Apps updated for iOS 7

cant believe tweetbot is taking as long as they are updating their app i have switched to twitterrific and like that app so much i may not switch back now
 
I will pay for an upgrade to Tweetbot, since I understand that all of the graphics, sounds, animations, etc. are custom made by their developers, and that takes a LOT of work. But they also come across as somewhat arrogant, which makes me think about using something else. I hate the look of Twitterrific, but the official Twitter app might not be so bad.

the arrogant part is dead on...that is why i will not purchase..too many other options out there just as good as them IMO.. plus tons of other paid apps have updated and you did not see them release a seperate app just for iOS 7

I can't wait until Tweetbot is updated, I have been using Echofon since that app has been updated to iOS 7, however there is an annoying bug where it gives you an error when looking at an Instagram photo. :mad:

Sorry but how are they arrogant? Just curious..

And is it confirmed that it'll be a paid upgrade? Cause that just sucks!

I noticed that if I click on the instagram link, it will load up fine. But if you click on the photo it gives the error. Very weird. :eek:
 
What I find unfortunate about the Tweetbot situation and this is just going off of assumptions on my part (which I know I shouldn't do) is that if they are planning on charging for this upgrade. It would be in the best interests of new customers to mention this on their blog. They do not have to reveal a launch date as I understand this is not something not under their control with Apple approval times etc. The whole mindset of the Tapbots crew is "no worries, they will be back". It's a cocky approach but they do understand the market share they have with the app.

I think most customers wouldn't have a problem with this approach if they didn't stop supporting all the other apps people have bought over the years (Calcbot, Pastebot, etc..)

I have no problem paying for an upgrade as I enjoy supporting devs who put forth effort to create a fantastic product and also experience.

I do feel bad for the customers who are buying Tweetbot 2.0 when 3.0 will be out soon.

If I had to guess...

Tweebot 3 - Introductory price $0.99 iPhone / $1.99 iPad
Tweebot 2 - Free

do you know how to disable that annoying 3 line icon that represents unread or old tweets whenever you open the app?

the one that when you tap on it it shows you old unread tweets, it's so bloody annoying, Ive searched for this setting everywhere and I can't find it

Lists? It annoyed me too, and the only way I stopped it was to hit the back button at the top of the screen to exit that list. That removed the badge on it. But you have to back track to where you left off which is fine by me.

I've been using the first party app and then moved to Twitteriffic. I cannot wait for the new Tweetbot. I'm one of those that will pay again of they do decide to charge.
