts the contacts only by first name and i would like to have it with last name...
Im not a massive fan of contapps, however i can see the appeal. i would definatly like the Tab's contact app though, and i think with the DHD's 4.3 inch screen, it would work pretty well.
right now contapps is buggy, but i like the idea, the design is a diffrent story, but maybe they enable themes...i like the facebook integration in cotapps more than with the standard dhd people app and facebook for thc sense, because, this f**** always messes up my contact pictures...
i just would like to have the "updates" from facebook not the pictures and anything...
but i think the conact app from the galaxy tab is only for samsung...its not a open app for everybody....
Off, u can always override pic of contacts in edit mode,htc sense.
-- sent from htc z using xda app
yes i can overide it until the next sync, than i have all this nice facebook pictures back from facebook for htc sense or twitter for htc sense...*bullsh..*
i am looking for a goot contacts app who still does integrate stuff like facebook and twitter but let me choose what to do. like in contapps, i can choose which picture gets overwritten by the facebook one...twitter is not yet integrated, but i like the foursquare integration too...
i even looked at sony eriscson xperia 10 today, the integration of the networks look better there, but i could test if it does the same overwritting like htc facebook.
Had a unpacked (preproduction) Galaxy Tab rom laying around from my Galaxy S days (Way.. back) Here's the contact app from it, I assume it doesn't run on the DHD, but who knows, maybe someone can make it work
I don't know how to get it running on the DHD. If you have questions, please contact the Samsung or HTC Helpdesk

Hi team,
Nice app you have there. I like the way you advertise it on your website.
"Dude, I’m so
bored with my mobile
contacts…"
"Try contapps,
it’s free!"
Lol... keep up the great work.
EDIT: in dutch your app and company name sounds a bit funny. In dutch "kont" means "ass" .The pronunciation of "cont" is the same as "kont" in dutch, so in Dutch it sounds like ass apps
I suggest a fusion with a company named "kick" for the dutch app market

You're right. I was a bit to quick. Probably because I assumed beforehand that it cannot be installed.
anyone tried to push it via adb? might try it when i get home
any1 had any luck?
Just trying contapps, very nice i have a few suggestions which i think would work nicely
Using contapps too, but I don't like that I cant sort the contacts by last name and it shows me a lot of the items twice, like home and work address, birthday and so on, I think it's because, I have all my contacts in phone and synced with google too. also would like to link the contacts with other social sites and an overview of it in the info section

looks nice, but why aren't you using http://developer.android.com/reference/android/accounts/AccountManager.html ?
Asking for login/pass with internet permissions will be suspicious to many users, especially when it's unnecessary for what you're doing.

So wanted to purchase this app...please implement user/password feature as stated above. Then I will buy it...kinda creepy as is having to input my info atm
Looks nice, though as ZanshinG1 pointed out, Account Manager would be a much better way of using the Google account.

Better than Newsr? How does it compare?
I quite like the look of this, but I'm really loathe to buy a Reader app when it's only a matter of time until Google themselves release one that's optimized for tablets. I haven't bought Newsr for the same reason.
If you release an ad supported version then I'd jump all over it.
We just released version 1.1 with integrated credentials support - enjoy!
Again, thanks for the input

Maybe we will release an ad version. But we would rather not bloat the interface with ads. I dont think google will release a good reader app for tablets, the browser one is no good and the one for phones isnt really great either in my opinion. Thats why we thought of doing one that looks the way we want for our selves..

As it works now, the news wont get marked as read. When you sync it purges the news and downloads new news. So you can decide, tell us how you want it and we will make it work like that.
Newsr is a small investment and very good. Actively developed. Even if Google releases its own Reader app that you prefer, you will have gotten your money's worth. What I really want is a scrollable Reader widget which allows me to select which feed or label I want in the widget.
I like the look of this Honey Reader. When it sorts out the login Account Manager issue, I'll give it a whirl. Price is fair, too. I think people forget they can still do 15 minute try and return for no cost if they want. It's important that we support a development community for Droid if we want it to become as robust as Apple's.
Edit: just realized the account manager issue is resolved. Off to try this now.

New realtime web tracking system, runs on any phone 2.1+
You can send links to people you want to share your position with. Has configurable "update" times and shows last update/update interval/battery status on the web tracking page (useful for example when you are outside, roaming wilderness for many hours and need to save those last 10% of battery by turn long update interval - people watching you do not freak out, why didn't you move for a long time).
Current status: works, I am optimizing the GPS usage for battery savings.

I am the author of this app and have one question - did you ever clicked on ads in this app? I am just trying to make a kind of "Survey" between users to know, which way to go. I have the paid version, but it doesn't sell well, so I made the Ad-supported version, listed in Google Play for free, but not many people click the ads.
What do you think? Do you think, that having the app free, supported with ads is viable option for me?
Does this application allows recording and upload tracks?
I`m looking for app like old GPSed for iOS and Blackberry.

Not sure about this time tracking application. We had been using Replicon's time tracking product suite which is an easy to use cloud based solution. It has a simple to use calendar view interface, great features for usability and unparalleled back up support too. NO issues till date, had been quite efficient and productive tool.

Nice app... but
I just downloaded your free version to see how it worked before purchasing and have a question.
In your description it says you can send links by email but there is no option through the phone app to send links at all. The only place I seen that offers any type of links to send is on the website. I think this option should be offered through the phone app.
Is this something you plan on adding?

Just google it and you'll find the answer
It seems Microsoft has told Whatsapp to disable the app from running all the time. The app uses too much energy which drains all the battery. So Whatsapp announced they will make a new version of the app available within 3 weeks. The bad thing though, there's a big chance whatsapp won't give real time push notification's after this update but will be refreshed on time bases. Which could mean you'll get messages 5 minutes late or anything like that. I'm not sure how the iOS version of whatsapp works? Does that one run all the time ass well, for push notifications I mean?
Let's just hope Real Time Push Notification's won't go away, because it would be a terrible cost. I'm glad Whatsapp improved speed on WP7 though. Whatsapp on my Lumia 920 works incredibly fast compared with the old version of whatsapp on 7.5. And this means it will go faster when the update is available.

just got answer from WhatsApp Support saying that it does not work well in WP8 and they do not know if and when it would return to the market. it seems this app is doomed for now. will have to find alternate app or move to IOS or Android
Hey Guys I've got this as an answer when I tried to ask them what was going on:
Hi,
Thanks for your message. Sorry, WhatsApp is not fully supported on Windows Phone 8 and we cannot comment on future timelines.
If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us. We would be happy to help!
I'm not quite familiar with the exact figure's of how much use is made of whatsapp amongst the competition (Android and IOS) But I think you could reason not having a decent operating Whatsapp would damage WP's position on the market seriously. Whatsapp is immensely popular in the region I live in. So why would Microsoft try to limit or block such a program?
Anyhow I got my Android 4.1 update on my htc one X on December 5th, which is a holiday over here in the Netherlands would be a good thing to have Whatsapp on WP8 before Christmas Eve. My Htc X8 is currently not more than just a palmtop which I can use as a phone...
Cheers Buck
