in more than two years of working on twidroyd our main goal was to provide our users with the richest twitter experience on android and looking back at our loyal userbase and download numbers gives proof that we were on the right track. as with any app that grows in popularity and expenses, somewhere along the way one starts to evaluate opportunities to compensate for all the efforts a team has put into the product. looking at other developers who successfully integrated advertising into their products we took the plunge and went the same route, consciously about the uproar that a tool that’s being used so many times a day faces when it abides by this decision. the launch of ads didn’t lead us away from our eagerness of bringing you the best twitter app on android but we’ve learned the hard way that we should have paid more attention to the way we’ve integrated them.
to let you know that we listen to you and as we are re-evaluating our business model, twidroyd will be ad-free as of our newest release that went live on the android market earlier today.
we hope this step will be received positively and you continue to use twidroyd for your daily twitter fix. and, in case you’ve missed the news, we hope you’ll love our newest creation – the twidroyd factory.
