I am a newbie in the smart-phone world. I purchased my Nokia E63 only one month back. It was only then I came to know that there are applications available to make twitter colorful and happening (don’t curse me for my ignorance). Gradually I learnt a lot of techie stuff. I am not a twitter addict but I do peep into it often. The applications that I have used till now for accessing twitter are: nimbuzz, fring, snaptu and finally Trill. Of all the aforesaid mobile twitter applications, one thing in common i. they all are “Free”!
Read about the comparison between Snaptu and Gravity and which one scores.
I remember during the honeymoon days with my new phone I asked @ParitoshBh (Twitter handle of Paritosh-Blog Owner) “which is the best twitter client ?” he shot an answer immediately “Gravity”. Ignorant me searched the web to download Gravity but was taken aback to see that Gravity comes with a price tag. After a month long hunt for free twitter client, I found Trill and oh boy it has not stopped me to thrill! Trill is fast, cute and useful FREE mobile twitter application. Trill allows you to manage your Twitter presence on the go. Things like updating your timeline, responding to friends, browsing the links, tracking tags etc is am easy task with Trill installed on your mobile phone. The interface is very attractive and easy to use. When you scroll through each of your timeline tweets the following function buttons hover around: Retweet, Reply, Profile View, DM, Link and Favorites. There are 4 different tabs namely Home, Replies, Direct Messages and Public Timeline. The only disadvantage with Trill is that you cannot edit your retweets but I think its acceptable, anyway the rich interface compensates that.
Currently Trill is only available for Nokia users (Not compatible with Touch devices i.e s60v5 as of now). You can download the latest version of Trill via OVI Store for FREE!

okay, just went through about a hundred reviews on the Ovi store and noticed two types of posting in general.
1) people unable to get the app to work as advertised, in the meantime costing them data. You guys need to shut the app down before the community gets mad with you.
2) what appears to be a lot of fake reviews saying the app is good. The linguistical characteristics of these reviews are pretty clearly indicative of tampering with the user reviews section. This is an indicator of low morals.
Nokia E63 here also and it doesn’t work: “error retrieving data” I thought mayne this is because I selected https for security on twitter via my pc? Snaptu and another program retrieve my tweets just fine.
Doesn’t work on my Nokia E63, just get error message . Pity looks a good App.
i downloaded the app from Ovi Nokia but i can’t login to Twitter every time it tries to connect it doesn’t open the phone browser as it says and after seconds it says ”it takes long time please try again later” any help please ?!
Make sure you are connected with internet and that permissions are given to Trill to open default browser.
i want to download trill for my handphone .. Free..
Thx ..
Here’s the ovi store link: http://store.ovi.com/content/49452
why it doesnt support multiple accounts? if it had then i would have used it
Thanks for the advise, yeah, I try that but still, the “connecting to twitter” animation appeared and nothing happened.. Still wouldn’t connect.. Like I said before, when I see the connection manager, the internet is on, but it didn’t downloading any byte.
Can you please get in touch with me at prashant.singh@spicelabs.in i would like to investigate this issue .
I have forwarded your query to the support department. You can expect a reply soon
Hey, I’ve downloaded this Trill and installed in 5730 XpressMusic. The problem is, I’m unable to sign in to twitter! It keeps sayin “connecting to Twitter” but didn’t connect after all.. The GPRS are on, but the data connection didn’t start. Any suggestion what am I supposed to do?
Try to re install the application. And if you have done this already then make sure you set the internet connection (which you plan to use) as default.
Abhishek ,
JAVA phone support is on our road map . I will keep you posted on the same .
Trill works on E71 . a Substantial percentage of our download & usage happens on E71. difficulty in using Trill on E71 might be a transient issue due to network connectivity . Please drop me an email on email id mentioned above if you still face problem.
I am using Java enabled phone is there any hope for me.
Use Snaptu. It’s java based app and runs twitter, facebook, etc.
Ya i do have Snaptu but its not working on my NOKIA 2330C phone , in fact no JAVA internet enabled applications are working on it except OperaMini, must be some problem with my configuration but i am unable to solve it.
I have used Snaptu previously on my SE W200i and there it worked very well.
If you are running a proxy connection then some application’s don’t work with that. In case of Airtel use Mobile Office.
Arvind,
As a member of Team Trill let me answer your question,
Trill is supported for E71. the issue mentioned on Ovi store was related to failure to connect which is an O Auth related problem that can occur due to anything from problem in GPRS to twitter downtown. we have tested it extensively in our labs and it works well. please give it a try i am sure you would like it . drop me an email at prashant.singh@spicelabs.in if problem persist.
I looked at the Ovi page nd it has many comments of this app not wrking on the claimed phones. Thn someone comes and posts a comment ‘it works on E71 alright’. seems fake comment to help the app.
neways.
Can you mention the features that aren’t working as advertised? I might be able to get some help.
