      Hi,

      I would like to use another app on my Twitter account that has several key features, such as bookmarks, moments, etc. But, I don’t know if it’s too risky or not. Can I really trust Twitter third-party apps? Is it OK to give these applications the permission they ask for?

      Hi, It is not risk free. But, if you wish to grant a third-party app access to your account, I recommend that you only do so using Twitter’s OAuth method. OAuth is a secure connection method and doesn’t require you to give your Twitter username and password to the third party. This way you reduce the risk.
