Twitter App Wish list
With the announcement that Blackberry has put their Twitter App into the beta-invite phase, I decided to compile a rough list of what features I look for in an app.
1. Streamlined Interface (If I can’t figure out where to go I could care less about the features)
2. Notifications (I need to be able to change the frequency of notifications and how they are received)
2a. Push Notifications (Really hoping Blackberry can bring this to their devices.)
3. Appearance (Who wants to look at something that isn’t attractive and appealing?)
4. Features (Having different abilities to shorten links, integrate pictures/videos, insert your location etc. are always pluses to any service and make it more robust)
5. Organization (Having all my different feeds, groups and messages in obvious and easy to find locations is key)
6. @ Responses (I would love to see Ubertwitter’s @-picker integrated into other apps, sometimes it can be tiring to type in multiple users @names)
7. Memory Usage (The smaller amount of memory that is consumed is best — without sacrificing features or notifications)
8. Font (Maybe nitpicking at this point, but sometimes different fonts make an app look cheap, would appreciate full customization)
9. Icons (Obviously tied in closely with Fonts, it needs to have “Apple-ized” icons that are clean-cut and easy to differentiate between)
10. Transitions/Visual Actions (Much like TweetGenius has done, the small details like a “poof” animation for sending a tweet can really round out a app and makes it more pleasing to use)
