Some v3 versions have a crash-on-launch with 10.15+ and we keep getting emails about it. I’m also lazy and have no desire to rewrite a ton of perfectly fine working code.Īpple should have a separate “unlisted” state that does not allow new purchases or it to show up in search results but still:Įvery now and then I put Hype 3 back up for sale to let folks still on that version get updates in case they missed it.
Productivity Apps and Subscription Pricing.I scrolled multiple screens and nowhere to be found. The new Tweetbot doesn’t show up in the results. Tapbots is trying to do the right thing by letting people keep using the old app, but Apple won’t let them fix any bugs that crop up? Not sure if its a new App Store rule, or just whichever reviewer we got, but they requested that we remove Tweetbot 5 from sale within 30 days of Tweetbot 6 going live.Īnd by request I mean wouldn’t approve until we agreed.
#TWEETBOT 6 MAC PLUS#
There are new and “#” buttons when composing a tweet, plus there are new app icon options and more UI themes.
#TWEETBOT 6 MAC UPDATE#
The update adds support for Twitter’s V2 API, adding interface options for polls and cards for the first time, and it tweaks the timeline view and adds support for more tweet data. It doesn’t replace the old app, so nothing is taken away from those who have already paid for version 5.
#TWEETBOT 6 MAC MAC#
$6/year seems reasonable, though it’s not clear whether the Mac version will eventually require an additional subscription. Tapbots says that subscribers will also benefit from future updates as Twitter expands its third-party APIs and ensure Tweetbot’s continued development. Many of the features previously available as part of the paid app, including multiple account support, advanced filtering, and push notifications, are now subscription-only features. The subscription costs $0.99 per month or $5.99 annually. I suppose it’s better for cross-platform recognition, but the old icon stood out, and I keep overlooking the new one when I go to click on it in the Dock.Tapbots, the maker of Tweetbot, has released version 6 of the app, introducing a new subscription pricing model along with a handful of timeline and design updates. Overall, for me the trickiest change to get used to is the new icon, which trades out Tweetbot’s old duck-style icon for a square one that more closely resembles the iOS app’s. (I’d also like to see a dark mode, as on the iOS app. However, one of Tapbots’s developers says it’s coming in the next update. There’s still no support for Twitter’s new native quoting scheme in 2.0, though it is available in Tweetbot for iOS. My favorite tweak is that there’s now a search icon for your timeline in the titlebar itself you could always hit command-F to bring it up, but this makes it more transparent.
Managing multiple columns is a little clearer now, as there’s a column icon in the bottom left (confusingly, it used to be controlled with a gear icon in the bottom right) and it lets you quickly open frequently used columns. (If that change induces too much anxiety, there’s an option to switch back to rounded rectangles.)įunctionally, Tweetbot’s features are more or less the same in version 2.0, though the Retweets tab has been removed from the sidebar and the ability to set a list as your primary timeline is now hidden, accessible only by control-clicking on the titlebar. The look of the new Tweetbot is the biggest front-facing feature of the new app it’s taken on a flat aesthetic that better fits with OS X’s new design, including round avatar images by default. While the iOS app has gotten a number of updates, the Mac version has grown increasingly long in the tooth, especially in light of the design changes Apple introduced last year in OS X Yosemite. I switched to Tweetbot several years ago from Twitterrific.
#TWEETBOT 6 MAC FREE#
It’s a free update via the Mac App Store, or $13 for new users.
When it comes to iOS, there’s an embarrassment of riches for third-party Twitter clients OS X has somewhat fewer options, but still plenty of great ones, and my app of choice, Tapbot’s Tweetbot, has gotten a massive overhaul today, in the form of version 2.0.
