Developer The Iconfactory updated Twitterrific for iPhone, iPad and Mac this past weekend.

What’s new for Twitterrific?

The updates are available in Twitterrific’s iOS and macOS versions, bringing several new features. Most notably, users of the app can now finally attach a photo or video when sending direct messages, which is one of the longstanding features of Twitter’s official app.

To attach a photo/video from your Mac to a Twitter direct message, hit a new camera icon in the direct message composer to pick a media file to attach. The recipient can tap/click an attached item in a direct message to have it displayed in the media viewer.

You can, of course, also paste an image from the system clipboard using the standardCommand (⌘)-Vkeyboard shortcut. Plus, there’s now a newCommand (⌘)-Dkeyboard shortcut available in iOS/macOS apps for quickly sending a direct message to the tweet’s author.
