You do have to log in to each of these accounts in Twitterrific but you do so once. Twitter tried to help you, too, by automatically entering the last account details you logged in with so actually I end up muttering as you delete that and enter the account you want.
If you use Twitter online then have to start each session by through logging in on separate tabs. Twitterrific is also fast and convenient when you have multiple Twitter accounts and this is something that's been improved with version 5.2.4. For instance, we have BBC News's Twitter feed up in one corner of our iMac screen courtesy of Twitterrific and so all day we see when news breaks. Then by default, Twitterrific's screen is narrow and short like an iPhone's one so it's easy to leave it open beside your work in Word, Excel or anything else. It lets you finish reading a tweet before it suddenly scrolls off the screen because Twitter's updated. It keeps everything so you can scroll back. Whereas, if you use an app like Twitterrific instead then it grabs your feed whenever you are connected. Then be prepared to fiddle about with multiple Safari tabs and resizing windows to show a couple of Twitter accounts alongside your other work, too. Or at least you can so long as you only want to dip in. In fact, if you do that then you can indeed use Twitter in Safari just fine. It's still $7.99 - but, you've already got Safari and can go to as easily as you can any other site. While you can never know what will happen in the future, the company plans to keep the app at this price at least for a long time.
Plus the developers, The Icon Factory, tell us that this isn't a short-term price drop to attract users of the abandoned official app and it isn't a launch price for their update.
CHANGE COLOURS IN TWITTERRIFIC UPDATE
Yet if that's opportune, it's also a coincidence: this week happens to see a new update to the app.
CHANGE COLOURS IN TWITTERRIFIC FOR MAC
It wasn't the greatest of shocks, then, when this news was followed by the makers of Twitterrific for Mac announcing a price cut from $19.99 to $7.99. It's the publicists' syllogism: we need to say something positive, this is positive, we must say this. Twitter, the company, has this month announced it's abandoning the Mac but of course did it in PR-speak by telling us we'd be happier using the service in Safari instead of an app.
