[Q] Twitter App - scrolling poor ?

---

Installed the official Twitter App on the HD7. Other have raved about this but I find the scrolling of the Timeline very jerky on the HD7. Do others experience this ?

I've found that on Seesmic, not smooth and quite distracting. Doesn't happen in the rest of the phone.

It's known that Seesmic isn't working fluidly at the moment - hoping for an update on that.

As for twitter, it's occassionally jerky, but a fair few seem to be. I'm hoping this is a case of 1.0 of the apps we're seeing and 1.1 is going to show some better optimization and some LIVE tiles.

And god damn it, I actually want to see vector-like tiles which match the metro theme or if not vector, at least fit in with the phone style. at the moment, some of them are terrible. Even if it's the bird tweeting on the twitter tile or something...

oh, and they need to be transparent so if I have a red theme, the tile matches......seems all tiles being made are for the default blue!

It looks like quite a few of the developers don't even have a WP7 device yet, or only recently got one, so most of their testing has been in the emulator and not on a real device. As more handsets become generally available I think we'll see better performance.

And yeah I wish they would be consistent with their tile design! Folks, this is not an iPhone, we have a design scheme here called Metro!

Watching the Twitter app demo on PDC10 tonight and they are using a Samsung Focus. It shows none of the jerky scrolling on the HD7. Maybe this is a device issue ?

Or a later revision from Twitter?

9 times out of 10 it's fine, it's occasional.

Possibly. And maybe I'm obsessing. But scrolling is silky smooth on the iPhone 4. It's not occasional though.
