Look forward to trying this out! I rarely use Twitter for anything other than extreme casual use just because I'm tired of scrolling endlessly through all the noise. BTW- Like M∆RCØM∆TI$CH pointed out the Android link up above goes to the Apple App Store. You want to go here if you're on Android: https://play.google.com/store/ap...

Cool, tidy onboarding and easy to use... and works for me. This would be cool for Apple Watch, to follow the peeps i.e. tweeting the most or the ones you respect (read: reply to or retweet) the most. Any plans for that @mcuban & @jesse_stauffer ? :)

@milann For sure. We think the simplicity of Storyline makes it a great candidate for a Watch app. More on this soon. Thanks for checking out the app!

It is pretty amazing how active you are on Twitter and other sites like PH for all that you do in a day's time you really push yourself...A lot of founders could use you as a good measuring stick to set the bar high for what it takes to get on top and stay on top by pushing yourself every day... Much respect to you and this team on building a solution to a problem whose time has come... One question though...Building a product like this that is a feature on top of someone else's platform is almost always an acquisition play...Did you build this to have Twitter acquire it?

AH NO. From the App Store description: 'Once you view a tweet it will never be shown again. This prevents you from seeing duplicate content and allows you to reach "Social Media Zero"'. Social media zero isn't even a concept that'd entered my head before... I never expected to be able to reach the end of the stream. As a completionist, the idea that I might have a chance to do so will ruin me... downloading the app. Social media zero better be easy to reach in Storyline, makers.

To me, the much more interesting factor is that I can keep tapping to view the next tweet (with a focus of one at a time) rather than scrolling. Not sure if this is good or bad at this point :) I also like the idea of having an ending or "social media zero". Some problems I see: Searching on twitter is easier than scrolling all of the way down an alphabetical list to find the account I want, I don't see this as being one of your best features. Searching on twitter is pretty much the same as searching on Storyline. People with characters in front of their name are at the top of the list.

@andypeninger Andy, we appreciate you trying out the app! We decided to show tweets one at a time to help the user focus entirely on a tweet before viewing the next one. We are, however, experimenting with ways to display more content at a glance. Also, because some tweets are related to each other, we plan on implementing collections of tweets that contain related content. We have lots on the way and are excited to see how our users continue to interact with Storyline!

@andypeninger Totally agree with the sorting issue. @jesse_stauffer, i'd love to see a "sort by number of tweets" or "by number of followers" function. Also, quoted tweet URLs don't seem to be working for me. Not sure if that's a bug or a rate limit issue. In Slack there's an option on how to open Twitter links (in-app, Safari or Twitter app). Would fit perfectly here :) All in all it's a great idea and a great app. Looking forward to what the next weeks will bring👍🏻

@zedpelin Sorting and searching is definitely a priority for us at the moment. We are aware of the URL issue and will be squashing this bug in an update. I like the idea about allowing different ways to open Twitter links. Really appreciate your suggestions :)

HiHo

On a somewhat off topic but related note, my dream Twitter client would provide the following simple modified timeline --> Tweets from people I follow but only if the tweet has above 100% more favs OR retweets than the user's trailing 30-day average for those two metrics

I hope Twitter doesn't shut this down. They need to be friendly with developers because chances are people making apps like StoryLine will figure out how to make Twitter better before Twitter's product team does.
