The timeline UI has improved and highlights some new features. See that sources button? Not only can you choose the public timeline, friends’ timeline, trends, and nearby tweets, but you can access multiple accounts. The client at long last supports multiple accounts. This is a must-have for those of us that tweet for both an organization and ourselves.

To reply to someone, you just highlight the tweet. The new tweet button becomes a reply button. Simple and easy. If you want more functionality, hit the now active star button and you get more options:

The inability to quickly filter for replies and direct messages was a major reason for my switching to Tweetie. This has been resolved with the filter button on the far left of the timeline default screen. Tap it, and you can filter on replies, direct messages, favorites, and so forth. I hope to see this functionality in the Twitterific desktop client soon.

I did notice that the slight lags in scrolling are still present and it’s one area in which Tweetie is still superior. Beyond that, it is a matter of taste between the two clients now that we again have feature parity. As a Mac user, I can appreciate having to make a choice based on my workflow, preference, and UI choices.
