Clatters is a simple, beautiful, and convenient iOS app to easily monitor in one place your brand name, product name or any other keyword on your favorite social networks - Twitter, Reddit, HackerNews and even comments from the iOS App Store.
pretty slick. shows a lot of promise. My initial feedback:
1. I find it a little clunky to create a different search for each channel. I'd rather enter my keyword once and then select the channels I want to search.
2. With such nice graphs, it would ideal to be able to export so I can share in a report with a colleague or client.
3. How far back can the search go? How much data and for how long will you keep it once I've entered a search the first time?
4. It would be great to be able to click on the tweet that shows up in the search and go right to that tweet. The hashtag seems clickable, but why not the actual tweet? I see you can open it with the bottom menu, but clickable would also be nice
5. Would you ever port this to a desktop version?
6. How difficult would it be to add Facebook Groups and Linkedin?
7. Can I export all the results at once vs one at a time?
All in all, it's a very nice app. Well built and snappy with a beautiful interface.
@david_jones6 Thanks a lot for taking the time to write your comment, that's really appreciated!
Now that the version 1.0 is out, I plan to regularly add new features. I have a lot ideas on my roadmap. I still need to sort the features by priority, so your comment really helps me a lot!
To answer your questions:
- Exporting the graphs are definitively on my list.
- I plan to port this application to macOS. As a matter of fact, I have a really early version already running but I need a bit more time to finalize it. Note that if you purchase Clatters Pro, the subscription will unlock the Mac version.
- For the version 1.0, I decided to only support Twitter, Reddit, HackerNews and the iOS App Store. But I plan to add support for more sources in future updates. Obviously this will depend on the APIs available. Facebook Groups and Linkedin are on my list.
- The sources like Twitter and Reddit have APIs that only return a maximum number of posts. You can find more information about these exact limitations here: https://clatters.app/faq/ . If you create a new search in Clatters, you will only see the posts for the last couple of days. But Clatters currently keeps all the posts for a month before deleting them. Also note that if you save a post in Clatters, the post will not be deleted.
I am not sure to understand your point 7 about exporting the results. At the moment I don't have an export feature. I would love to get more info about what you would like.
Thanks again for your comment and help!

Just tried it and as a user see a lot of potential here! Just I was wondering why it asks me to sign in to twitter and reddit to search those channels specially since the sign in pop up description tells this app can post on my behalf. I tries the hacker news channel which didn’t need sign in and find it very slick and smooth! All the best. Definitely Looking forward to seeing how this grows.
@hamid_ra Thanks a lot for your comment and having tested Clatters!
The search APIs from Twitter and Reddit require the user to sign in. Without a Twitter/Reddit account, Clatters would not be able to search data from these sources.
On the other hand, the search APIs from HackerNews don't require an account.
Regarding the second question, Clatters indeed asks for the write permissions on Twitter and Reddit. This is only used to allow you to quickly reply to a post from within Clatters, or like/retweet/upvote inside Clatters.
I hope to have clarify your question.
