Twitter 5.28.0
The intuitive GUI that you've gotten used to
Twitter app has the same easy-to-use interface as the desktop version, but with no additional themes. You must register with an account and browse through various users that you'd like to follow. Upon signing up, you can either import friends from your address book or from other accounts on similar websites.
There's also a section with trending posts and the most popular users. Tweets must be 140-character long, as to allow essential information to travel fast. You can send replies, retweet posts, favorite them or share them on other social networking sites.
Find people on one of the most popular social networking site out there
Another great thing about Twitter is that it lets you get in touch with various people from all over the world. There's a section with suggested users, based on your preferences or popular ones. They're all divided into categories, like fashion, sports, music etc. You can also search through photos posted by users, view their list of favorites and followers, or suggestions of similar users.
Post tweets instantly
Since it's a phone application, the main advantage must be speed. Twitter lets you post messages instantly, with the touch of a button. You can also adjust font size of tweets, sound effects, image previews and even share your location. Notifications can be set for whenever you receive a tweet, you can set your phone to vibrate or choose a ringtone.
Twitter app also offers enhanced security, but you need to associate your phone with an account in order to do so. However, there are a few privacy settings that you could use, like the option to display tweets only to followers, who will also be the only ones to tag you in photos, or you can set the app to filter Tweets.
