Tweetglass was formerly known as Quip and it’s an iPad twitter app that focuses on automatically making your time line easier to read. Conversations are displayed in an easy to read manner and it was just updated with streaming over Wi-Fi, read later support, list support, performance improvements and a lot more.
The interface of Tweetglass is pretty visual; it has a dark theme that concentrates on looking good rather than just throwing information out to the user. Avatars are large and big speech bubbles have all the tweets. It looks fantastic but users will only be able to see 4 to 5 tweets at a time in landscape mode and 6 in portrait.
The extra space you will notice between tweets is not something just for looks; in fact it shows the people who have participated in the conversation.
A number of twitter apps display the conversations in order however Tweetglass lets you do all that without having to change screens.
Tabs are always a part of twitter apps and they are included in this twitter client as well, it has a tab for conversations, for retweets, and another one for photos.
The photos tab shows photos in a grid form and when you tap on a tweet it will be enlarged and the tweets with the photo will be shown. You will also be provided with options to view the conversation, mark as a favorite, share, and reply. The only drawback; It’s a tad slow due to the large thumbnails.
The direct messages tab will display a list of all the users that you have direct messages with, and will display their avatars as well.
