MetroTwit Loop: test drive our beta

Over the past few months, we’ve been running a private beta program with a small number of users to gather immediate and valuable feedback on new features and functionality changes as we develop them on a daily basis. This program was known as MetroTwit Loop.

Due to the extremely positive feedback we’ve received from our very helpful beta testers, we’re opening up the beta to everyone today.

If you’re technically adventurous, go download MetroTwit Loop today and look at all the things we’ve fixed since the last release. It can be installed side-by-side with the general MetroTwit release so if something breaks (as it might) you could always switch.

With any beta, the feedback users provide are invaluable to shape the future of the software so we have a dedicated Facebook group where anyone can report bugs and make suggestions.

We’ve squashed some nasty bugs thanks to the involvement of our beta users so we’re extremely grateful for everyone’s support and look forward to making MetroTwit the Twitter client for Windows you love even more.
