Twitter for BlackBerry Gets Updated to 4.0.0.17

BlackBerry has just pushed out an update for their very popular Twitter application. The new update is more or less for maintenance and fixes bugs that popped up on the previous release. It’s really great to see that BlackBerry still hasn’t forgotten about the users who aren’t on BlackBerry 10 even though there have been a lot of push and focus on the new BlackBerry 10 platform.

The update is only available for BlackBerry Device Software 5.0 and up, and not for BlackBerry 10.

Change Log:

• Bug fixes
• SSL enabled by default for all communications

The latest version provides you an enhanced navigation experience, with a familiar look.

Features:

• Updated navigation bar (home/connect/discover/search/me)
• New Tabs:
  • Connect Tab
    • See all of your interactions – mentions, replies, who retweeted, favorited and followed you.
  • Discover Tab
    • Who to follow
    • Categories – discover more users by browsing categories
    • Trends
  • Me Tab
    • Messages and lists now accessible under Me tab.

Twitter 4.0 is for BlackBerry Device Software 5.0 or later.

Twitter 2.0 is available for BlackBerry Device Software 4.6 or later.

Twitter v1.1 is available for BlackBerry Device Software 4.5

The update is currently being rolled out, so expect the update to show up on BlackBerry World.  If the update doesn’t show up yet on your BlackBerry, try clearing the BlackBerry World cache.
