Install the new Yammer Desktop app in Microsoft Edge See instructions below for how to install this from various modern browsers. You can pin and launch the app from your computer’s home screen or task bar, and you can opt in to receive notifications for relevant announcements and messages from Yammer.Įven though the experience is similar to a standalone desktop app, the PWA version of Yammer is still connected to the browser it was downloaded from. After you install the web version of Yammer as a progressive web app, it will work like any stand-alone desktop experience.
If you don't mind scrolling you see more than with other Twitter apps full screen and Tweetro is definitely the best Twitter app to keep snapped into a side window so you can glance at your choice of tweets, mentions, messages, favourites or lists - and the conversation view when you reply fits neatly too.You can now install the web version of Yammer as a progressive web app (PWA) in Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, or Mozilla Firefox. TweetroĪlso worth trying out, Tweetro has a comprehensive interface that sprawls across the screen to fit in your timeline, photos and the lists and searches you add (mentions, messages and favourites open in their own panes), with slightly confusing positioning but buttons like Reply and Retweet. That makes the colourful MetroTwit our favourite app for running full screen although you can only see two columns on screen at once, it has a big, clear bar for writing your tweets in, plus previews of weblinks open in a nice large pane. Gleek has handy options like adding a hashtag to all your posts and choosing how to mark replies (RT or via or just quotes) and the tile view is great for photos but it's a little odd to see the same tweets in a column and as tiles. The fixed ad at the top of the timline is badly placed, especially in snapped view. Rowi doesn't have a live tile and its black and green interface only fits in one column of tweets and one of photos, leaving lots of space for seeing one tweet in a large font, with its replies. MetroTwitĮven without an official app, there are several good Twitter clients. The design is friendly and fun rather than sleek and stylish but this is like the People app on steroids. If you want to see updates from just one service, pinch to semantic zoom out and you get tiles to pick from. FlipToastįlipToast lets you see updates from Facebook, Twitter, Linked In and Instagram in the same app you can see the most updates, notifications, photos, messages, birthdays and your first twenty or so friends as you scroll across the screen or tap each pane to get a longer list of each of those.
