We have already received the tightly integration of Twitter into iOS, with the launch of last year latest iOS 5, but still there are lot of iOS users who don’t like to use the Twitter and have a great community over the Facebook, and want something for their Facebook buddies. However, for those users now we have a new tweak in Cydia Store that will bring the Facebook integration into the iOS exactly similar to the Twitter integration into iOS.
Fusion – is a new jailbreak tweak, recently launched in Cydia Store with an ability to integrate Facebook, Foursquare, and even the dead MySpace into the default iOS composition pane, and allows you to use the pane exactly as you use for Twitter to post new tweets. Now you would be able to post new updates to Facebook, and share info on Foursquare, using the same composition pane on your iPhone / iPad. The tweak doesn’t end here; it also allows you to use the same social integration even with the Siri, you can even use Siri to compose and post messages on Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare with this new tweak.
Facebook Integration Into iOS (iPhone) Makes Possible With Fusion
One of the great things about Fusion is you don’t need to learn any new thing to use it on your device; you can reach your social circles using the old and default methods which you use for Twitter on iOS devices. You won’t have to set any new thing to make it work on your device.
We know a lot of users are desperately waiting for Apple to integrate the Facebook into iOS, but it seems that Apple is not going to give a chance to Facebook, after their little mess with the Ping and Facebook integration. However, the Fusion has just filled the space, and introduced what users want on their devices, now users won’t have to wait any more to see Apple and Facebook decisions for the iOS integration.
Fusion is available to download, and it is available to purchase from Cydia’s BigBoss repo. Fusion comes with a little price tag of $2, but we guess it is enough for this kind of deep integration of social networks on iOS.
Tweetbot, undoubtedly one of the most famous and popular Twitter client for iOS users, and we are also a very big fan of Tweetbot here on our desk. We mostly keep you updated with the latest ongoing updates and sneak peeks of App Store with our AppStore Daily posts, but for Tweetbot, we are surely going to skip the post and update you on Tweetbot’s new update. Tweetbot has been recently received a new update from its developer, and the update appears to be a fortune changing update for the Twitter client, as it comes up with a deep integration of Apple’s iCloud to make it work across the devices with one connected ID.
Tweetbot is just updated to version 2.2. The new Tweetbot 2.2 is capable of syncing user’s timelines, direct messages, and other Tweetbot settings across the different devices using the baseline of iCloud sync on iOS devices. This update is really meant for those who have numbered of iOS devices, and whenever they launch their Tweetbot device, they feel their self little messed up.
In Tweetbot 2.2 update; the iCloud integration in Tweetbot is one of the coolest additions of feature, which actually let users to sync its tweet marker across the devices using iCloud sync, means if you are using Tweetbot on an iPhone for reading a tweet, and then you choose to switch over another iPhone / iPad; iCloud sync will automatically bring the last position on the timeline on the new device where you were at your iPhone. There also many features included into Tweetbot with this new update, like the introduction of new gesture, which lets you to pinch to close images on your device screen, and allows the Tweetbot to handle iTunes link more carefully.
Twitter for iOS - No doubt that Twitter deep integration in iOS boosts the Twitter user’s base, as the iOS automatically asks million of users to join the Twitter party, and most of the iPhone users are already Twitter’s big monsters, loves to tweet every single thing of their life on Twitter. However, the last year deep integration of Twitter into iOS undoubtedly doubled the number of users on Twitter, and helped it to grow among the users to compete with other markets social network platforms. Millions of users might have joined the Twitter since they have contracted with Apple over the integration of their service into iOS.
It is also a clear vision that most of them is using the stock iOS Twitter application on their iOS devices to access over the Twitter service, while there are coupled of popular and more powerful applications is available in App Store to bring Twitter over your iPhone / iPad. It is reported that some users with default Twitter’s iOS application are facing some weird issues on their iOS devices, on which their iOS application failed to load the users own mentions, and replies from other users. In short, there is a kind of bug in Twitter iOS application that are preventing users from accessing their conversations and @ replies from Twitter buddies using the Twitter official iOS application.
The weird bug in Twitter iOS application prevents the application from loading the replies and mentions from Twitter web service, and stuck into the user’s access on Twitter. However, the issue seems to be appearing in the core of the application integration with an iOS system, as it can’t be fixed by refreshing, rebooting or force closing the application on the devices. The issue seems to be fix by pulling the application from your device, and then once again putting it back on the device. This trick will surely bring the old capabilities back to the Twitter for iOS application.
As noted by the users the issue is not appearing on other devices or applications that use the Twitter API to pull of the stream line data for you on the portable devices. It seems that something is wrong with the Twitter iOS application, which prevents the application from access the correct information.
