Beautiful interfaces, easy display of tweets and many useful small features.

1. Twitter Lite

This is an application from the developers of Twitter, which has an extremely modest consumption of system resources and a small size. It weighs less than a megabyte, but it works great nonetheless, allowing you to comfortably read your feed, retweet entries, and chat. Plus, Twitter Lite saves mobile traffic and has a built-in night theme.

2. Owly

A very nice and handy Twitter reader application. Its feature is a customizable interface. There are many themes and templates to choose from that change Owly's appearance to your liking.

The app has a special tab that collects the most relevant tweets for you, so you will always be aware of important news. Finally, a particularly useful feature of Owly is the ability to turn text into pictures. This is great if you want to post a message that falls outside the Twitter mark limit.

3. Plume

Plume has been around for quite some time - it used to be called Touiteur. And it is deservedly one of the most popular alternative Twitter clients.

It has everything for avid fans of the social network: convenient widgets, and support for multiple accounts, and autocomplete hashtags, and geotagging, and an internal browser. Plus, Plume can display your Facebook feed as well.

4. Twidere

A minimalistic application for those who just want to read tweets, and not understand a bunch of advanced features. Twidere is open source and supports concurrent use of multiple accounts and filtering of posts. In addition, the app has a night mode.

5. Fenix 2

This client costs money, but provides you with several handy additional features. For example, you can customize and use quick action gestures that take place when you tap on a tweet for a long time. This can be an instant reply, a quote, a like, a retweet, and other operations.

The second feature of Fenix 2 is the ability to undo a tweet, which comes in handy if you've written something by mistake. The application interface is highly customizable - there are several themes, a choice of color palette, and several templates for displaying tweets. In general, this is a very high quality solution with advanced features that is well worth the money.

6. Talon

Talon is very similar to Fenix 2, but it also has its own unique features. For example, a built-in, easy-to-use-g.webp

Plus, Talon also has an Android Wear app, so avid Twitter fans can view, retweet, and like posts with this client without taking their smartphone out of their pocket.

7. Storm It

Finally, a simple application for those who are annoyed by Twitter's limit on the number of characters in a post. Instead of typing in a tweet, hitting the Submit button and then writing a follow up, try Storm It.

The application consists of one large text field in which you can write down your thoughts without being distracted by the character limit. Once entered, Storm It will show your posts broken down into individual tweets in a preview and group them in the correct order before posting. The app also allows you to save texts as drafts.
