Twitter has updated its developer terms, effectively banning third-party Twitter clients like Tweetbot and Twitterrific.
Well, it’s the Twitter app or nothing now.
Over the last week, users and developers of some popular Twitter clients like Tweetbot and Twitterrific have seen their apps break without much explanation as to why from Twitter. The sudden move and unclear communication from the company left many wondering if it was planning to ban such apps for good. Today, we have an answer., Twitter has quietly updated its developer agreement with a new clause that effectively bans third-party Twitter clients.
The “restrictions” section of Twitter’s developer agreement was updated Thursday with a clause banning “use or access the Licensed Materials to create or attempt to create a substitute or similar service or product to the Twitter Applications.” The addition is the only substantive change to the 5,000-word agreement.that it is discontinuing the app immediately, saying that it was already been pulled from the iOS and macOS App Stores.
We are sorry to say that the app’s sudden and undignified demise is due to an unannounced and undocumented policy change by an increasingly capricious Twitter – a Twitter that we no longer recognize as trustworthy nor want to work with any longer.
