Twitter announced on its blog that it had made changes to its apps across android, iOS and the mac and web to provide a better unified look and direct message syncing.
So now if you read a direct message on your iPhone it will show read on your android tablet or vice versa. Search has been improved too, and the iOS app has finally caught up with the android app and offers tweet composer for better new tweet operation.
However, the tablet design on android is still the phone version and looks terrible. Your tweets aren’t sync across timelines.
I did notice that the android app has had a few cosmetic tweaks and changing the notification sound now works.
So what else would you like the official twitter app to offer?
For me the biggie is muting. I have some folks I’m following that I don’t want to see all their tweets, but only occasionally. I can mute them when I don’t want to see them. Also the ability to see photos inline. TweetDeck, which Twitter owns, does all that and more on the desktop. So why can’t they do in official mobile apps?
