Twitter app updated on iOS and Android

Its always a good day when one of your favorite apps gets an unexpected update! For those of you with iOS (iphone and iPad) or Android devices still using the official twitter app, here is a bit of a treat!

Here are a few of the new features available for iPhone and Android users:

• New profiles now feature header photos so you can express who you are more meaningfully on Twitter. Upload an image from your mobile device and see the same beautiful profile design on your phone, tablet or computer
• Photo streams for profiles display the images people have shared on Twitter. Whenever you see a photo stream, swipe left or right through the thumbnails or tap to view photos in fullscreen mode. Android users can also get closer to photos with pinch-to-zoom.

“Today you can download the new Twitter for iPad. We’ve rebuilt the app from the ground up to make it fast, beautiful and easy to use. Twitter for iPad brings you closer to what’s happening all over the world, and makes it easy to keep up with the news you need to read, the photos you want to see and the people you follow.”
