Twitter users on Android will find a couple of minor updates to the official Twitter app today. You can now reply to tweets in-line, making it less jarring to go to a full screen view where you can only see your message field. Replying in-line lets you see the tweet above while typing.
Another minor feature included in this update is the ability to share tweets using direct messages. Hit the sharing icon on on a tweet’s details page and you’ll see the “Direct Message” option first in the list. You can still share to other apps if you’d like.
There’s also a modified in-line conversation view where people who follow each other can see their conversation from the main feed. A conversation is denoted by a thin blue line that connects that profile pictures of those involved in a conversation. For this to work, everyone in the conversation must follow each other.
