Blackberry Tweet via iPhone Catches Attention


Folks at Canada-based mobile manufacturing company, BlackBerry, are definitely having an awkward day after the company’s official Twitter feed just received a tweet via iPhone, i.e. its top competitor, on January 13, 2015, at 11:08 am. Even though the tweet was deleted immediately after it was posted, the damage had been done.

The message posted on Tuesday afternoon promoted the new BlackBerry Classic phone and urged consumers to “keep up with the conversation” on Twitter, accompanying a lovely looking photo of the BlackBerry Classic.


Amusingly, the auto-generated message, which said sent “via Twitter for iPhone,” is not usually visible in the regular Twitter app but the users of clients like Tweetbot and Tweetdeck can see such data.
