Ok then why not just ask to post tweets on my behalf? why ask for Update your profile., Read my tweets, etc. Not letting any unknown app update my profile. Sorry.

@lbr @palakchokshi

That's right. I totally understand. The thing is... Twitter permissions aren't very precise.

I just wanted to ask for the permission to write tweets from my app, not to edit your profile. But they don't allow you to do that...

Anyway thanks for the feedback!

I thought it might be something like that. Twitter needs to fix this or developers like you will be facing the consequences of their actions. Facebook's permissions are much more granular.

Interesting... Yeah, that is pretty consistent across other platforms too. Has it always been like this? I hadn't noticed this until recently.
