So what do you think is the best Twitter app? The official is really good but it lags insanely. That bothers me... If you guys got some good Twitter apps... Please share.

Does it get updated anymore?
I use Tweetdeck with Tweetdark theme.
Its a sweet look (very black with white text) and Tweetdeck combines feeds like facebook if you want.
Definitely recommend.

The official twitter app and Tweetcaster Pro. Haven't tried Plume but heard good things.
Tweetdeck is owned by Twitter now, right?
is there any third party twitter apps that support push notification like the official one? i can't find it.
Tried twitter, tweet caster, tweetdeck for sometime.. they are all cool.. but been using Plume for a few days and wow its just took good!!

Twitter Client
Seesmic for me, i have tried most of the Twitter client, for me seesmic suited the best.

Plume free here.
though am seriously considering paying for the adverts to go away.
and yes, I got an update the other day.
If seasmic allows dark theme, it will be the best, for now, plume.
Does the paid version of Plume let you set which region you want to see trends from? I'm using the free version at the moment and it seems to only have US trending topics (or world, maybe). I don't really want to pay for it if I can't set it to UK topics.

Where did you guys get Trillian from? I don't see it in my Market ...
Even though AIM kinda sucks, I use it for AOL and Facebook usually.
I even tried APP Brain to install it, but not dice.
ADB install it or use Astro or something.... Here's the apk (just got it off my DroidX)...

I use meebo. Used to use it for a cloud client till I found imo, but the meebo android client is nice. I tried the trillian beta but it seemed to sip more resources than meebo, but that could just be in my head. on windoze I still use trillian, and I haven't tried it since it became a paid app on android, so it could have improved.
Friendcaster is a hands down, far superior app for Facebook, then the Official Facebook app. It does it in less room, with a plethora of options the Official app doesn't have. I can do almost everything on Friendcaster I can online, and faaaaarrrrrrrrr more then the FB app. Try it!!
hmmm, I will have to check it out. Thanks for the 411
Thanks sinsin it is a better app than facebook android.
Bummer it doesn't have chat.
Black facebook! Its the best ! Its not in the market tho

seems to me that what this app does os mostly provide notifications of updates and then send you to the facebook app or the webpage to do updates or even simply reply to messages. Will have to play with it some more however.

Been forever. If you're using the free version it doesn't do half of what the paid one does. If youre using the paid version there are options in the settings to choose actions for things. So it really does everything better. Even the FB app forces you to the website for stuff. Plus the paid version of Friendcaster has a black theme, to answer the post before yours. Not sure what options the free version has so if you're using it read up on it. It may be limited to certain things and options.

Is it just me or is the facebook app lagging really bad?
On older versions it was a little faster.
I'm using fasty rom.

Yep I do like the older versions the new one sucks.
I believe it has a memory leak. I've seen it climb up to 44mb of ram. I emailed the dev but never got a reply.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using xda premium
It's an absolutely terribly coded app. It's basically the web interface with terribly memory management issues. It's hit as high as 55MB of RAM usage on my phone. I recommend just making a bookmark to the mobile sit and using that through the browser. It's essentially the same experience until we can get a decent Facebook app
Also the notifications are a joke.

Try these instead
a wrapper for the mobile site, really good overall.

Replacement app, UI is not amazing but at least it works!

Yeah the Facebook App has always been extremely slow for me. Takes upwards of 30+ seconds to sometimes refresh news feeds or to change sections. I've opted to use the mobile site version instead now... and guess I'll give friend caster a try!

No it deffinatly still lags. Even the newest version is slow. Sometimes I prefer just logging on through my browser.

It rarely notifies you, which is extremely annoying.
Facebook app is one SORRY A$$ excuse for an app...i really don't understand how they have that many people working and the updates just kept getting worse and worse...now it's just a huge battery hog and doesn't even do what it's supposed to properly...all those negative comments in the reviews and they just lie complacent as if nothing's going on....i swear it's a ruse by Zuckerberg showing favoritism to Apple probably...a-holes
Thanks for the TIP on the Friendcaster. that works very fast. now adding to my tablet as well.
One other tip I'd offer is looking into Tinfoil for Facebook. It's essentially just a cached, Sandbox'd version of the mobile site, but there's a dedicated app for it, and it does run fairly fast on my phone!
Friendcaster is lightyears faster and more efficient than the Official Facebook App.
The facebook app is utter crap. Way too slow!! Better off using the browser.

Hey guys,
I just install the CM9 rom and I need basic apps like facebook for tablets (that fit well on the screen).
because I downloaded the facebook app and what I see in the central wall is a status with little words and a huge pictures.
same question here, the facebook app is terrible for GT 2
Use friendcaster pro for facebook

thanks, I will try the free version, looks good
The Facebook app for Gtab 2 7 sucks. I wish Facebook would just release a version that is optimized for Tablets.. Until then I just use my broswer to view the desktop version for Facebook.
friendcaster is very very very good app for facebook
+1 for Flipboard! I don't generally like the idea of a "newsreader", but this one is awesome! It actually can be connected up to Facebook and Twitter, is very easy to set up, and does a really nice job of aggregating news stories and formatting them so they look really nice on the 7" screen.
The first thing I always install is SwiftKey 3, which is pretty much my favorite Android keyboard app. There's a free version available for trial. For the GT2 7.0 you'll want to use the Tablet version (which is what I linked to).
Hello all,
Heavy twitter user and looking for an app closely resembling tweet bot which imo is the best twitter app.
I've tried official (reluctantly keeping installed) plume and tweet caster (both free versions) and not one comes close.
Let me know what you all use and give honest gripes and positives of yours!

Sure, I have all .. !! To use 360 degrees and Tweetings the best, because it integrates both the push notification and refresh notification .. Others have only the refresh notification timeline
Taken a punt on tweetings. Could not find 360 degrees..
Thanks!

Fenix imo is the closest to Tweetbot, which I agree was the best 3rd party Twitter app I've ever used. Heavy Twitter user.
