Twitter v1.1 for Blackberry New Feature : Adds Geotagged and Push Notification


Hey friends, great day for you, here we come some news from Twitter for Blackberry user, Twitter was did some beta testing before, and now Twitter’s new app for BlackBerry ready to launches. The new update does a decent job of catching BlackBerry users up with the rest of the mobile Twitterverse, this is great my friends, by adding options like push notifications and geotagged tweets.

So what so special about this new update??? Twitter v1.1 will be available in the BlackBerry App Store, so this the new feature of Twitter for Blackberry, according to BlackBerry:
  • Geotagged Tweets: Twitter started giving users the option to add their locations to tweets in March. Now they can also do so from their BlackBerrys. After a user enables the setting, it’s easy to switch location sharing on and off, with an icon in the top menu bar. Followers viewing geotagged tweets on BlackBerry can see a tweet’s location on a map by clicking an icon that appears in the bottom right corner.
  • Push Notifications: Twitter for iPhone got push notifications for @mentions in November. Now BlackBerry users can have them, too. Users can choose to receive notifications when they’re mentioned or only when their followers mention them.
  • #Topic Autocomplete: When users start to type a hashtag term, BlackBerry for Twitter will now help finish it previously used hashtags.
  • Chat-Style Messages: Direct Messages have been renamed “Messages” to match Twitter’s new desktop app. They’re displayed in a chat-style format, which means users will be able to see an entire conversation under the message tab. The previous version only showed messages received.
  • New Language Support: Users who tweet in Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Polish, Czech, or Thai, can now do so on their BlackBerry.
