twift [ˈtwift] (noun, social) - app that enables twifting

Twift is a twitter client with a twist - rather than showing you the current timeline, you can view the timeline at a given point in the past!

How about

✓ Watching that Idols show from yesterday and read the tweets along as if it was on TV now?
✓ Reading the tweets posted during the new iThing presentation two days ago at 14:00?
✓ Start watching a recorded show 30 minutes later - and read the tweets shifted by those 30 minutes?

Twift enables you to do all this - and on top of that you can always switch to the live feed to see what people are tweeting right now about the hashtags you entered as a filter. And of course you can retweet any tweet, reply to a tweet, drill down into conversations and follow users you like.

✮ FEATURES ✮

✓ View historical tweets (up to 6 days ago) for hashtags you define
✓ Jump to a certain time in the tweet feed (or quickly search for a time with the time slider)
✓ Let those historical tweets automatically scroll as if they were written NOW
✓ Define favorite templates for your favorite hashtags to quickly access historical tweets
✓ Monitor the live tweet feed for any hashtags - with or without autmatic scrolling
✓ Retweet tweets, reply to tweets, and mark tweets as favorites
✓ Create new tweets and reply to tweets with an intelligent hashtag chooser - choose the hashtags from a list of most frequent hashtags for your chosen filter
✓ Tweets that are answers to other tweets are marked with a conversation icon - click it to show the whole conversation
✓ Mark users locally as favorite users - any tweets written by them will be colored in gold
✓ Open up a users statistics page and follow / unfollow him easily

✮ UPGRADE ✮

The free version contains all features of Twift. However, you can only create one favorite template, and ads will be displayed on the main tweet view. Upgrading to the full version (by in-app purchase) will go ad-free and enable you to create as many favorite templates as you like.
