Tweetium Changelog

What's new in Tweetium 4.3.511.0

Dec 23, 2020
  • Twitter recently broke Tweetium's ability to retrieve conversation thread details, and unfortunately this failed in an unexpected way so the expanded tweet/thread viewer is always empty. This update has a short-term mitigation which will show the selected tweet and up to 5 prior tweets in the thread, but unfortunately will not show any responses to the tweet you selected. Hopefully this is just temporary while I explore Twitter's new v2 API to see if it provides a way to restore full conversation functionality.
