By Bla1ze on 30 Nov 2010 04:57 pm

After a year of being in beta and becoming one of the top used Twitter clients out there, the folks behind ÜberTwitter have decided it's high time to drop the beta tag from their releases. Available now, ÜberTwitter v1.0 maintains all the great features that fans have gotten used to as well adds a few final, touch ups to make the v1.0 an earned one.

Rich Facebook Posting - Optionally post your tweets directly to Facebook from your device. Pictures and location show up in your stream as rich media previews.
Bit.ly Pro - You asked and we delivered, now you can configure your own Bit.ly Pro account and track your own URL shortened links and take advantage of the advanced features that Bit.ly provides including the use of custom shortened URLs of your choosing.
Dismissible Ads - For those of you on touch screen devices with the Ad supported version, you can dismiss the ad at the bottom of the screen to give you more screen space.

If ÜberTwitter is your preffered Twitter client be sure to grab the latest update from the ÜberTwitter website today.

Any news about socialscope, when will they open the door for ordinary folks.

My favorite Twitter app on Blackberry. I've used them all, but I keep returning back to UT!

FYI: I had a little problem getting logged into Facebook on my 9700 running OS6, but eventually got it to work. I couldn't get paste working for my FB password, so I had to manually type it in.

Hmmm, Facebook integration only for posting? sad, think Im heading back to SocialScope.

demeanor76 Nov 30, 2010 at 5:30 pm

I'm happy enough with my SocialScope.

pistolpetefan23 Nov 30, 2010 at 6:08 pm

Love UberTwitter, most used app on my phone.

Ainen Nov 30, 2010 at 6:17 pm

Don't use or care about facebook, still waiting for twitpic integration like every other client seems to be able to have.

I don't use UT because I feel it's the best; I use it because it because it annoys me the least.

r0gueleader Nov 30, 2010 at 6:17 pm

Is there an absolute need for it though? Plixi works perfectly fine when I send pics to UT.

Ainen Nov 30, 2010 at 6:38 pm

It's what I've used on all my other clients, and I'd like to keep the number of sites my accounts fly about to as low as possible. UT stands as the odd client out.

I wish they would fix the kinetic scrolling (if that's what's it called) for the 9800.

iSuni Nov 30, 2010 at 6:27 pm

No Thanks.

SocialScope FTW = Fu%K The World !!!!

scook94 Nov 30, 2010 at 6:47 pm

Really disappointed with this "update", runs very poorly on my Torch. The Facebook "integration" is a con as I've always been able to post to FB from twitter using #fb. Also, I really don't like the UI, nor do I have any need for the location stuff. Sorry, but once more it's been deleted.

If you can get your hands on the socialscope app for Torch...you will love it. It runs buttery smooth. It's probably the only app on the Torch that actually runs so smooth. (i've had problems with chopiness on the torch since i got it..)

I am using a Bold with OS6. Ubertwiter was my favorite client. Link don't open in this version as well. Anyone facing a similar problem?

kidmac13 Nov 30, 2010 at 9:40 pm

If you have the link highlighted, scroll just off if(down) so it looks like nothing is highlighted, and hit the touchpad, just give you the option to select link. That works for me.

cjreedjr2 Nov 30, 2010 at 7:24 pm

yea i have os6 on my 9700 and i havent been able to open links inside of tweets.. anybody know what i can do to fix it? or is it just a flaw in os6 for ubertwitter?

r0gueleader Nov 30, 2010 at 7:34 pm

For anyone having trouble with the link, try going to ubertwitter's official twitter page and using the link they posted. It's what I did, it takes you straight to the download.

maniac2403 Dec 1, 2010 at 3:21 am

This is the link right?
http://www.ubertwitter.com/bb/download.php

Downloaded and still the same problem. I tried the other solution posted above. It works , but it sure is a huge bug. Could you point me to the link which works for u?

jvthoo Nov 30, 2010 at 9:27 pm

i tried SocialScope i didnt like it and i tried ÜberTwitter i didnt like it either i like the regular Twitter app for blackberry its nice and clean , and navigation is simple . . . thats just my opinion

HUTCH66 Nov 30, 2010 at 9:30 pm

Prior to getting SocialScope I used UberTwitter all the time and never had a problem. I would still be using it today but SocialScope is just to sweet not to use all the time. Anyone looking for a great Twitter client then by all means use Uber and you will not be dissapointed. For everyone else still waiting for SocialScope believe me, it is worth the wait! I waited for over a year to get an invite and just when I was ready to say the heck with it one of my BBM contacts had one and gave it to me so hang in there!

blue200316 Nov 30, 2010 at 10:51 pm

i love UT the best twitter client among all the clients which i used. but i really wished twitpic was there :(

xDAKx Nov 30, 2010 at 11:47 pm

I used to use UberTwitter back in the days of the original beta, however during a move away from BlackBerry there was a change in the UI, which has caused me to move away from UberTwitter altogether, I'm currently in a switch back and forth between Twitter for BlackBerry, TweetGenius and SocialScope, all of which I quite like for what they have to offer, UberTwitter deserves its credit for freeing us from the realm of TwitterBerry which I ran on my 8900.

toya07 Dec 1, 2010 at 4:14 am

It keeps freezing for a few seconds whenever I try to perform a task. Did a battery pull, but no change. Hoping it will be resolved soon. Other than that I LOVE IT! Always have.

Suffering a Twitter account validate error here - cannot post any new tweets at all.

Every time I try I get:

Error posting your Tweet! Error, unknown return code from the service = 504

Same thing happens if I try to validate my Twitter account.

Sveninho Dec 1, 2010 at 5:09 am

Is it me or does the program lag?

CaliCat Dec 1, 2010 at 5:35 am

I'm like a couple others here - have used many clients but keep returning to UberTwitter not because it's so far & away the best, but because it's the least annoying to date and fits my needs best to date. HOWEVER, it does annoy me at times in that (1) it does come to my attention at times that I do not always receive all the tweets in my timeline, and (2) UT doesn't offer the simple ability to filter out tweets by keyword or hashtag, which is badly needed.

I did get lucky enough to score a SocialScope invite and do go back & forth between UT and SS... SS does have that ability to filter that I like, but doesn't have the other customization that I like in UT such as ability to load/cache 2K tweets in timeline (sometimes I can't get to them for several hours but need to see what I've missed and want to pick up where I've left off without having to reload or scroll endlessly), and it doesn't seem to retain my place in the timeline at last tweet read.

dmann96 Dec 1, 2010 at 5:42 am

I have no idea why i bother with this app ... Looking to give it a "new" opportunity on my 9800 ... BRICK constant reboot cycle ... Thanks Uber again for the diappointment! T4BB, Seesmic, HootSuite, SocialScope, Twitter's Mobile site, Blaq, OpenBeak all for the win compared to the pile of snikey ...

winterheimhdd Dec 1, 2010 at 7:37 am

I'm getting freezes every so often but other than that, the app appears to be quite snappy even on a Curve 8520.

But features-wise, I think UT is still behind compared to apps like TweetDeck where you can have multiple views.

thecapitalr Dec 1, 2010 at 7:37 am

does anyone have the previous beta version of this as a direct download link?
i installed this version on my BB 9780 and it constantly freezes on every page for about 45 seconds.. VERY annoying!!!
