Android 2.1 Gets Official Twitter App

Looks like 2010 is slowly becoming the year of the arrival of official Twitter apps. After BlackBerry and iPhone got their own official Twitter apps, it's time for Android to get its own.

Twitter, in a latest blog post, has announced the availability of the official Twitter app for Android in the Android marketplace. According to Twitter, the app serves as a convenient way to deliver tweets straight from a user's phone while offering tight integration with other services and Android features.

As for the features, the application has a home screen widget of its own and users can "tweet" while viewing maps, scanning the phonebook, or from within any application that uses Android's QuickContact bar. Now for the bad part. This application works only on phones running Android 2.1 and later.

You might want to check the Twitter blog for more details - or simply head to the Android App Market to download and see for yourselves. We leave you with some screenshots:
