If you hate the new version of Twitter’s iPhone app that has been completely redesigned, which revolves around four concepts: Home, Connect, Discover and Me, then checkout Tweetbot – a popular Twitter app for the iPhone, which comes with a brilliant user interface.

Tapbots – developer of the Twitter app has made the decision to switch even easier as they’ve slashed the price of their iPhone app. It’s now available in the App for $0.99 instead of $2.99.

Tweetbot includes the following new features:

  • Multiple Timelines. Quickly switch between your lists as your main timeline.
  • Smart Gestures. Use Twitter more efficiently with time-saving and configurable gestures.
  • Native Push Notifications.
  • Customizable Navigation. The last 2 tabs are customizable and unused tabs are easily accessible.
  • Support for multiple services like Read it Later, Instapaper, Cloudapp URL Shortening.
  • Save drafts, add locations and POI’s, attach photos and videos, manage your lists, and much more.

My only request on Tweetbot is that they would develop an iPad version of the app.  I have several Twitter apps but Tweetbot has become the go-to app for the past several months.  Check it out and let me know what you think.

Flipboard for iPhone is released


I have been anticipating the release of Flipboard for iPhone.  If you are not familiar with it, you should be!  It was previously only available for iPad and from the first time I used it, I was hooked.  Flipboard puts all of your newsfeeds in one place and presents them in a magazine-like spread.

One thing that is new for the iPhone version is Cover Stories.   Here is an explanation of Cover Stories from Flipboard.

With Flipboard for iPhone we’re introducing Cover Stories — one place to quickly catch up on some of the most interesting news, updates and photos being shared with you right now. The more you interact with your friends and the stories being shared, the smarter Cover Stories gets. You can refine what appears here by adding content to your Flipboard, muting anyone you’d rather not hear from, and connecting to your social networks. Cover Stories will be coming to your iPad in the near future.

You can download Flipboard for iPhone now in the App Store…it’s FREE!

360 Panorama provides realtime panoramic creation on the iPhone and iPan (Universal App) for only $1.99!  I love the ease of use with this app.  Just hit the button and start to rotate it in any direction.  When you’re done, just hit the button again and you can instantly share it on Twitter or Facebook.  No need to wait forever while it stitches.  This app is pretty cool.

AC-7 Pro Control Surface for iPad

One of the tipping points for me in getting an iPad early on was “how will this help me in my weekly worship leading.  Granted, I am quite the Apple enthusiast but didn’t want to just get an iPad just to say I had one.  Once I saw the AC-7 Pro Control Surface app, I was hooked.  This control surface has modes for Logic, Digital Perfomer, Pro Tools as well as Mackie Universal Control.  I have used it in ProTools, however, it is very buggy and not as enjoyable of an experience.  Once I hooked it up to Ableton, I was stoked.  I ended up replacing my Axiom 61 on stage for the iPad!

One of the ways that I use AC-7 Pro is by setting my Click on Channel 1 and Loop/Perc on Channel 2.  This gives me a standard way of adjusting my fader levels without having to think too much. The only I really need to adjust anything is to boost the click level or fade the loop.  I then midi map the “Select” button at the bottom of each fader to a particular song.  This gives me the ability to jump to a particular song on the fly.  There are many more features that I could cover in a later post but here is a quick look at AC-7 Pro and how I use it on a weekly basis.

AC-7 Pro is available in the iTunes App Store and sells for $9.99.
