Key Points:
- X app is back on Mac, but only for newer Macs.
- You can use it like on your iPad.
X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, has brought back its app for Mac users. However, this isn’t a completely new app. Instead, it’s the iPad version of X adapted to run on macOS. While this is good news for many Mac users, there’s a catch: compatibility. The app currently only works on Macs equipped with Apple’s newer chip technology.
If your Mac meets this requirement, you can now enjoy the familiar X experience on a larger screen. You’ll be able to post, like, retweet, and engage with content just as you would on the iPad app. It’s a convenient way to access X without relying solely on the web browser.
The Mac app offers a similar interface to the iPad version, with a focus on a clean and intuitive design. You can easily navigate through your timeline, explore trending topics, and interact with other users. Additionally, the app supports features like direct messaging, notifications, and the ability to create and manage lists.
While the Mac app is a welcome addition for many users, it’s important to note that it’s still in its early stages. Some features from the web version or iOS app may be missing or not fully implemented yet. However, given that it’s based on the iPad app, you can expect a solid foundation and regular updates with new features and improvements.
For those with older Mac models, the wait for a dedicated Mac app continues. Until then, using the web version remains the only option.
