## What it is
NeoFreeBird is a modified Twitter/X app (IPA) for iOS/iPadOS that reverts the X rebranding to the classic bird branding and bundles an updated BHTwitter fork. It adds quality-of-life features such as ad blocking, free Twitter Blue features, themes, and restored Tweet source labels.

## Use cases
- install a modified Twitter app on iPhone without jailbreak
- block ads in the Twitter iOS app
- get Twitter Blue features like Undo Tweet for free
- restore the old Twitter bird branding instead of X
- customize the Twitter app with themes and app icons
- see what client people tweet from with source labels
- sideload a tweaked Twitter IPA via AltStore or SideStore

## When to choose
- you want a feature-rich modified Twitter client on iOS/iPadOS
- you prefer the pre-X Twitter branding and UI
- you want ad blocking and Blue features without a subscription
- you sideload apps with AltStore, SideStore, or Feather

## When to avoid
- you need a guaranteed-working client — Twitter/X attestation may block sign-in or tweeting on modified apps
- you want an official, supported app or enterprise use
- you are on Android or desktop platforms
- you need a license-clear project — it has no license and redistributes a proprietary app
