Best Twitter apps for Windows for Twitteratis
1. Fenice for Twitter
The first app on the list is a feature-packed Twitter client for Windows. The layout of Fenice is not outstandingly intuitive, but it shows feed, notifications, messages in different timelines using columns, and utilizes the desktop layout better. This layout makes navigation easy and quick. I recommend Fenice because of the additional features like offline tweeting, interactive notifications, powerful filters to mute hashtags, users, etc. Pros
Ability to tweet when you are offline, app automatically posts your tween once you are back online. Interactive notifications to reply without opening the app. Better usage of the desktop layout. Predictive hashtag suggestions. No need to refresh to check new tweets. Can continue browsing from where you left in the last session. Top-level design customization options.
Cons
Not the cleanest looking UI. Costs around $2.29.

2. Tweeten
Tweeten is one of the best free twitter apps for Windows. It has an interesting design scheme that utilizes the desktop layout similar to Fenice. With features like the ability to schedule tweets, link shortening, advanced filters to mute hashtags and users, spell checking, etc natively inside the app make it an easy sell. Most of these features are normally found only on paid apps. Pros
A design that efficiently utilizes the desktop layout. Additional useful features like the ability to schedule tweets, link shortening, filters, spell checking, etc. Multiple account support. Option to download videos and GIFs.
Cons
Unable to edit profile and bio natively inside the app. It will redirect to the official twitter website. Can see the followers and the following number, but cannot look at the list of people following. no option to disable autoplay within the app.

3. Tweetium
Tweetium has undoubtedly the best design scheme for Twitter. Both the previous apps just changed the layout to offer multiple timelines at a time. But Tweetium offers a different layout showing tweets horizontally. This shows every image in full resolution, so you don’t need to open each tweet to get a clear view. Pros
Best Layout comparing to any other Twitter app. Full-functioning trial version for 7 days before paying for premium. Multiple windows functionality.
Cons
No extra features like Fenice, even though it’s a paid app.

4. Tweetz
Tweetz is THE app if you want to be active on Twitter at all times. Although it lacks a few features, it can be a useful secondary app. Tweetz is just a small window that stays on top of your screen irrespective of the app you are using. It shows you feed, notifications, direct messages, likes which is more than enough for a secondary app. Think of it as a ticker for twitter. Pros
Ability to change font size and dark mode. As it stays on top of every app, this will be helpful. Can assign any twitter app to it so that when you click on any tweet or profile, it will open that app for a better view.
Cons
Doesn’t support GIFs, Emojis, etc. Has few problems with trackpad gestures, lags a lot while faster scrolling.

5. TweetDeck
TweetDeck layout is similar to Fenice and Tweeten. It was an independent app when it started but later acquired by Twitter. It shows you multiple timelines for feed, notifications, explore, messages, etc and it is one of the most used Twitter clients on Windows and Mac. Pros
Fast Updates for new features.
Cons
It only has a web version, but there is a third-party app called TweetDeckr that lets you use TweetDeck by installing an app.

6. Raven
Raven makes a few little changes to the official Twitter app. For example, you get a few better things like quick actions, posting a tweet, etc. Tweeting with the official twitter app blocks the entire app, but Raven creates a way to post the tweet and browse simultaneously. It also has a better way to save drafts. Other than that, you have a few extra features like automatically unfollow people who are not following you, multiple windows support, in-app browser, etc. Pros
Uninterrupted way of tweeting. Quick actions and activities. Easy to access drafts with a single click while tweeting.
Cons
You’re stuck with the default website layout and there is no way to change it.

7. Hootsuite
Okay, not a Twitter client but even more than that. It can be used as a planner, to store drafts posts for Twitter, and to manage other social media platforms. You can see tweets, your profile, and notifications right in the app. You can also Like, Retweet, and Reply from the Hootsuite app itself. Pros
Can publish the post on multiple social media platforms at once which is the key feature of this app. Supports all major social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Linked In, and even YouTube.
Cons
Can only add 3 accounts in the free version. Can’t see the replies to tweets.
