Twitter has introduced that it has updated its iOS app with a fix for a bothersome bug that might cause user’s tweets to disappear while trying to read them at the app. The problem, which affected users throughout the microblogging service, was first resolved on the Twitter Web service on November 15.
Now, iPhone and iPad users who update their Twitter app could be able to pause while scrolling to study a tweet, while it remains put on their timeline. The microblogging service revealed that new replies being added to a conversation on Twitter was the reason tweets might suddenly bounce out of view even as a user was reading it at the timeline.
“Now whilst you pause your timeline scrolling to study a Tweet, it should stay put!” the company tweeted. After the company rolled out a fix for the Web version of Twiter on November 15, the issue has now been resolved at the Twitter app for iPhone and iPad. Twitter is yet to reveal when it’d offer a fix for the disappearing tweet problem on Android smartphones and tablets.
Earlier this month, Twitter said that users might be able to pick when to see new tweets on their timeline by tapping the tweet counter bar on the top of the timeline. The fix has arrived months after the company acknowledged the issue back in September, inside the timeline stipulated by Twitter.
The service has made other noteworthy modifications to its apps, inclusive of the recent decision to stop support for Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP). The company has began phasing out support for redirecting users to AMP versions of articles on the web.
Last month, Twitter updated its Android app with the ability to change light and dark themes based on the system theme. While the app formerly allowed users to change the theme with an “automatic at sunset” choice or manually, the “use tool settings” characteristic brought on Android in October delivered the app on par with its iOS counterpart which already blanketed the equal functionality.
