Twitter has finally updated its Windows 10 app, converting it from an outdated, unsupported UWP app to a shiny, new PWA app!
The UWP Twitter app for Windows 10 had more or less been left for dead. It hadn`t been updated in forever, and was missing simple changes to the Twitter service such as the increase from 180 to 240 character tweets. Today, however, Twitter has finally updated its Windows 10 app, changing it from a UWP to PWA. This is good news.
Progressive Web Apps (PWA): What they are, and what they mean for Microsoft
The new Twitter app looks identical to the mobile Twitter PWA website you can find online, except now it`s wrapped in a window that makes the app feel native. It also supports push notifications, meaning you don`t have to have the app open to see any replies to tweets. It doesn`t appear to support live tiles just yet, however.
Because it`s the PWA version of Twitter, it has all the latest changes and enhancements you can find on the Twitter service, for bet...
