Latest reviews of Meteoric app for iPhone and iPad
Excellent app! Its nice to finally see a well done status.net based app with a clean UI and all of the functionality of Twitter apps. Services like identi.ca dont get enough love so I have no problem paying $2 to support open-source and this fantastic app - well worth it!
App crashes frequently, is slow... Clearly a port of Tweetings for Status.net. Many UI elements use twitterisms, but not consistently. Apparently this is a lite version where certain features are not implemented. That is not clear in the description. Recommend waiting for more stable release or for another dev to produce a more worthy product. App description says it has themes and facebook integration. Theme claim appears to be false. FB integration doesnt work because this is a "lite" version of the app.
Works OK for text posts, and like the multiple account support, but uploading photos consistently fails. Disappointing.
