#1 tweet vox issues

Posted on February 2, 2012 by Melissa Roe

Hello,
I recently downloaded the tweet vox app, and while the app seemed pretty accessible, I had a few problems with the app. The first being that no matter what I did, I wasn't able to sign in with twitter. It would bring up the twitter authorize app page, and I would enter my information correctly. In most cases, twitter authorizes the app and redirects me to the appropriate page or application that I'm using. In this instance, however, as soon as I double tap the authorize app button, it takes me back to the app without connecting my twitter info to my account. I created a tweet vox account and thought maybe just connecting my twitter info to the account would be better than just signing in with twitter. Tweet vox said that my account wasn't connected with any twitter accounts, and asked me if I wanted to connect to twitter. I would say yes, and it would take me back to the authorize app page, supposedly with me signed in. I would click the authorize app button and I would be returned to the app, but I was still unsure if it would work, until I would select the twitter button so I could share my sounds to those on my twitter followers. When it asked me this time if I wanted to connect to twitter since my account wasn't connected to twitter, I said yes, again. This time, it took me to a twitter page that said the page had already been used, and that I couldn't use it again.
I tried to go to tweetvox.com on the computer, and one thing you should be aware of is it's supposedly in French. You will have to go to the english link on the page unless you want your screen reader to start reading french to you. The link is just called En, for english. So once you find the "En" link, just click on it, or hit enter... whichever method you use. I tried to look for ways to connect my account with twitter on the website but I had no luck. The whole point of tweetvox for me is to share my sounds with people on twitter, and since it's not letting me log in no matter what I try, this makes the app virtually useless. I tried uninstalling the app and re-downloading it, but still, I had the same problems. I wanted to put this comment up to see if anyone else was having this problem. If this seems to be a bug, I'll see what I can do about contacting the developer to see what solution I could try.
Thanks so much for letting me post this comment. Hope you guys have better luck with the app. Take care.
