… has slightly changed compared to the first version. Now you can quickly browse through your directories in text mode. In a directory you got two options: ‘Thumbs of latest’ displays thumbnails of the last (newest) six pics in that directory:

That’s supposed to be very fast. As before ‘Show all thumbs’ shows thumbnails of all the pics. In any case you should set the application permissions correctly to avoid the confirmation dialogs. twibble’s version number now is 0.9.17!

twibble’s new Pic Browser

In Version 0.9.15 twibble mobile just got a fine picture browser helping you to select the right file to send to twitpic or Mobypicture. It presents thumbnails of the JPG-files in the selected directory.

After installation make sure your application permissions are set correctly. Otherwise you’ll see tons of annoying confirmation dialogs when browsing through the files. Also keep in mind that the generation of thumbnails can be slow. It’s a good idea to keep the number of pics in a directory small. In addition Version 0.9.15 fixes some encoding and scrolling problems. Due to popular demand the shortcut to save favorite tweets is back on ’7′. The twitter search is on [#] or [s]. As before [*] or [u] refreshes the current view (including search).

The latest twibble mobile 0.8.3 now runs on Blackberry devices as well. At least if you have a recent device like the 8800 or 8120. It supports all the features like twitpic integration, maps, and even GPS (if you have a fancy GPS enabled BB). Please bear with us if it’s still a bit rough around the edges. Thanks to @mcdent for the testing!

0.8.3 has some other improvements which apply to all devices: @replies and direct messages are displayed in different colors, the main menu has been better organized and should display faster. In addition to the numeric shortcuts there are some keyboard shortcuts for QWERTY keyboards:

[t] opens the tweet dialog
[r] for @reply
[d] for a direct message
space fetches new tweets

And finally due to a new twitter API extension @replies are now properly linked to the related tweet. To install point your phone browser to http://m.twibble.de and follow the instructions.
