Vijay, :+1: nice work overall. A few notes after checking out the code:

• Nice to see you used PullToRefresh library
• Good to see you added ActiveAndroid annotations to the models
• Good to see you added the tweet after you posted new on compose
• Consider adding the character count for Compose Activity to limit to 140. See this event handler for more details.

We are close to a turning point in the course where you should be hitting a "critical mass" for your Android knowledge.

What's the exact error?

Nathan, I took your suggestion and saved the nested 'user' models as a part of tweet constructor. That fixed the saving issue. I also had to find a way to reset endless scroll listener after doing pull to refresh and an initial load

Great, glad you got it all working. You will be carrying over the same project for project 4 as well so you can get a sense for how to build more substantial apps.
