Twitter users running Tweetbot for Mac version 0.8.0 may be seeing their app timing out or refusing to launch today seemingly for no apparent reason. As it turns out, Tapbots has released version 0.8.1 of the beta release which doesn’t actually offer anything new in terms of features but perhaps as a maintenance update to replace the previous version which presumably expired today.

Version 0.8.1 has a creation date of September 26, 2012 and still does not allow existing users to add more accounts to the app, which the company is purposefully doing to prevent exhaustion of valuable user tokens. As it explains on the blog post, accounts that are removed from the app cannot be added back until the app is available from the Mac App Store.

For all intents and purposes, the app seems identical to v.0.8.0 and requires OS X 10.8.1.
