Twitter Apps with Interactions - Android Apps and Games

What Twitter apps, other than the official Twitter app, support interactions, like showing you who retweeted you, favorited one of your tweets, etc.?

Falcon Pro got rid of interactions a couple months ago because of Twitter API changes. As far as I can tell, since I use Plume, I don't see interactions anywhere other than retweets of me. It's a damn shame Tweetcaster is a hideous app though. Doesn't look like they have updated their UI since the Gingerbread or earlier days.

@scottharris4 I am using FalconPro right now, and I do see tweet interactions...

What's the best twitter app out there? Speed etc...

Everyone tells me different things and It wont let me try more than 1 new client a day, smh.
i use twicca, it's my personal preference
TweetDeck works perfectly fine for me.
It all depends on preference.
I've used a lot of twitter apps.
For most features and nicest interfaces, I would say go with Touiteir Premium.
If you don't want to pay then go for Seesmic.
Personally, I like TweetDeck. I feel like like it is the fastest of all the Android twitter clients, but it lacks a lot of customization features. However, if you follow a lot of people and use lists then TweetDeck is worth the downloads because it's easy to switch between lists if they are loaded as columns.
Twicca is pretty speedy too, and not a bad alternative I just don't like the interface very much.
Do ANY have an ability to save a tweet as a draft?
Touiteir is the best
I would say Touiteur is the best Twitter Android application you can find in the Market in these days. I have been also using Twicca and Tweetdeck, but the Touiteur is still the best app. If not Touiteur I would choose Twicca.

I'll +1 on Touiteir, even the 'free' version is better than the five or six other clients I have tried. Come to think of it, Touiteir may be the first Android app I pay for.
Agree with the people. Touiteur is absolutely the best Twitter app for android

I would have assumed Twitter SMS uses less as, if I remember correctly, SMS is part of the signalling stack so the handset is already processing these messages.
Ok thanks. Been trying to figure this out, but google didn't work.

[Q] facebook update 1.6.0!! New 'Pages' feature...

There was a facebook for android update this evening. It said 'added pages', however I dont see that feature anywhere in the new update. Is any of you seeing the pages in your new facebook update?
Video uploading is now supported too. Where is that?
that sucks. I always wonder why iOS fb app is superior to Android fb app.
This is the worst android app, nothing more than a web app.

video upload can be found by tapping the camera at the top of your newsfeed.

Yeah exactly.... many users( even me as a page owner) were thinking if their efforts could be way easy on it... but it didn't helped... this application dissapointed me in many things while using it for friends even.. this application has many limitations which need to be solved out with a new user interface may be... But I was looking if page managing could be easy on it. But no! it has just enabled viewing of page yet... I can't make any post as a page there... and the link sharing is even not enabled.. which for me is a very important feature... this application sucks..!!!!

You can view a "Page", but have to find it your newsfeed first. Google it for more info.

Why invest millions of dollars improving a product that most people will use no matter how crappy it is? Besides, the less time people spend using the mobile app, the more time they can spend on the full web version, where the advertisements are.
and is it me or does the widget use up more battery now?

This feature was available in previous versions too. If you saw a post from a page you could view it. However there wasn' t a dedicated page feature to view pages whenever u want.

(Facebook) FriendCaster for Android

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.handmark.friendstream
another Facebook app optimized for Honeycomb has just been released.
NOTE: If you have FriendCaster for Android (non-optimized; phone version) on your tablet. If FriendCaster Tab doesn't download successfully, you need to uninstall the phone version.
First impressions, it looks very similar to FriendMe.
I keep getting the same notifications on FriendMe over and over and over again. Maybe Friendcaster will work better...

Same here, I'll get notification for new messages but will just sit there and never open up the message. Everything else seems good
Wow didn't think I would say friendcaster is wayyy better. I click on a picture and I can scroll to the other ones. And its ultra honeycomb smoothness with the graphic acceleration enabled
Pictures also load ultra fast aswell however messages are borked for now

Ah. So this confirms that its a overall app problem, hopefully it gets resolved soon.
P.S. new facebook chat with messaging integrated is TERRIBLE :X
I like it better than friend me so far, does a little bit more, smoother, and only beta, I wish I could view all my albums, but I'm sure its coming, I hope chqt gets integrated so I can delete go chat

I prefer Pulse and Flipboard
Pulse has this awful lag when scrolling, it might be because I didn't use background sync.
Taptu has a web reader too, not only for saved articles but for all.
Flipboard doesn't support offline reading.

Tried them all, and always back to greader :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...5ub2lubmlvbi5hbmRyb2lkLmdyZWFkZXIucmVhZGVyIl0.
1) Reader HD or JustReader (+ UI + Features)
2) Feedly (+ UI)
3) Press (+ UI - Features)
4) gReader (+ Features - UI)
PD: Downloading Taptu to test!
Press and Flow Reader, although Flow Reader's UI doesn't adapt as well to tablets.
NU.nl in the Netherlands
There is no other news or RSS app than greader, if you ask me. I can't believe how good it is. Any feature you could possibly want is there and it works without any problems. It's so good that I can't wrap my head around why anyone would use anything else. I've tried nearly all of them and I always come back to greader.
News Republic is in my opinin way better than FLipboard.
Not many people know it but its a really sick with a great widget !
Reader (HD) - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ageofmobile.reader&hl=en
Been using it for a couple years. Looks good, works perfectly, has all the features I want, and the dev's are pretty responsive.
side note: I don't understand how the blogs can fawn over a new app with a 'feature' that Reader has had for a year.

I only have one issue with this version, and it seems like the battery draining is huge with this version, otherwise, it looks very, VERY good and pretty stable for me. I'm happy because finally it looks even better than the iOS version, and the emoticons button is now placed in a more comfortable area.
Thanks for the heads up.

Probably it is a Beta version, but I don't think so, because it is already in the official download for Android, maybe it's about to be released on Google Play

^like he/she said. It's always been there. Works fine on the new version too.
No, I think he means the option to HIDE it. I find it an invasion of privacy (anyone who has your number can see when you're online, not only your contacts) so I don't use whatsapp more than to send my parents messages. I use Line until Whatsapp fixes that issue and bring it to a level that makes it on par with Android. Until then, I never answer people because I hate having people know when I'm using my phone to answer messages or not. One good thing in Line's favor is that it also has a PC Client version which means I get home, I can continue conversations directly, apart from the obvious privacy concern.
Come on Whatsapp, get your game on. This is an option that has been available for iOS for as long as I can remember, but you're lacking on Android.
