Tweetbot users get ready to update

We all love Tweetbot! It is definitely the perfect app to remove all the clutter from Twitter. Tapbots, the parent company, is rolling out a critical update for iOS devices. The update will be available on the Apple AppStore on May 29th, 10 AM P.S.T.

The update is critical since the app will be defunct on any versions prior to 2.8.8 or 3.2.2. This update follows the new API Twitter will be rolling out. Tapbots is closely working with Twitter to make the changes happen as fluidic as possible.

This update will not change how Tweetbot works, it will just make it work better. Here’s what the Tapbots blog tells us,

A couple weeks ago Twitter’s Platform Operations group contacted us and asked us to make a small change to the way Tweetbot communicates with the Twitter API. This change will have no affect on the way Tweetbot works, however two things will occur once this change goes live. All versions of Tweetbot prior to 2.8.8 or 3.3.2 will stop working and you may need to log into your account again. So make sure you are running the latest versions of the app and be prepared to authenticate your account once more. We will be coordinating with Twitter to make the final change on May 29th at 10 A.M. PST. Stay up to date via our @tweetbot account. Thanks for your continued support!
