New twitter client "Willow" available for BB10
Willow, a twitter client previously released for the PlayBook, is now also available for BB10. You can preview it here: BlackBerry World - Willow
Price: $1.99
As with SiteBook, I originally created Willow for myself, wanting a clean Twitter client which followed the BB10 user interface guidelines.
Official description (the web page is showing the PlayBook desciption for some reason, while BlackBerry World on my phone shows it correctly):
Willow is a full-featured yet easy to use Twitter client:
- Multiple Accounts
- Auto Refresh option
- Embedded photos shown as previews in Tweet list
- Manage Lists
- Manage Searches
- Manage your Followers, Following and Blocked users
- Manage your profile (name, description and location)
- View Trends
- Multiple views including Home, Messages, Mentions, Sent, Favorites, List, User and Search
- Share tweets via email, text, etc.
Most options are available by simply tapping on a tweet, such as adding the user to the last used List, following or unfollowing, marking as a Favorite, etc.
Future versions roadmap:
- Tweeting media
A review (of the PlayBook version) mentions encountering errors when using autorefresh. I'm guessing this refers to how Twitter "rate lilmits" requests per hour, and isn't a problem with the app itself. If you combine multiple manual refreshes with the autorefresh, it's possible to exceed Twitter's rate limit (which resets itself over time).
