Carbon Twitter Client for WP7 Finally Lands on the Windows Phone Marketplace


Carbon is a Twitter client that was initially created for the operating system webOS, with the release of Windows Phone, the developers have decided to make a version for devices equipped with the Microsoft platform.

The current version on the Marketplace is v.1.1.
  • Full inline Pictures on the Timeline(needs to be enabled from settings)
  • Double Tap on tweets for quickly replying to tweets without the need to leave timelines
  • Quickline: A swiss army timeline for accessing all kinds of timelines from Lists, Retweets, Saved Searches.
  • Live Ties for every account, pinnable to the Home Screen with Mentions & Direct Messages background checks
  • Compose Tile, pinning a compose tile on the Home Screen for a speedy tweet composition
  • Search Tiles, pin a #hashtag or keywords to your home screen for quick access to a search timeline
  • Threaded Direct Messages View
  • And of course, Bit.ly Pro URL shortening, Read Later support(Instapaper & Read It Later) and a lot more…

Next Update, v.1.2, Scheduled for Feb 15th

  • We’re almost done with the next update, in v.1.1 we added new features to the timelines such as Inline Full Image Previews that slowed our timeline scrolling a bit, fret not, we smoothened it out quickly and v.1.2 will have it all fixed and buttery smooth again.
  • Trial Mode, with v.1.2 we’ll have our Trial Mode enabled so that users can try the app before buying
  • A few new features and one more new cool gesture that goes nicely with our double-tap quick reply.
  • Performance tuning and improvements and fixes
Carbon has a price tag of $1.99 and it can be found here at Windows Phone Marketplace
