Twitter Clients for Windows Phone Users

Rowi

Rowi is probably the best twitter client available on the Windows Phone platform. Rowi gives WP users a unique experience with its gesture integrations and multi account support. Now, the bar is set by Rowi. Whether you are die hard fan of Twitter or are just a beginner, this Twitter client is perfect for you. It offers you some subtle features that no other Twitter client does.

The nice Metro Interface of the app, gives you a feeling like, this third-party app is part of Microsoft’s modern UI family. You can tweet with inclusion of pictures, links, location etc., can edit the pictures before using them in your tweets, can manage multiple Twitter accounts and a lot more with the Rowi.

These features make it the best Twitter client for Windows Phone 7/8 users. One amazing feature is Tweet translation which is done with Bing. Though the app is free, but some features like configurable Push Notifications; are available in the paid version only. In case, if you’re a serious twitter addict then we highly recommend you to buy this Windows Phone application over others.

gleek!

gleek! is yet another enticing twitter client for Windows Phone 7 and 8 users. For WP8 users, it has integrated voice control option, which allows you to quickly compose, reply and quote tweets with voice command. It rivals traditional player like Rowi. The usual options like timelines, mentions, search, friend list, messages, replies, @mentions functions are already available in this client.

There is also an optional light theme available for those who wants to try out something different. Inline support for images, videos and locations is just an ice topping cake. Paid users can also enjoy ringtones, tile notification, local scout, twitlonger and Read it Later option. The read it later option will let you add a tweet or link to your Pocket account.

With the sad demise of Carbon, WP community users are left with gleek and Rowi only. Carbon had some of the notable gesture feature that earned it a crown of the notable twitter client, however, it is discontinued by the developer team. Gleek is the right candidate to fill the void created after the sad departure of Carbon app.

Seesmic

Would you like to monitor multiple social networking sites instead of just twitter? When the twitter battle began, Seemic was one of the prime player, besides TweetDeck, in the market. It’s a desktop application and iOS application made it an obvious choice for the people.

Having said that, Seemic lets you manage multiple twitter accounts, a Facebook account and Salesforce Chatter account from the single interface.

You can manage your multiple social networking accounts at the same instance. Seesmic keeps you notified about the trending topics on social media, by listing them in the “spaces” dashboard.
