Hi r/iosapps,
I’m an indie developer building an iOS app called Chuckle for Twitter/X.
I posted here before when the app was still relatively early, and since then I’ve continued improving it based on feedback. My goal hasn’t changed: I wanted a cleaner, more customizable way to browse Twitter/X on iPhone and iPad — without ads, with better media tools, and with more control over the reading experience.
What I’ve been focusing on recently:
• AI translation
Posts can be translated using DeepL or AI models, which makes it easier to follow accounts and discussions in different languages.
• A cleaner timeline
You can hide reposts and reduce noise when browsing the home feed.
• Deep reading customization
Font size, font style, line spacing, tweet layout, themes, dark/black mode, and custom colors can all be adjusted.
• Media tools
Photos, videos, and GIFs can be saved more easily, including original media. There are also options like saving tweet media by username.
• Better video experience
Background playback, casting, gesture controls, double-tap seek, long-press 2x speed, and PiP support.
• Browsing history
You can quickly revisit posts and profiles you’ve opened before.
• Multi-account support
Useful if you switch between different Twitter/X accounts.
I know third-party Twitter/X clients are a niche category now, but I still think there’s room for a focused app built around reading, customization, and a smoother browsing experience.
Pricing transparency:
Free 7-day trial after first login
$15/year for the first year
$18/year after that
I’d really appreciate feedback from daily Twitter/X users — especially around timeline browsing, translation, media saving, and customization.
Also happy to answer any questions about the design or technical decisions behind the app.
