"Twitter updated its iOS and Android apps Thursday, adding new functionality particularly in the areas of Search and Discover.\nNow you can preview article summaries and photos in both Search and Discover without tapping on those stories in order to so.\nJust like on Twitter\u2019s website, the Discover tab on mobile now lets you discover popular tweets. Tapping on the \u201CView all Tweets\u201D button will bring up a stream of stories, news, and photos being shared by people in your network.\n\nSEE ALSO: Twitter 'Discover' Tab gets a Media-Heavy Makeover\n\u201CWe want Discover to be the place where you find the best of that content relevant to you, even if you don\u2019t necessarily know everyone involved,\u201D Daniel Loreto, Engineering Manager of Search and Relevance at Twitter said in a blog post Thursday. \u201CFor this new release, we've completely re-done the backend and user interface to take advantage of Twitter cards.\"\nTwitter cards allow Twitter to bring in news and photos into tweets and make them more interactive.\n\u201CSupporting Twitter cards on the backend means we can more directly improve the user experience in our native apps, too,\u201D says Loreto. \u201CAll of this adds up to fewer taps, fewer screen views and more content for you to enjoy, faster.\u201D\n\u201CWe think this set of updates delivers the most engaging Discover experience yet, and we hope you enjoy the experience as much as we've enjoyed creating it,\u201D he added.\nSearch has also been updated in the app and on the web and now shows photo and video search results at the top of the search results. Twitter has also included tailored ranking in search results, which can help you understand why a specific tweet might be important to you by showing you who favorited or retweeted it.\nTwitter\u2019s updated iOS and Android apps are available now. The company also announced Thursday that it will be adding an \"email tweet\" option to its website in the coming weeks.\nWhat do you think of Thursday\u2019s updates? Let us know your thoughts in the comments."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
