Twitter for iOS gets new iPhone tweet composer, wider timelines, and notifies you when your friends join
Twitter today updated its native iOS app with a new tweet composer for the iPhone. You can download the latest update now directly from Apple’s App Store.
The biggest change in this release is the new tweet composer, available for the iPhone but not the iPad. Twitter says it makes tweeting easier thanks to the preview function, especially when it comes to sharing photos.
Next up, Twitter has widened the timeline in all parts of the app. Given how short tweets can be, the better use of horizontal space should also help save vertical space.
Last but not least, Twitter for iOS will now notify you when a friend has joined. This can be particularly useful given that Twitter will let you join the service without using your real name.
Here’s the full Twitter 5.7 for iOS changelog:
- The new Tweet composer for iPhone makes sharing photos easy and lets you preview how your Tweets will look.
- Enjoy a more beautiful design on iPhone with wider timelines in all parts of the app.
- Receive a notification when a friend has joined Twitter.
