Twitter for Android updated, loses some of its UI coolness
(Twitter pre-update, left, and post-update, right)
The official Android Twitter app — cleverly named Twitter for Android — just got another updated. There’s no changelog just yet (it’ll be here, and apparently we skipped the 1.3 update), but the cool little trending topics cloud is gone, the icons have gotten less attractive, and we kinda miss the bird looking at us. We have to hope there’s something more than that in this update, and we’re not alone in our disappointment. If you spot something, sing out in the comments. Thanks @macprv and Pepito141.

Twitter for Android updated to 1.0.3
Late last night we noticed that Twitter for Android (the "official" Android Twitter app) was updated to 1.0.3 without a changelog. (Seriously? Changelogs should be mandatory in the Market listing, folks.) After some digging, I found a semi-explanatory post on Twitter (where else to best find Twitter client updates?) explaining that the new version was a patch for some bug fixes, and the client has been improved so that it now uses OAuth for signing in to Twitter. And nothing earth-shattering or magical was seen. Grab the update from the Market, if you don;t have Twitter for Android installed, you can grab it after the break. [via Twitter]

Twitter for Android updated, is ‘faster,’ gets basic functionality
Twitter for Android — the "official" Android Twitter client — just got another update (we’re at version 1.0.2 for those playing at home), and changes include the following:
- Is faster than the previous version
- Auto refresh is now added
- People search is fixed
It’s good, it’s simple, but it’s still not as good as other Twitter clients out there (pick your poison). Glad to hear it now has auto refresh. [Twitter for Android]
