Unfortunately, Tapbots have been really lagging in getting the iPad version of the app up to iOS 7 standards. The iPhone version of Tweetbot was given an iOS 7 redesign during the latter half of 2013. Well, that last part is really what is bothering me. The application has basically everything I want in a twitter application: push notifications, position and message read status sync, mute filters, and UI that just won't quit. I have long been a fan of the Tweetbot application, a full featured and powerful Twitter client for the iOS platform. Clock - Nothing to see here, as my iPad is now my primary alarm clock and the stock app works as advertised.Now that I have AT&T's new 10GB family share plan, I have plenty of data to spare even with moderate listening. Music - I replaced Groove with the stock music player as I find myself listening more and more to iTunes Radio.For quick weather data and a view into the week ahead, I am still keeping with the stock (Yahoo data) iOS 7 app. I would like to see the UI on the iPhone show weekly forecast data on the first screen as opposed to having to swipe to the left two times. I keep it installed mainly for the precipitation push notifications that tell me when it will snow or rain in the area I am located. Dark Sky ($3.99 - Universal) - While this app doesn't sit on my home screen, it is quickly accessible via Launch Center Pro on both my iPhone and iPad.I might have to boycott the Paper app if the FB developers don't get an iPad version out. I look forward to an iPad version of Paper. I like Paper so much, I have deleted the old Facebook app from the iPhone. While Paper will not replace an app like Flipboard or Zite, the UI of Paper is a refreshing change from the vertical list view of the old Facebook app. While the news categories are very basic now, there are sufficient news topics in my main feed to keep me abreast of the latest news in tech, sports, science, and politics. The controversially named "Paper" is a wonderful new Facebook experience offering views of your timeline and curated news topics hand selected by Facebook staff. Well, if your daddy is your friend on Facebook then I guess it could be. P aper - Stories From Facebook (Free - iPhone) - This isn't your daddy's Facebook app.Twitterrific($2.99 - Universal) - Now my Twitter client of choice on both the iPhone and the iPad.
