When you try and reply to one of your own tweets, you’ll get a “Create Topic” option. Tweetbot has its own slightly weird implementation for managing Tweetstorms, it’s limited to Tweetbot users and it’s called Topics. Once enabled, tapping a link will automatically engage Safari’s built-in Reader view that cleans up all the formatting and only presents the text and images. If you open a lot of articles from Tweetbot, you should enable this.
Enable Reader Viewįrom the same screen, you can enable Reader View. Tweetbot has taken care of this by creating their own version of the Safari View Controller, the only difference is that it supports the “Swipe in from the left edge” gesture to go back. But one problem is that if you have an iPhone 6s Plus, you need to go all the way to the top to tap the “Done” button to go back to the tweets. Tweetbot uses Safari View Controller as the default built-in browser. You can switch it from Live to Retweet but going to “Settings” -> “Short Right Swipe”. Customize Tweet Swipe Gesturesįrom these gestures, you can customize the “Short Right Swipe” gesture. The right swipe has two levels, a short swipe reveals the Like option, the longer swipe lets you reply. Just like the Mail app, you can swipe left/right on any tweet in Tweetbot to reveal options. To switch between accounts you use the same screen. Tap your profile picture in the top-right and then tap the “+” icon. You can use multiple accounts in Tweetbot. And while from “Settings” -> “Display” you can turn on automatic switching to dark mode when it’s night time, I really like that you can just swipe on the screen with two fingers to enable dark mode.Īnd from the “Display” screen you can customize everything from the text size, the font and how images are shown. You can use this interaction for saving articles Instapaper or Pinboard. One of the most frequent things I do in Tweetbot is long pressing a link till the native iOS Share Sheet comes up and tapping the “Pocket” icon to save the article. You can also create your own filters using the “Add Filter” option. To go back to the feed, tap the “X” button.
Besides which, you’ll need a funnel icon. To enable filters, tap the status bar to go the top till you see the Search bar. This is a great way to discover articles from your timeline. This lets you filter your feed that just shows links or media. RELATED : The Best CarPlay Apps for iPhone 2.
