Overall, the new design is airy, with a lot more white space than the previous version. I am excited that active development has resumed! Let’s hope that the developers will keep working and address some of the rougher spots in this new version. It’s great to see Twitter finally updating its OS X app. I also haven’t yet seen some of the bugs that the old app had for years, like clicks in one Tweet inadvertently performing their actions on an entirely different Tweet.

Twitter for Mac also now has a Today Widget in Notification Center (which shows global trends and highlights from your personal timeline), and a new dark theme for those of us who prefer light text on dark windows instead of the other way around.
Previously, you had to click on a quoted tweet URL to view that tweet-not fun-and on a tweet URL to open a browser window to watch video or animations. The new app supports inline video playback, animated GIFs, group DMs, muting, and tweet-quoting support, all major Twitter platform features that previously weren’t supported by the Twitter for mac app. It also, perhaps unsurprisingly, has some issues.įirst, the good stuff. Well, good news? Twitter for Mac version 4.0 appeared Wednesday-featuring the phrase “don’t call it a comeback” at the top of the release notes-and it’s got some major improvements.
I’m an everyday user of Twitter for Mac 1, and have been lamenting its seeming abandonment for a while now. Old Twitter (left) and New Twitter (right) in Dark Mode. Warning: This story has not been updated in several years and may contain out-of-date information.
