Works as advertised...

I have been using Social Speaker now for over a week and it has been great. I have a long commute and the Hands-free reading of my Twitter Timeline, and Lists, using Siri works well. I've been waiting for a better Twitter text-to-audio app for some time now, and it has arrived!
compelling one, good

looking some thing similar to amazon audible and found this app and works well, but still there are lots of room for more feature. good work.
Excellent app but missing features

Incredible update! Thank you very much for the localization and pronunciation in foreign languages. Awesome work! Missing features: 1.- what about a widget to control the play/pause/skip/repeat of read tweets? 2.- is there a possibility to integrate with siri? For example: hey siri read my tweets using social speaker, or, hey siri can you read again the last tweets? Maybe I'm asking for too much but I think these features will make the app more appealing, useful and a bigger winner! Keep the good work! Congratulations, regards, @jrgn
Wonderful app; unique

Really love this app! Easy to use and wonderful features. Love being able to listen to tweets in the background while doing other things. Would love a feature where you could listen to another app while having this one running and checking for new tweets. There used to be an app that would allow you to play Spotify while reading your tweets and would fade down your music when new tweets came in.
Great way to use Twitter. Listen!

Update. My email was going to developers spam folder. Working again and a great app. Great app when it worked. Unfortunately on iPhone 7 during day hours it crashes. Oddly it still works on an iPhone 6. Both on 11.4 IOS. I think there must have been an update. Until resolved, the app is unusable. E-mailed support but no response. Hope it gets resolved as a very good app for Twitter. One of the best.
Great app still some bugs

I love this and has great potential, but sometimes I will have 300+ tweets it’s trying to read me when I have it set to only read the most recent 30 with no fast way to skip.
Invaluable tool to digest Twitter

I have found this app to be an invaluable tool in regards to keeping up to date with the latest news. I am a general contractor and have to oversee operations on many levels. With the latest news in city and state closures, Twitter seems to be the best option to have a finger on the pulse of the way people are thinking. I don’t particularly like Twitter in general, but for this I am grateful to have the platform for this. Having an app that puts it into words is so much easier than having to filter thru tweets. I love that it runs in the background as I am constantly using my devices for other things on my jobs. Having this app gives me a jump on scheduling and honestly saved me a bunch of time and money with my subcontractors. For example, I was able to find alternate housing for many of my workers before the city shutting down many hotels in the area due to Covid-19. Love the High-Quality Speech!! Keep up the good work!!
Excelente. Nunca ha sido mejor twitter.

Me siento muy contento y satisfecho con el gran soporte ofrecido por ustedes para la accesibilidad, la mayoría de fallos han sido solventados. Con lo cual los usuarios ciegos o que utilizamos voiceover tendremos una experiencia de uso muy agradable en la mayoría de sus aspectos. Gracias.
