Falcon Pro is a Twitter client that had been sold for about 1 dollar (about 90 yen), and the price change to 132.13 dollars (about 12,000 yen) increased by more than 100 times. On the application page of Google Play "The number of users reached the limit. Please do not purchase the application because this application can use only existing users."A petition link to Twitter that sets limits on the number of users together with a notice of being stamped is also stamped, which shows that it is not merely a price increase.


"The Falcon Pro has reached Twitter's token limit (limit of the number of users) in three months, please petition to the link destination, please accept this petition as a voice of Twitter user, raising the upper limit Please write what it says "Please.

Twitter is for developers in August 2012Revised guidelinesThen, we set the maximum number of users of Twitter client application other than Twitter's genuine app to 100,000 people. Falcon Pro that reached its maximum limit of 100,000 this time has become a condition that user authentication can not be performed even if the application can be installed. Joaquim Verges, a developer, applied for raising the limit on Twitter but it was not accepted, and as the number of users reached the upper limit, there was a problem that the pirated version increased, which caused the application to be abnormal It is thought that we solved by setting price.

In addition, since the application has been updated now, new users can be accepted and the price has returned to normal, but in petition the signature is still being recruited.
