Latest Tweed update fixes media upload issues 8

by Robert Werlinger Thu, 05 Aug 2010 1:33 pm EDT

It came to our attention last month that because of some changes that Twitter had implemented in the way that it allows third party applications to integrate with the service, a number of webOS Twitter clients - most notably Pivotal Lab's Tweed - began to experience issues relating to the upload of media. After a few weeks of broken functionality, there's good news for those Tweed users who haven't been able to upload anything: the latest update to 1.20, which is now live in the App Catalog, fixes those issues that prevented the uploading media.

I'm officially back to using Tweed as my main Twitter client. It's just so much faster than the others.

Agreed. No other Twitter client on WebOS is as efficient. Least amount of taps to do most any task.

Ehh, you gotta test drive them all to find the one that works best for you anyway. Some people are diehard Bad Kitty users, but I can't stand to use it.

Sweet, Tweed is the BEST Twitter client. Thanks for the fix!

I put Tweed on the back burner (turned off notifications) and picked up Bad Kitty during the app sale. Bad Kitty is missing a few features that Tweed has, like viewing my outgoing DMs. I do like BK's multi-account handling more than Tweed's.

However and this is the most important note: Tweed still has the "you are not authorized to view this status" bug on conversations including one or more protected accounts, even when I'm authorized on those protected accounts. It's a very serious bug and basically keeps me from using Tweed.

When Tweed is fully back and the bugs are squished, I'll do a feature by feature comparison and see how they stack up. Until then I'm sticking with Bad Kitty.
