After a crowdfunding campaign, the guys from The Iconfactory, got the money needed to launch a Mac version of their Twitter client for iOS, a client that although it is true is not used by as many people as Tweetbot, at least they do not try to get money from us every two years by launching an application very similar to the previous one, as if Tapbots does .
Twitter announced on Friday night, through its support account, that the application for Mac stopped receiving support and that within 30 days it would stop working completely. The first step, remove it from the Mac App Store they have already done. As expected, current Twitter clients for Mac had to move and the first to do so was The Iconfactory, lowering the price of its application from € 22,99 which cost to € 8,95.
The arrival of Twitterrific to the market Such a high price, it didn't make any sense, since it was available for more than double the price that Tweetbot has, 10,99 euros, a client that many users have as a reference especially on iOS. The reduction in the price of your application will surely allow you to capture the interest of all those users who used the official client and who do not want to depend on the web version for whatever reason.
Since the launch of the Mac version of Twitterrific, the guys at The Iconfactory have been regularly updating the application to offer compatibility with all the functions that the Twitter API allows, and where we do not find support for surveys, since that is reserved for the web version and the official client for iOS. If you were waiting for a price reduction, now is the best time, since we do not know if this offer will be limited in time or if this new price will remain as the final one.
