"Twitter - it's very strange service - complained to me one pal - everyone writes about something else, short, disconnected... From all this formed a chaotic band. If there is this some kind of sense, then it a bit. "
With this statement is debatable, but often there is really a lack of context: what to answer a particular user? How did the discussion? This problem was solved by the developers of the Glasshouse Apps, releasing a client for Twitter, which is focused on conversations instead of individual messages to 140 characters in length.
Posts in Quip traditionally are a common thread. However, there is a difference: if a tweet someone said or yourself tweet is a response to someone else's message, it will be listed under the users involved in the discussion. One tap - and the conversation is visible in its entirety. Form submission vaguely reminiscent of blog comments. This approach makes the once disparate tweets whole discussion. The picture is displayed in its entirety.
It happens sometimes that I want to know what they say about other people tweet. There is also an opportunity: Hold tap on the avatar of the author - there are answers to other users (which you do not Fallaway).
Helps combat noise and other chip Quip - only view popular tweets that have been Retweet (copied) 5 +, 10+, 20+ or 50 times. In fact, it allows you not to read the whole tape (all these "I ran 2 km", "zachekinilsya in the transformer box," "added to favorites YouTube-Video"), and the only really popular posts. It turns svoebraznaya "picture of the day."
Instagram, Camera + and the standard photoappendices allow a pair tapov send a picture to Twitter. Share memorable moments become fashionable, people post pictures of where the rest, what they eat, what surprised. In Quip has a special view mode tweets when only shows pictures (no text, links, and geotagging).
Glasshouse Apps - a well-known studio that produces the application of very high class. Design RSS-client The Early Edition 2 Barista and programs for the iPhone left nobody indifferent. Quip is no exception. Visually, the program looks great, although I would argue that it is the most beautiful twitter client, as many have claimed. A lot of interesting details. I really liked the vertical scale of time, performed in the style of Time Machine. I usually check the tape a couple of times a day. The gaps are large, and because of the limitations of Twitter does not show all posts. Timeline in Quip allows you to move at the right time in the past, and start reading from there.
I would like to say about Quip more good words, but prevent deficiencies. The client does not support some of the basic features of Twitter - such as lists. The tape is not updated instantly, and not even on the schedule (such as "every 5 minutes"), and in manual mode. After the experience with Tweetbot have no desire to use the built-in browser Quip - he was deprived of the option "to adapt the web page for a mobile device screen." Lack of support for Tweet Marker means that the read messages will not be synchronized between different devices. The ability to automatically filter the tweets (on a specific hashtag, client, etc.) or "mute" at the time, too, there is no noisy users.
Quip - an interesting application and a good Twitter client. But judging by the most stringent Hamburg score, he almost loses on all counts Tweetbot'uThat is devoid of most of the above drawbacks, but at the same time allows you to see the entire discussion.
