There are a number of excellent Twitter apps in the Windows 10 Store, but an alternative has been available for a wider variety of systems, specifically Tweeten for Windows 7, 8, and 10 and macOS machines. Now,the app has hit version 3.0and brings with it a few new features.
Save GIFs and Images
Simply put, Tweeten can now save GIFs as intended, as .gif files, a feature that the developer indicates isn’t available on other major Twitter clients.
GIF saving is a feature which requires a lot of things as Twitter stores GIFs as .mp4 on their servers. Therefore, when you save a GIF using Tweeten, it may take a little while for it to download — based on the GIF’s size and quality. When you download a GIF using Tweeten, you will get a dialog saying that the download has started and you can continue browsing your timeline while the GIF gets processed in the background. Quite handy, right?
Drag and Drop
Tweeten now allows images and GIFs to be dragged and dropped into the app.
Copy URLs
URLs can now be copied directly to the clipboard, including image URLs, tweet URLs, links to tweets, links to user profiles, and more.
In addition, the app has received some other changes:

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.
Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
