Twitter has updated its application for Mac to remove a secret backdoor that provided pre-release access to MacHeist members who had purchased a beta access to Tweetie 2, according to Business Insider.
The changelog for version 2.0.1 reads: - Fixed crash when blocking user from search results - Fixed crash with non-Roman input source - Fixed problems with window positioning - Fixed @mention streaming with tweets indirectly addressed to you - Spaces behavior improved - UI tweaks
It's thought that secret backdoor violated Apple developer guidelines and that is why its being removed. MacHeist members who purchased the Tweetie 2 beta access may want to stick with 2.0 for now.
