    Thanks a lot for bringing Hootsuite to the iPad, it’s a great release! I’m a little confused on the “import your accounts” language, though. Is it not using a true “sync” with our main Hootsuite.com account? I’ve already set up the app on my iPad, so if we add more accounts to Hootsuite.com, will I have to perform another import to get them on my iPad?

    Yes this is indeed the case.

    I like the app very much. On the iphone the app is very good and it updates itself when you open it up.
    Sadly on the ipad it doesnt work like that. The app doesnt update itself and that’s a shame, as I like to use the app on the ipad so much.
    Hope an update will be out soon.

    I’m trying to use your app for iPad, however, every time I download the app and then try logging in using the “Import” feature, the app starts and then closes out, sending me back to my iPad homepage. Any clue what’s wrong? Are any other users having this same issue.

    I signed up for Hootsuite under 1 email address, downloaded the Hootsuite for iPad app… entered a different email address, by mistake, and now cant change back to the correct email address!

    Is there a way to start over with the iPad app so that both Hootsuite’s are the same?

    additional info to #9 above…

    I have the iPhone app installed under the correct email address & it is working fine. The problem with the iPad Hootsuite app is that… I could only enter 1 account for Twitter and then it would not let me add my Facebook personal & business page feeds… I get this message: “Hootsuite Permissions Notice – Team Member limit reached for this social network”

    Not sure what to do and/or how to fix?

    I just found the “Launch Welcome Wizard” under the Settings button and re-entered correct email and it imported all my feeds correctly.

    Thanks & sorry for the 2 ‘panic’ help requests above!

    I downloaded the app, and am unable to login. On the browser app, I login using my Google account, but Hootsuite iPad won’t recognize me. How do I use this app?
