About Tweet Lanes

Are you on the lookout for not just a good, but a great Android Twitter client?

If so, prepare yourself for a gorging of Twitter fuelled, Ice Cream Sandwich inspired goodness!

Some notable features of Tweet Lanes:
✓ The native Android ICS styling has been shamelessly applied to Tweet Lanes, which makes for the most beautiful Twitter client available on Android.
✓ Designed and engineered to adhere strictly to the Android Design guidelines.
✓ Fully embraces the Android swipe controls.
✓ VolScroll™ - Use the hardware volume buttons to quickly navigate your feed. Very handy on larger phones such as the Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy S3!
✓ Interact with multiple tweets at the same time using multiple selection. Very handy for replying to multiple people in a single tweet or blocking spammers.
✓ Multiple account support.
✓ Automatically preview images and videos in your feed.
✓ Get ready for a new means of tweeting. There's no 'New Tweet' button here. Instead, the ever present Context Tweet Box will serve all your tweet-creation needs.
✓ The Twitter client Android power-tweeters have been craving.
✓ 100% open source on GitHub!

What are users saying about Tweet Lanes

B70%
by B####:

Really great app with a persistent visual indicator of which account one is using as well as a fast option to switch between them. Dark Theme is fine, search is easy to reach and the settings headings are written in a way that i know where everything is. So why not five stars? First, I can't like/retweet in the timeline, I have to open each tweet. Secondly, posted Twitter web links can't be displayed, oddly enough.

X70%
by X####:

A good, stable, streamlined & no bullshit, to the point Tweeting app that doesn't invade your privacy, with one major flaw; It doesn't support push notifications :( That is why I have to only rate it at three stars. I would gladly pay a few euros for this if the notifications would work, but it doesn't seem very likely that they would be implemented, since it has already been over two years since the last program update. Such a shame.

X70%
by X####:

Finally decided to give this app a proper try and, well, as the title says, it just crashes every time I try to attach an image to a tweet. Looks like it's not been updated for a while either so will likely just try something else.

Q70%
by Q####:

Opening any picture is crashing an app for more than half a year. I have send numerous reports and still no updates. One could think that at least on pure Android on Nexus this will work fine... but no.

V70%
by V####:

I've been using for a long time and would give it 5 stars but it is no longer working and not getting fixed. Crashes when you select pictures and links in tweets just linking to the tweet they are embedded in. Uninstalling

W70%
by W####:

there is a feature to add another account but it doesn't work. it only authorizes the previous account. either app is buggy or this is intentional. app also sometimes takes long time to load or it doesn't load at all. uninstalled

X70%
by X####:

Loved this app, but since getting a new phone the app keeps crashing when I try to view an image, does anyone else have this issue? Would be a solid 5 if I could view images again.

X70%
by X####:

Once you follow 50 people you can no longer follow or UN-follow anyone.The UN-follow button disappears. Does not show how many people starred the tweet.Missing basic functionalities but overall it's a great alternative to stock Twitter .

X70%
by X####:

Well, I tried almost every free Twitter app and this one is the winner by a large margin! No problem logging into accounts. Easy to read and use. Very clean and fast. Great job!

U70%
by U####:

I would give this app 5 stars if it did not freeze up which is quite frequent and if there were a way to block bullies and trolls. They are more prevalent than ever on twitter. This a a much needed feature. Other than these issues it's the best twitter app by far.

N70%
by N####:

Many other annoying Twitter apps out there, want money, provide ads, and just make it inconvenient to use. I have switched to yours as I no longer trust Twitter's own with access to my contacts. Thank you for the work you've done on this.

D70%
by D####:

Used to be the best Twitter client ever but since the Marshmallow upgrade it crashes everytime I click on a photo. Unfortunately the contact developer feature elicits no response and I'm now looking for a replacement. Very disappointing.

U70%
by U####:

The only thing reason I did not give this a five-star rating is because it lacks the ability to organize lanes into the order I'd like to see them. It gets a bit tedious swiping continuously to get to the lane I want. Otherwise, this is an excellent app.

U70%
by U####:

Force closes when opening a picture with Marshmallow. If it could be fixed I'd definitely stay with this app, however this hasn't received an update for a year and a half now, and seems forgotten. Time to move on I guess, shame, loved this app. UPDATE: Tried the official Twitter app, it's rubbish!! Now using TwitPane and it's really good.

Don't like the word limit in DM's.Would also like to rearrange the lanes instead of scrolling back and forth.

Been using this for ages but since I moved to marshmallow crashes when I tap on images. Don't think it's going to be updated :(

U70%
by U####:

My problem in tweeting is I talk a lot or should I say chirp a lot. Can this app stand my longer than 140 characters chirps?

U70%
by U####:

Since I got my update to Marshmallow,it crashes every time I click on an image. Hope there will be a bug fix for this.

Okay, but...Crashed when trying to open an image..please help

Looked promising But every time I clicked on a picture to open it the app crashed so deleted it,Galaxy S6 Edge , Marshmellow.

L70%
by L####:

easy to use, simple and clean--no ads. I really appreciate it :) if you add an in-app browser everything will be perfect.

R70%
by R####:

Good twitter app with all the features you'd want in an app. Like others the only thing keeping it from 5 stars is that the UI is dated, but I still use it on my tablet as my primary twitter app

G70%
by G####:

I dunno if it's a runaway process or something but this app can make my phone seriously hot, even after quitting.

This is probably the smallest twitter client out there, and is amazing! It doesn't have all the clutter that the other apps have. It's very easy to install, login, go. Very nice if you want a simple twitter client without clutter!

R70%
by R####:

I've used this as my twitter client for a long time. Works great, excepting it doesn't really work if you want to see reactions to a tweet for people that you don't follow. That doesn't work. With Android Marshmallow, the non updates to this so really show. If you click on a picture, it crashes. Maybe time to move on

R70%
by R####:

My favourite client but it lacks support for galleries and animated gifs. Sometimes waits endlessly when loading new tweets; killing app and trying again then loads tweets normally.

J70%
by J####:

Was good but now doesn't load all tweets, only the previous few hours. Not good when checking in morning. Unable to see videos or conversations unless u open link. Not practical

R70%
by R####:

You can't mute someone you follow or mute just one person's retweets. This is something I find really useful on Tweetcaster, which I'm not using atm because their link system is messed up after their latest update. If they fix it I'll probably go back but it would only be for these two features.

K70%
by K####:

Since marshmallow update clicking on a picture forces close, hopefully the developer's working on it then I'll revise my review.

All i want was here, thanks alot bro

R70%
by R####:

Good app but a few small annoyances. It's a bit slow to load tweets however once it has it does load a lot more than other Twitter apps. Also only loads a certain number of tweets and then I have to wait for a while before I can load the rest. If these could be sorted I would rate it a 5.

V70%
by V####:

Very useful but GUI is very old.
