document: Twitter Ditches QuickBar A.K.A. '' `` DickBar '' '' Twitter has decided to ditch the '' `` DickBar . '' '' The application for the iPhone and iPad is officially known as the QuickBar . It is a feature that helped users keep track of trending tweets . However , it got the '' `` DickBar '' '' label after users complained that the app obscured other tweets and was just a ploy by CEO Dick Costolo to push Promoted Tweets . It comes as no surprise that Twitter users would be upset if they feel Promoted Tweets is in fact promoted a bit too much . It 's in Costolo and co-founder and head of product development Jack Dorsey 's interest to support their advertising partners . If tweets are highlighted , that helps . Except nobody in a democracy goes for propaganda much . American users do n't like a social networking company deciding what gets featured and what does n't . Let the users make that decision by their own activity . Twitter has removed the feature from the App Store . So , are they done with the '' `` DickBar '' '' ? Not quite . The social networking company may bring the feature back - new and improved . What exactly is new and improved remains to be seen .
