Iconfactory Plans to Rebuild Twitterrific for Mac with Kickstarter Campaign

The Iconfactory has launched a Kickstarter for Twitterrific for Mac. The company wants to rebuild the Mac version of this venerable Twitter client for the Mac, and the company is looking to raise US$75,000 to do it.



We Have the Technology


I say “rebuild,” but the company’s plan is to build it from scratch, using some code from the popular iOS version of the app. Citing a 6-7 month timeline, Iconfactory said it wants to release Twitterrific for Mac—codenamed Phoenix—with the following features:



  • Unified home timeline

  • Multiple account support

  • Composing, replying, and quoting tweets

  • Muffles and mutes

  • Streaming

  • Themes

  • Delete and edit your own tweets

  • Sync timeline position with iOS

  • VoiceOver Accessibility

  • Keyboard control

  • Attaching images to tweets

  • Timeline search (text filter/find)

  • Open links to other tweets, profiles and media in your browser


To be honest, I like Twitter’s own Mac client (YMMV), but it always feels neglected, especially compared to the iOS client.

I’d love to see Twitterrific rise anew.
