3D Motion Twitter App For Android In Action
http://www.3DMotionApps.com
3D Motion Apps releases their official twitter app for Android devices, featuring a pioneering new method of motion sensor navigation. With a spacious full-screen design, “One-Touch” Translation (Powered by Google Translate), and optimized for one-hand navigation, 3D Motion twitter incorporates a host of new design features, while still offering all of the standard options you’ve come to expect in a twitter application.
Re-Designed From the Ground Up
The first thing you’ll notice when looking at the main timeline section — no buttons! The tweets take up the whole display. To navigate up and down, simply tilt the device left or right. The more you tilt from center, the faster the scroll. As you return the phone to center, the scrolling slows and will eventually stop. Tilt the other direction and it reverses.
The most unique and innovative feature in this app is its use of the motion sensor for menu navigation. Wherever you are inside the app, by tilting the device back, the main menu is cued. Tilting left or right will scroll through the various menu options. Tilting forward will enter that section. This again removes the clutter of buttons where they are no longer needed.
When the app does make use of buttons, they are large, easy-to-tap buttons — making one-handed navigation comfortable. Oftentimes apps have such small buttons, it’s easy to accidentally click something else. The large button design makes a tactile difference to the navigation experience.
“One-Touch” Translation is another indispensable feature. Simply by tapping the translate button, it converts any tweet or profile you’re reading into your language — as well as letting you know the name of the source language. This feature is indispensible for anyone who is doing global market research, or for anyone just interested in what other people are talking about on a given subject in other parts of the world.
3D Motion Twitter is also a robust full-featured Twitter App. With 14 separate screen views, the app contains the traditional list of options: multiple accounts, geo-tagging, lists, FaceBook sharing, email a tweet, attach a Google Map link based on your GPS location, retweet, reply, follow/unfollow, add to favorites, view and edit favorites, tweet and user search, shrink URLs, and viewing of any other user’s followers, following, and tweets.
A few interesting extras of note: offline viewing (for when no connection is present), full-screen profile photo view, and a list of saved searches round out the application.
Plans for full multi-language support are in the works.
3D Motion Labs plans to integrate motion sensor navigation in their upcoming apps, including a number of Android tablet apps.
