Twidere is a social-network client for Twitter, Mastodon, StatusNet, and Fanfou.

The Android version is open source under the GNU General Public License version 3 or later. Enhanced features include synchronization with Dropbox and Google Drive, offline tweet scheduling through Buffer, and GIF search and sharing through GIPHY.
