Twitter Releases Updated iPad App

Twitter has updated its official iPad client app, adding additional support for tweets with images and video embedded, as well as support to view photos, videos and links from the web full-screen within the app.

Tweets come alive in the new Twitter for iPad. Expand Tweets with a single touch to see beautiful photos, rich videos and web page summaries right in your timeline. Dive into the content with another tap to see the photo, play the video or read links from the web in fullscreen mode.

Also, both the iPad and iPhone versions of Twitter have gained a new 'Header' image for user profiles that is similar to Facebook's 'Cover Photo' and will be displayed above tweets on iPad, mobile apps, and Twitter.com.

Twitter for iPad and iPhone is available free on the App Store. [Direct Link]
