TweetLanes doesn't recognize that I changed my username

Now I get "Sorry, that page does not exist" when I refresh the lane "MY TWEETS" or "FOLLOWERS" and it gets stuck "Loading..." "MY FAVORITES".

If you changed your username you will need to remove and re-add your account. If you only have one account i suggest clearing the tweetlanes data & restarting from scratch.

How annoying is that. I've got 7 Android devices...

The problem is that when you authenticate we keep your username for display & calling twitter with to get information for you. - including your profile image and other goodies. If you change your username, it's no longer valid.

The error your seeing is twitter rejecting our calls for information.

I could look at adding a change username function, but that could be seriously exploited.

Having not changed my username, i wonder how the actual twitter app, or any other twitter app will work following the username change.
