The big feature/gripe is the unread tweet sync, it only works with the iPhone counterpart (which doesn't do it for me) but is probably the reason for the price. There are enough options (growl, dock, menubar and kb shortcut to show etc) to suit most if not all users workflows without being in the way. I can't really comment on list support as it's not something I personally use but it does support bit.ly url shortening and it's accounts, plixi and twitpic for image uploading but a wide range of services for image and video are also supported for popup viewing. It also tells you in the timeline when you have new followers and when your tweets have been fav'd more unique features include ssl for all requests (secure) and real time streaming so no more refreshing or waiting around for tweets to arrive. that's in all profiles, in your own profile it also has a tab for retweets giving you further tabs for retweets made by your followers, made by you AND your own tweets retweeted by others (sadly it doesn't tell you who did it). It supports tweet conversation views, in app displaying of full twitter profiles, tweets, followers, following, lists and listing and starred favourites. There are a lot of unusual features for a Mac twitter client It has near complete keyboard shortcuts, enough to get by 90% of the time without ever moving your cursor but sadly lacking in the search tab. Some may baulk at the price but this really is the best twitter client I've come across and yes like few others here I've tried out lots of different apps. This helps you keep focus on the main timeline while pulling up other information as needed. Never again will you read the same tweet twice!Įchofon has a unique drawer interafce that is used for supplementary tasks such as viewing a user's profile, timeline, favorites, followers, etc. If you read tweets on your Mac and later open up Echofon on your iPhone, you can pick up right where you left off. Unread tweets stay in sync with your iPhone. Use all of your Twitter accounts in Echofon, account switching is easy and you'll see a subtle notification for mentions and messages you receive in background accounts. Echofon uses handy indicators to show which tweets have photos, videos, location, conversations, etc. You can also attach screen captures, current iTunes song, or current page in Safari. It stays out of the way when necessary and expands to support all the advanced features you need, when you need them.Įasily attach photos to your tweets with drag-and-drop. As the presenter, if you pause the video on your screen - it will be paused for everyone else watching the same video.The Echofon interface was carefully designed to be comfortably left open all day. If someone enters a room after a video has already started playing on a presentation board, then the video will start from the beginning from their point of view, even though it continues uninterrupted for everyone else. Unfortunately, everyone who intends to watch the video needs to be present at the time the video is started. We designed this feature to give presenters the ability to show a video to a room of people and ensure that everyone is watching the same video at the same time. This will be the same for everyone in the vicinity of the presentation board playing the video. When a public Youtube video is posted to one of the presentation boards, the video will fill the presentation board and begin playing automatically. The Echo s configured to be compatible with Youtube specifically, so some features with other streaming programs may not work properly however, so long as the video in question is formatted in WebM, there shouldn't be any problems playing your desired media. Video can be viewed from any presentation board. If you have a video that you would like to view in The Echo, you can do so by posting the video's URL in the URL bar of any presentation board.
