Twitter for iOS Updates to 5.0 With Big Changes

Sure we tend to focus a little bit more on the jailbreak side of things, but if there's one official application that we have all come to know and love it would definitely have to be the Twitter application. With it's official integration coming in iOS 5, this social network has become an essential part of the experience on any iDevice. That's why it's great news to see a completely new version launching alongside iOS 6.

If you've clicked on this story, odds are you're going to know exactly what the Twitter app has been able to do for consumers. As the name implies this small install is going to give you complete access to everyone's favorite microblogging tool while you are on the go or just sitting at home with your iPad. The specially formatted experience for the touch displays makes this social networking tool more or less a must have for anyone with an Apple product.

What's great about this version in particular is that it gives users a whole mess of new ways to get their tweet on within iOS. The iPad in particular seems to have gotten special attention here with a sleeker and more intuitive GUI that makes more sense for the tablet's larger screen. You'll finally have clear and beautiful looking access to cover photos in user profiles which makes the whole experience seem a lot tighter. Additionally photostreams can also be viewed cleanly on the larger device as well. If you're getting your hashtag fix on a smaller screen however, you can expect a whole lot of other tweaks and bug fixes to make the experience you already know and love a bit more comparable to apps with similar functions. This new Twitter app then includes something that should make all you trend-setters happy.
