Simply hit l and the browser
Simply hit l and the browser will open wiht all links. If you want it to happen in the backround check the appropiate box in settings. Not sure where it is at the moment. I think under advanced.
helpful commands
Hello all. This may help with the tweet focusing issues. Like sending dm's and mentions to the wrong people. What I do is not interact with the tabs. I just use cmd and either left or right arrows to go between tabs. When I am in the one I want I use the letter j to go up and k to go down in the list of tweets or dm's in that tab. i can then either hit enter to reply or d to dm someone and that works perfectly. Hope this helps. I will also put a list of commands I got a while back here.
Spacebar - Select the oldest unread tweet in the selected tab
Enter - Reply to selected tweet
Shift + Enter - Reply to all users related to selected tweet
D - Send direct message
F - Toggle favorite status
H - Show selected user's timeline
L - Open all links in the tweet
R - Open addressed tweet in browser
T - Open tweet in browser
A - Show timeline of @user in the tweet
W - Open website of the selected user
0 - Select the latest tweet in the tab
- Preview image
G - Search for hashtags
J - Move down
K - Move up
Reply to selected tweet without focusing on the post input field (for sending reply to multiple users)
? - Reset the post input field
Command + ? - Move to next tab
Command + ? - Move to previous tab
Option + ? - Select the selected tweet in next tab
Option + ? - Select the selected tweet in previous tab
Twitter 30 second video
Hi All,
Much is being made of the new Twitter feature that allows Tweeps to record and publish short videos right from Twitter.
Does anyone know if it is possible to play these clips from within Night Owl?
Appreciate any insights.

I did not even know you could
I did not even know you could do this. I never heard wind of this from the twitter support accounts I follow. I'm still using yorufukurou from last year so I cannot take advantage. I guess I'll wait until it updates itself in the app store.
its already been updated
As the subject states, the app was updated yesterday.
re: update
Hmm. I suffered a huge data deletion, my fault, Looks like I'll check the app store and have a play when I'm ready to dl stuff again.
Update. According to the fix you don't embed videos, it will show the instagram videos but I don't think you can make them. This is instagram not twitter that has the vids.
Blessings.
deleting tweets
How do you delete a tweet in Night Owl? I can't figure that out.
Re: Deleting tweets
Simply press command backspace on the tweet you want to delete.
Podcast Not Found
Hello all. I clicked on the link for the podcast and intro about this Twitter client, but they don't seem to be there anymore. This app sounds pretty cool. I've been using Easy Chirp for Twitter on the Mac and it works great, but I think I'm going to give this app a try.
Oops? Try going to this link
Oops? Try going to this link and search for night owl. If I took it down by accident, let me know as I normally never do. Heha
Take care and be blessed to all.
Seems Pretty Good
I tried installing Night Owl last night but for whatever reason, that didn't happen. But I was successful just now, and I configured it to work with the Twitter account for my volunteer job. I like it so far. The interface is very clean and straightforward. When I have more time I will try out other stuff with it, including configuring my personal Twitter account.
one suggestiont though
The only thing I don't like about it is you cannot manually sort your accounts or tabs. Once they are created they are sorted in the order created which drives me nuts as I like things a certain way. I've emailed the dev feedback regarding this with no status on weather this can be looked in to or not.
Take care.
Well, I just tweeted the team
Well, I just tweeted the team to ask about status of the long dms and embedded RTS that are in all the clients. They have no email address anymore. In fact the last tweet from their account was 2 years ago. If you want to tweet them as well here is their site.

It's hosted by google and it looks horrible, but it works.
new update Night Owl (AKA YoruFukurou)
Hi I just went at Mac store and saw the update
Released September 30th 20015
Support for Mac XX el Capitan
update support for unlimited direct messages
fixes bugs ETC
Can someone confirm if it's update accessible?
It's still accessible but I
It's still accessible but I don't like the fact that it still does not support quoted tweets. Once again they are a year and a half behind.
It does not support quotes
It does not support quotes nor polls, but as far as I know this is the only mac twitter client that is accessible with VoiceOver. Am I right?
Does anyone know where I can
Does anyone know where I can get a guide or list of keyboard shortcuts for this app? Thank you.
