Twitterrific Adds Redesigned Today View, watchOS 2 App, Refined Profile Pages

Solid update to the Twitter client by The Iconfactory: version 5.14 of Twitterrific brings a redesigned and customizable Today screen to view an activity summary for the selected account (with a counter for quoted tweets, too), better support for 3D Touch to peek at events in the timeline, a watchOS 2 app, and the ability to preview recently shared media in profile pages.

I don’t use Twitterrific as my main client – I prefer Tweetbot – but choosing between the two is largely a matter of minor preferences at this point (one of mine: Tweetbot lets me see people who retweeted and faved one of my tweets from the tweet detail view). It’s great to see that The Iconfactory is getting rid of many of the old annoyances of Twitterrific: DMs are now excluded from the unified timeline (I criticized this here), the tab bar supports 5 buttons on iPad, where you can also choose to show it at the bottom in portrait (previously, the feature was iPhone-only). Great changes.

Twitterrific 5.14 is available on the App Store.
