I pushed back the release of Tweetie 1.2 a few days to implement some features a lot of people have been clamoring over. I submitted it last night, so it should be live any day now.
Since this past weekend, here’s what else I managed to sneak in there:
Block / Unblock users
Refined simple theme
Setting for number of tweets to load on launch
Remember scroll position on launch
Remember scroll position on refresh
Improve “load newer” after long delay
Link to Twitpic.com for pics
Faster favoriting
Handle lowercase $stock links
Link to StockTwits
Mail direct message text
Protocol handling improvements
This of course is addition to all the other stuff I already mentioned:
Japanese localization
Instapaper integration
Optional landscape keyboard
Image compression control
Nearby radius control
Cached avatars
Swap “from” account in Compose
Drafts persist across relaunches
Retry tweet on network error
Refined reply chain navigation
Refined user details UI
Disable multiple accounts back button
Public timeline
Swipe shortcuts in tweets list
These changes really make using Tweetie a delight. But there is one more thing… it’s exclusive to Tweetie and you won’t find it anywhere else. It’s called the “Popularity Enhancer”. I can’t share details just yet, but stay tuned, it will blow you away.
