TweetCaster – the upgrade rocks across mobile clients

We first mentioned TweetCaster back in 2009 when it was just a BlackBerry app for Twitter. Since then they have gone multi-platform opening the doors to iPad, iPod, Windows Mobile , Bada, Android and still BlackBerry.

The new interface is quite impressive in the three different operating systems I tested on. Sporting millions of downloads, they have an impressive list of features:

All the basic Twitter functions
Zip It- hide unwanted tweets without unfollowing people
Send to Instapaper
Color coding
Nearby searches
Multiple themes and fonts
Info rich timeline
you can read the full list here

The client is free with banner ads or you can upgrade to the Pro version for $4.99. I did not find the ads very intrusive on the iPad, so give the free version a shot first.

Psst, they also now make FriendCaster which is Facebook for iPad and a few other cool apps.

Swift: An Android Twitter Client

Swift is the latest Twitter client to make its way to the Android platform. Swift packages every Twitter feature needed, and new tools such as Bit.ly url shortener into a stunning mobile UI. You can open links right inside of Swift, which also sports notifications for Twitter updates. Video and photo attachments are also supported.

TwitterRide – an ok Android client

TwitterRide is nothing like Twidroid that we profiled this morning. The interface is simple, not fancy and the features are coming along.

As you can see this is under development and I think has a single person working on it. Quite impressive if so. It is in the 1.x release cycle with new enhancements often. So make sure you check for updates regularly. From the changelog of the site there is incremental updates every one to two weeks recently.

Twidroid – the premium Android client

Twidroid offers a full featured client for your Android phones. The list of features was long and comprehensive and it appeared they were trying to make the most out of the integration with the native operating system. Such things as you expect like GPS is there, with support for the local photo gallery and photo posting right from the camera.

As you can see, there is a lot to offer in this 2.0 release of the client. it will adjust automatically for portrait or landscape mode and has native URL shortening to add to the list.

Twitli – client for Android phones

I wondered when we would create this category, Twitli for Android based mobile devices. One thing I immediately admired was how the developers at Twitli went for a simplistic initial user interface. While the client has all of the features available (a few being tweaked), many are only available from a secondary menu to keep the UI clean. After clicking a username you are able to:

* send an @reply
* send a DM
* view that users messages
* view their website
* view their profile
* see their full name
* stop following them
* change their language settings (if translation is on)
* view tweeps in your current friends timeline on a map

I would suggest looking at their screenshots and demo videos for more!
