Twitter eliminates video services and improves its application
It seems that for a while now Twitter has decided to get your batteries together and leave behind that stage in which any unofficial client to consult this social network had more options than the official application And lately we have witnessed a notable change in appearance in the application official on the Windows Phone platform, to a better system to find tweets or messages in the version for Android and iOS , now an improvement to the time to search for messages from a specific periodSomething that seems to transform the social network Twitter into a database where you can search for specific moments
On this occasion, the update has reached both the platform Android as iOS, sharing news although not the same version number ( 3.8.0 and 5.4, respectively). The search for tweets and people system has been improved on both platforms and it is now possible to search for a specific moment to find the information published in that period of time Something that can help a lot to find data and messages punctual
For example, if you search for “last Super Bowl”, a list appears with the messages and users most relevant published during said sporting eventAt the beginning, the most important messages appear, being able to expand this information by clicking on the option See more of this time In addition, within the list it is possible to find the option People who match the search term, if what you want is to find auser specific user you want to follow.
In addition to this, there are exclusive enhancements for each platform. Especially noteworthy is a function for iPhone that improves the user experience when access web pages from a link or Twitter link Thus, clicking on said link accesses the web page while, at the bottom of the screen the tweet or message that contained it remains visible. This makes it extremely easy to view the content of the web page and, if desired, do retweetto that message, reply to it, make it favorite or close it by swiping.
Along with this issue, Twitter for iOS has improved the feature autocomplete That help that allows you to see suggestions of usernames or topics just by typing a few few letters when performing a search. Something that facilitates searches and speeds them up remarkably.
For its part, Android has made a small improvement when it comes to update the contents of the tab Discover In such a way, now, like the rest of the tabs, allows swipe down to load new content using smooth and easy animation
But not everything is good with this update. And it is that, also there have been lossesLittle by little Twitter seems to be going closing doors to third-party services This time it's about support to video services such as Mobypicture, Vodpod and Posterous Tools that allowed you to store and share videos on TwitterWith this, this social network avoids bearing the technical problems of said tools, in addition of directly control the videos that are published on it through yFrog and Twitvid, which are the only services serial or native offered by Twitter Something that can go against users by cutting useful services, but which in turn enhances what is already offered by being able to directly control these issues.
