Lumiapp: MeTweets (Twitter client) – Free today only! (WP8 only)

I just found out that MeTweets, a twitter client for Windows Phone 8 is available free. I have heard people rave about it, so figured I should give it a go. Boy am I glad I did!

I am normally snobby with my apps. I find ones I use, and stay loyal with them (twabbit on wp7, Tweetian and rocket on N9) but on my Lumia 820 I have been experimenting a bit more.

Anyway enough babbling. On to the app. It supports notifications, streaming, multiple accounts, tweet scheduling, in-line actions (tap tweet in timeline to get reply, rt, favourite etc without leaving the timeline page), theming options, threaded DMs, flick down to “jump” (set up columns eg, timeline, mentions, messages etc, and swiping down the title brings up a list of all columns so you can “jump” to that section), resume timeline from last position, and the list keeps going!

Here is the info from the Store listing:

Clearly I didn’t do it justice at all!
