Twitter apps updated for iOS, Android & Kindle Fire

Twitter has gone ahead and released updates for both its Android and iOS applications while also bringing support for the Amazon Kindle Fire.

Twitter has gone ahead and released updates for both its Android and iOS applications while also bringing support for the Amazon Kindle Fire. The Barnes and Noble Nook Tablet will get support on February 23rd. It's also now available for devices running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

The iOS application in particular is jam packed with new features including two that will be familiar to those who have used previous versions of the application.

Once updated, both Android and iOS users will be able to use a swipe on individual tweets in order to reply, retweet or favorite. This will ensure that you'll never have to leave your timeline to perform any of these actions.

iOS users will also be able to copy and paste the text found in tweets.

Now, these might sound familiar to some of you and that's because they have both been in Twitter's software before. Both are extremely useful and we're grateful that Twitter decided to bring them back.
