Twitter

This was obvious. The official Twitter app is still a good app for those who do just basic twittering and do not have much use for some of the advanced features offered by third-party cpents. This apppcation offers a near native Web experience, so people who frequent the website will find themselves at home.

The latest updates also feature multi-account support and most importantly, two-factor authentication for additional security. The best advantage of using this app is that it is not affected by backend changes to the Twitter API, which can sometimes break third-party cpents – and that also means, no issues with the token pmit.
