The Twitter app for iOS now has support for PUSH Notifications

During the last evening, Twitter updated its application for iDevices bringing a whole series of news, but the most important of them is definitely related to the implementation of PUSH notifications when you are mentioned with @, a feature requested by users for several months . The application is now 100% compatible with iOS 4.2, and the news is not only limited to the iPhone/iPod Touch but also to the version for the iPad tablet, so let's see what Twitter has changed to this application:

iPhone:

  • Improved display of shortened URLs
  • Correctly load reserved Twitter.com paths, such as http://twitter.com/newtwitter
  • Fix connection error caused by a device clock being set incorrectly
  • Additional retina graphics
  • Enable geotagging in your account with one tap

iPad:

  • Online media
  • Manage saved searches
  • UI improvements

I'm glad to see that Twitter is improving compatibility with its new design, or that it's improving the geotagging method, but I'd be even happier if it would solve the problems that cause most accounts to display old tweets, or those that cause many users to lost some of the Tweets. application Twitter is available for free in the AppStore.
