7 Best Twitter Apps for the Fussiest Tweeters
The official twitter app has come a very long way, from being a dumpster fire to an app that you can totally rely on. Most people don’t even use twitter clients anymore because these apps just show Twitter in a different layout. However, if you want Twitter apps that concentrate on providing even better usability then check out my favorite picks. Let’s begin.
Best Twitter apps for Android
1. Falcon Pro 3
falcon pro is one of my favorite Twitter apps. It may not provide all the features, but they have really concentrated on just the things which are most important and offered them in a clean and elegant way. The appshows relevant interactionson the side panel, offerscolumn-based interactions, andoptimized scrolling.
The only thing which I dislike is this app costs $3.99 for a single account and an extra $1.99 for each account you want to use, which is definitely more than what it deserves. Anyhow, you can get the best twitter app for android.

2. Albatross for Twitter
This is a recently released twitter app with google’s material design. Right from customization, gestures, etc, this app offers a lot of features and settings for you to tweak. However, one of the most overlooked features is theoption to view the feed in chronological order.
By default, swipe to dismiss option is turned on and it brings you back to home feed when you swipe, which is annoying if you’re in the middle of a long thread. Take it as a tip and disable “Swipe to Dismiss”.

Owly would give any Twitter client a run for its money in terms of experience. Theinterface of this app is cleverly designedwhich offers all the featuresin a minimalistic way. This is a twitter app that has been around for a really long time and has been updating the design and function according to the latest trends.

4. Twidere
The last two apps on the list have decent features but they totally fail in the notifications department. Talking about notifications, Twidere handles notifications like a champ, even better than the official Twitter app. It notifies you about every like, comment, and mentions. This app offers even features likecombined notifications to group all the notifications and batched notifications. If you have multiple twitter accounts, you can even set up different notification settings for each account.

5. Fenix 2
Fenix is a totally different app that has itsmain focus on concentrating content instead of likes, retweets, replies. By default, it shows you likes and retweets with a single tap on the tweet, but you even have the option to remap that. All you can see is the tweet with no likes, retweets, replies, etc. So you won’t be affected by people’s decisions and have your own perspective of each tweet.

6. Tweecha lite
The name of this app itself says the entire story. If you are looking for an app thatoccupies less storage space and consumes less data, then Tweecha lite is even better than the official Twitter lite app. However, if you’re not a fan of 4Chan messageboard style interface then you may not like the app at all. One of the features that I really appreciate is that you have canresume your browsing from the point you left, even after restarting the app.

7. Hootsuite
It is not a twitter app but even more than that. It can be used as a planner & to store drafts to post on twitter and other social media platforms. Though it is not a twitter app, you can tweets, your profile, and notifications right in the app. And you can also like, retweet, and reply.
