Here is the review that I've posted on the App Store, obviously it has to be 
checked first.
I purchased this program several months ago because the IOS version was 
completely accessible with voiceover. the mac version how ever has a serious 
accessibility bug. the names of posters of tweets are not read with voiceover. 
I contacted the developers and told them of the problem and they responded by 
saying they were aware of this and "an update will be coming very soon to 
address this". months later and still no fix and hardly any response to my 
queries. They gave me a refund at one stage which I was not informed of till i 
tried to update and could not because my license was cancelled. hence another 
copy had to be purchased so i could keep track and see if the one major 
accessibility bug would be fixed. The attitude of the developer is extremely 
disappointing and if your blind and looking for a twitter app for the mac? 
Steer clear of this program until they show they are serious about listening to 
the concerns of the visually impaired community.
