This WAS one of the best clients out there. MW gave it a huge boost with glowing reviews. Then came this summer. Client can't open shortened URLS in browsers without adding extra code, rendering the page broken. You can't view pictures.

What's worse: Yourhead software people blame Twitter. And are threatening to stop development, which is their right, but people paid for this app, including me, and now they are blaming Twitter for bugs.

I understand their new version is now free because a) they're selling ads on it, and b) they're thinking about killing it off.

Again, it's their right. But how about fixing the bugs instead of trying to bait and switch those of us who PAID for an ad-free version by claiming it's not your fault?

Do NOT download.

I admit I need more time for a full check and comparison.
So most stars are to counter-act PRLab's double rant...

I love the ability to create rules to help filter out content that I do not want to see in my timeline.

I purchased Kiwi the other day for the MU Promo price.

This Twitter client is the best out there IMO. I love the account switching features in this program. It's much easier to switch back and forth between my two Twitter accounts with the tabs.

Worked for me: Log in then quit the app with ctrl-q. When you open the app again, it should log in properly.

A very good Twitter desktop application that has become the best with the 2.0 release. Supported by a great developer, this should be on the dock of every Mac Twitter user!

Highly recommended!!!
