Twitter for iOS Updated With In-Line Video and Image Previews, New Quick Action Buttons, and More

Twitter released a fairly nice, albeit minor, update yesterday, bringing the version up to 5.12. The update adds in-stream Twitter photo and Vine video previews, one-tap access to full-screen media content, and a new series of quick action buttons to allow you to retweet, reply to, or favorite a tweet with one tap from within your timeline.

From the release notes:

 

What’s New in Version 5.12

This update includes enhancements to Tweets in the home timeline.

Be a part of the moment.
•Tweets with Twitter photos, Vine videos, and other select content now show a preview in your home timeline. Tap the image to reveal the full screen version. Tweet a picture without text, and let the image say it all.

Joining the conversation just got easier.
•You can reply, retweet, favorite, or follow someone straight from a Tweet in your home timeline.

Note: You can switch off Tweet previews in “Settings”

The update is available immediately as a free download from the App Store.
