WP8 Gets Twitter Update With Live Tile Support
Even though Windows Phone always had Twitter cooked native into the OS, it was always lacking Live Tile support which forced you to go third party for extra features. It seems that everyone using Twitter on WP used a third party app. Using iOS and Android, the Twitter app has always been pretty good, and really good with the altest releases. So much that my third party app of choice has gotten shelved. Now Twitter for WP has gotten some update love in a big way with a major refresh. Kicking off things with some Live Tile support that will better keep you connected with all those customizable tiles. Now you will not have to rely on any more third party apps for your start screen to have a true Live Tile notifications.
Twitter for WP8 version 2.0.0.1 also includes:
* Integrated right into your Windows Phone with faster performance, lock screen, and custom Live Tile that show your notifications
* Direct access to your favorite profiles and lists optimizing Windows Phone "pinning" functionality
* Streamlined navigation brings you the new Home, Connect, Discover and Me tabs
* Engage with the best Twitter content available in the Discover tab, as well as Trends, browse categories, find friends, and suggestions about Who To Follow
* Enjoy your Retweets, favorites, follows, mentions and replies in the Connect tab, or filter your mentions and replies only
Head on over to the Windows Phone Store for your update and enjoy.
