Best Twitter apps for iPhone on iOS 7: Tweetbot 3, Twitterrific 5, Echofon, and more!

[iMore.com]

Twitter has changed. It's no longer the domain of nerds and conferences but now serves the mainstream, not to mention pop stars with tens of millions of followers. Twitter's official app has changed with it, altering the way everything from the timeline to direct messages work and are surfaced. It's not what it once was, and its certainly not for everyone. While Twitter is no longer supportive of third party apps, and is actively trying to strangle them out of existence, many really good Twitter app alternatives still call the App Store home. And that's a very good thing, because many people use Twitter very differently. For some, it's just a way to follow celebrities or keep up with news. For others, its a virtual water cooler to chat around during work breaks. For yet others, it's a network to expand their social connections and market their wares. Different apps suit different use-cases. But which one is best, and for whom? Here are some of my favorites!

As I've stated on numerous occasions, I'm content switching back and forth between the official Twitter app and Tweetbot. Currently, I'm using Tweetbot 3 and really enjoying it....

I use the official Twitter app over here. I'm kind of a sucker for 'official' stuff.

I'm currently using Tweetbot 2 on my iPad and Tweetbot 3 on my iPhone. I think Tapbots has me as a customer for the foreseeable future. Once they release a night mode, I think I'll be 100% satisfied with Tweetbot 3

I stay stock with Official Twitter App As well...

I love Tweetbot 3! Last I checked the official app didn't have the mute feature.

I'm officially a Tweetbot 3 convert. Used echofon for the longest and since their notifications aren't working, I switched.

Well I can see I am out numbered but Twitterffic for me. I just like the simple features and how they work, There is so much integration with many other apps like Instagram and so on. Hey everyone has to be different in the group right.

Using the official Twitter app. Haven't encountered any problems with it yet. Though, I haven't tried any of the 3rd party Twitter apps out there so I really don't know what I'm missing.
