The Best Twitter Client for Android
Twicca
The features above are just the tip of the iceberg. Twicca's greatest strength is the fact that it's so feature rich and powerful without being in-your-face with a ton of buttons, options, icons, and menus. Almost everything can be accessed by long-pressing on a tweet or user's icon. For proof of this, head into the settings menu to see the ridiculous amount of customization and tweaking options available just under the surface. Even if you don't color-code your tweets, Twicca makes it easy to organize your stream, see tweets from the people who are most important to you, and perhaps best of all doesn't clutter up the interface with tools so you can open it, read, refresh, post, see your mentions and direct messages, and move on.
If you need that power though, it's right there under the hood. Color-coding or muting someone is simple, searching is easy, and Tetsuya Aoyama, the developer behind Twicca, went out of his way to make sure all of the icons are clear and easy to understand. You'll never need to wonder what a button does, and you won't need to rely on text labels to do something. Plus, the built-in image viewer inserts itself into Android's built-in list of image viewers, which means anytime you click on an image in any other app, you have the option to use Twicca's image viewer—which loads the image in a translucent frame over your app, so you don't have to leave the app and open a browser to see the image. It's a huge feature, one you'll never realize you depend on until you start using it. Twicca is probably the most intuitive Twitter client I've ever used, which is saying a lot considering how many features it packs. Plus, Twicca doesn't support the built-in Twitter ads and "sponsored tweets" that Twitter has been introducing in other clients, so you get an ad-free read.
