Twitter terminates third-party clients access after new developer rules

Twitter updated its Developer Agreement, essentially blocking third-party clients for good. Platforms like Twitterriffic and Fenix are now practically unusable, as they no longer have API access and were shut out earlier this week.

The new rules state that it is not allowed to “create or attempt to create a substitute or similar service or product to the Twitter Applications”. Developers of such apps were simply told their platforms are now “suspended”.

Twitter is enforcing its long-standing API rules. That may result in some apps not working.— Twitter Dev (@TwitterDev) January 17, 2023…
