TouchArchive · Jan 25, 2013, 09:40 AM

1.Tweetbot ($20)
2.Twitteriffic ($5)
3.Tweetings ($3)

Wait for your help.Thanks

The best one is Tweetbot. Both Mac and iOS (iPhone / iPad) counterparts are the best out there. You don't even need to search.
However, if you're looking for other good option check for Tweetdeck. Despite Twitter said they were discontinuing it the app was updated less than two weeks ago. Because it is an official app, it is free.

Of those three TweetBot is definitely the best. As far as TweetDeck, I thought Twitter said they were discontinuing the regular Twitter app for Mac, not that. TweetDeck is pretty good too though.

James Craner · Jan 25, 2013, 11:19 AM

Another vote for Tweetbot.

I like TweetDeck--I use it daily!

lexvo · Jan 25, 2013, 02:29 PM

Tweetbot.
Only problem is that Tweetmarker sync is not working correctly.

I believe they're all about as fast, because they all use the same API. I don't feel any difference on my iPhone (between Twitter / Tweetbot, that is).

Tweetbot >>

iThinksimple · Jan 27, 2013, 12:08 AM

still using official twitter client,

Kurwenal · Jan 27, 2013, 09:39 AM

Tweetbot.

doctorjj · Jan 27, 2013, 10:06 AM

I'm going to say Tweetbot as well. While there are many other decent Twitter apps for the Mac - most of which are less expensive or free - Tweetbot is definitely the best.

TouchArchive · Jan 28, 2013, 01:54 PM

Thank you all for support,really happy with Tweetbot. My favorite.

rdowns · Jan 28, 2013, 02:34 PM

YoruFukurou

TweakOnline · Jan 28, 2013, 02:37 PM

Tweetbot is the best and the most expensive one.

Brian Y · Jan 28, 2013, 02:39 PM

Tweetbot by far.

c0venant · Feb 9, 2013, 07:33 PM

can someone please tell me if the official Twitter app is compatible with OS X Leopard? thanks

NMF · Feb 9, 2013, 07:36 PM

Tweetbot, hands down.

The answer is always Tweetbot.

Always.

It requires 10.6 or later.

aaronvan · Feb 9, 2013, 08:49 PM

Tweetbot for me.

well, that sucks. Thanks though

Mackilroy · Feb 9, 2013, 11:49 PM

Eh, it's been discontinued, and if you're pre-10.6 you're probably better off using the web version of TweetDeck or Twitter anyhow.

UncleEk · Feb 17, 2013, 08:21 AM

Osfoora is the best on Mac.

msephton · 12:27 PM

Still using Echofon here.

It's still by far and away the best for me, though I understand my days with it are numbered.

To that end, I've been working on a chart of all native Mac OS X twitter clients. I have listed a number of common - and not so common - features that twitter clients have. Then I mark whether or not each client has that feature.

Let me know your thoughts with regards to extra criteria I can add to the list, and extra apps I might want to include.

Cheers,
matt
