Twitter’s new iOS app updates create a ‘more unified’ experience across iPhone & iPad

Today, Twitter has revealed that it is working on delivering a “more unified” experience across iOS devices, admitting that the experience of using the microblogging platform is still “very different” on iPhone and iPad.

The new update means the Twitter apps on these devices will be more consistent regardless of which one you’re using,” the company said in a blog posting.

“Starting today, iPad users will be able to create and see revamped quote Tweets, explore trending topics in search, visit product and place pages, and more,” the tweet said.

The company said that although they shared some code, Twitter for iPad and Twitter for iPhone were originally developed and designed separately with each app tailored to its platform.

This took a lot of extra effort to develop and Twitter for iPad features lagged behind other updates.
