This is fantastic - the ability to tweet and interact with mentions without the endless distraction of the Twitter feed. This immediately replaced the regular Twitter app on my home screen.

This is a long-overdue addition to Twitter, and will hopefully be effective in combating the trolling that's rampant on the platform. Am definitely excited to start using this ASAP.
Whoa! Super clean looking! I wonder if Twitter is going to start decreasing the visibility off un-verified users by encouraging most people to get verified? Hard problem to solve given the real need for anonymity during events like Ferguson and the Arab Spring, but maybe there is a private way to do it that doesn't put people at risk? Verified accounts across the board would be a big step in getting rid of Twitter's troll problem.

Can someone ELI5 why this helps with trolls? Basically, if someone has a small following, their mention of you/response to your tweet doesn't surface to the top of this app? (Unlike the Twitter app, where all mentions get equal treatment)
Why not integrate Engage in Twitter? Why another product? Why the product fragmentation (Twitter, Tweetdeck and now Engage). Twitter is notoriously bad at maintaining and updating its app ecosystem so I'm not hopeful about this new app. Twitter should consolidate its core products and make it more troll/hater proof and safer for its users.

Unfortunately it doesn't solve some of the major problems in the core product, I still say the API is what's killing Twitter http://www.searlesgraphics.com/b...
