What's New in Version 7.2.2
A few minor updates to make Twitter an even better place.











Customer Reviews
Swipe Back Removed?!! Please add back!!
Wow! This version is a nice surprise. After over a year of posting suggestions in my reviews, Twitter has finally come around. Using customer feedback in this version, it is really improved. The Twitter app is back to being my main client.
Nice QOL additions added! Swipe back from link and Safari view controller were the two features I wish this app had. Now they are added! The Twitter team also made the app more fluid and polished. Everything works and looks great!
The only request I have left would be an option to disable all ads via an IAP, low monthly subscription maybe? I would gladly pay $1.99 per month to not have to see promoted tweets. As of now, I block these accounts. This is quite annoying to have to do every 8-10 tweets. Please follow the Reddit app and add a way to remove these ads.
Thanks very much for all the improvements. Much appreciated!
No longer a regular part of my life
Twitter was my one-stop shop for news, sound bites, and keeping up with what my friends & colleagues were doing. I left Facebook years ago and, since I found Twitter, I hadn't looked back...until recently.
As an entrepreneur, I'm still finding Twitter extremely beneficial in making connections with folks in my field--moreso than LinkedIn since Twitter is an open forum; I don't need to have a person confirmed as a personal connection on Twitter before corresponding with him or her--but these last updates have been a little hard to work with/around.
I'm echoing everything most everyone else on here is saying, notably, my drafts are gone and I don't like the new way the "Moments" feed is set up.
I never understand why some apps have to fix what's not broken, but I'm definitely not visiting Twitter as often as I used to.
We need an Edit option
The aesthetics look great but I just still cannot for the love of God understand why you haven't made tweets editable!? It's been years!!!! Sure tweets are supposed to be in the moment type of thing but if i forget to put a letter in a word I gotta go back & delete the whole thing and then rewrite it. Nope, not cool--update that.
