Invite Twitter friends for Android app

How can I invite my Twitter friends/Followers for using my Android app? For doing the same thing in Facebook I am using App Invite to notify my friends.
Is there any way to do this with Twitter Kit?

Solution

  • Twitter does not provide such an invite mechanism. You have two options:

    • POST statuses/update to create a general tweet that everyone following the user will see.
    • POST direct_messages/new to send a private message to a specific follower.

    Be careful however, because posting excessively to either will get your users and your application suspended.
