Piepmatz is a Twitter client for Sailfish OS

Welcome to Piepmatz - the new Twitter client for Sailfish OS. Already now, it supports many features which you need in your daily Twitter life:
  • Personal Timeline
  • Mentions
  • Search
  • Profile Pages
  • Complete display of extended tweets
  • Embedded tweets
  • Inline display of pictures
  • Multi-picture support, incl. pinch-to-zoom
  • Embedded video/animated GIF playback
  • Link preview powered by Open Graph (e.g. for Instagram, Facebook, news sites etc.)
  • Retweet/In Reply to information on top of tweet
  • Favorites/Retweet count with every tweet
  • Favorite/retweet directly from your timeline
  • Reply to other tweets
  • Follow/unfollow people
  • Attach images/videos to tweets
  • Open tweet in browser
  • A lot of eye-candy

Grab it now from OpenRepos or Jolla Store!
Development is still in progress, so please expect some glitches here or there. There are already some known issues for this version such as
  • Image slideshow may sometimes partly hide the profile picture on bigger screens
  • If you favorite or retweet a tweet, scroll down or up and return later to the tweet, the favorite/retweet indicator will be reset. You need to refresh the timeline to get a proper status then.
  • The application is generally not optimized for bigger screens yet, but runs fairly well on the Jolla Tablet for example

Many other features are in the pipeline, so ensure to have always the latest update installed. Next versions will include:
  • Direct messages
  • Caching of timeline/notifications etc.
  • Details view for tweet
  • Support to display more than the last 200 tweets
  • Geocode your tweets
  • Show trending topics
  • Use embedded web viewer for links
  • List of followers/following accounts in profile page
  • More video playback options
  • Custom filters on timeline
  • ...and many more...
