Does each Twitter account need a separate developer account & API?

Post by Tweeter-in-Chief »

If you use 5 or 6 different accounts with this software, does each of them need a different developer account and API? For safety reasons, do people use proxies to make it look like the accounts are being used from different machines or are proxies for something else?

You do not need any developer accounts to use the program. The program automates the website.

It does NOT require API credentials
It does NOT require a developer account.

Just enter your account login details and the program will work

Thanks, I got confused because you said in the tutorial video that duplicate tweets are considered spam and can get your API banned.

Old videos, sorry about that. I thought I had removed them. If you know the URL of those videos, please let me know and I will remove them from the channel

But why remove it? It still has a lot of good information.

ok, that is still relevant. I thought the video you meant was something like "how to use API to use twitterdub" or something specifically on developer / API account access

Hey marten,

Does the twitterdub software rely on the mobile api? or is it automating the desktop browser?

Thanks for your grate work with all those bot tools

It automates the browser, but does NOT require a browser component as it is all handled by http requests / sockets
