[MonoTouch] Twitter without UI - only code

[Jason Awbrey]

I'm guessing, but I'd say this is intentional.  If you could programatically
(and silently) access a user's Twitter account (or send an e-mail, or make a
phone call) without any user interaction you could cause all sorts of
mischief.  As far as I know, you can create and populate a MailComposer
window, but you can't actually send the mail unless the user chooses to.

You can still program directly against Twitter's API, but you would need to
ask the user for their credentials to do that

of course, I could be completely wrong about this
