I love this app however I have a problem with reading the replies of someone’s tweet.

I use official TweetDeck App on iOS5 but the problem exists for any other app like Twitter App, HotSuite etc. On the twitter.com website I can read replies to someone’s tweet by people who I do not follow but there is no way to read them in any of the above apps.

On the tweetdeck.com I have found this http://www.tweetdeck.com/support/iphone/#viewconversationhistory but the darker part with the history for the tweet does not show up on mines.

The only workaround I am aware of is to use mobile.twitter.com via Safari but it’s not what I want.

I cannot find a solution anywhere on the web. If any of you guys have sorted it out please post it here or email me at phfeel1@gmail.com

I think TweetDeck 2.0 is a worthy alternative to the official Twitter app.
A lot of improvements have been made by the developer team in this new version.
I’ve posted a quick comparison review (head-to-head between the 1.x version and 2.0 version) here: http://bit.ly/eAFwUy
You should check ’em out if you’re thinking of upgrading to the 2.0 version or want to look for alternatives for your current Twitter app.
TweetDeck 2.0 really worths the checking out.

Renaming columns will come to 1.0.1. Thanks for noticing all the little details. You’re the first! Though there are still more. Like swiping in user profiles. And the text in the follow slider.

I am really disappointed in this “update”. I find the UI in this version to be absolutely terrible, offering only control buttons at the top of the screen to do a simple action like reply. Plus the fact you need to open a tweet detail window to perform an action or click on a URL link. Plus, no light-colored theme, no push makes this a very disappointing “redesign”.

On the plus side, I like the swiping to change timelines/lists and the inclusion of bit.ly for longer tweets.
