Customer Reviews on iTunes
A complete downgrade by FU EA
The inability to directly open links from the timeline, plus the inability to browse the timeline while links load make this a huge step backward from the previous versions. What is twitter thinking lately? I gave it two stars because it is at least stable and things do seem to load a bit faster, but what was once a very useful client is now basically broken. And I’m reluctant to spend money on a third-party client, as twitter seems intent on eventually locking them all out. Again, what are they thinking?
Not impressed… by Mpdrew
I was pleased with the previous version. This update took a step back in my opinion.

See who has followed, mentioned, retweeted or favourited your tweets,
See which accounts or tweets are favourited by your friends,
Google / YouTube have announced their new iPhone app. Could this be in preparation to the new iPhone 5? Rumours are that the native YouTube app on the iPhone is going to be scrapped.
