Twitter for iPhone updated to version 6, brings design changes in tow

Twitter just pushed a major update to its iOS and Android application. The update brings with it a brand new and refreshed look. Activity and Discover tabs can now be accessed by swiping and there is a fresh focus on getting access to DMs.

New design.
• Refreshed look and feel. Home, Activity and Discover now available by swiping in Timelines. Easier access to DMs.
Share photos in Direct Messages.
• Send and receive photos via DMs.
Notifications from your network.
• Choose to view replies, retweets, and favorites from only the people that you follow.
Search got even easier.
• Access tweets from people you follow and near you, directly from search results.
Safari Reading List support
• Save web articles to read later with Safari Reading List.

The Direct Messaging functionality has been beefed up a bit and now it is possible to send images through your DM panel. More interestingly, the application will let you save web articles to the Safari Reading List which means that for a lot of people, news aggregation apps will become redundant. There are new in-app notifications to show you when people send you a DM or interact with your tweet. The update is now available on iTunes and we’ll definitely recommend that you give it a download.
