The folks at UberMedia, who bought Twidroyd a while back, have announce an upgrade to one of the first and most popular Twitter applications for Android. It’s not at 6.0, a major version increase, and has gotten a ton of new features in the process. Look no further than the changelog below for those goods. In short, it’s freaking awesome and you might want to update ASAP. If you don’t already have Twidroyd, give it a try and see if you like it. Find it in the Android market.

Yep. Saw this earlier this morning. Great update. I like how you can finally customize the (horribly named) UberBar. This is prob one of the best twitter apps out there for Android. There are a nut ton to choose from, but after trying MANY DIFFERENT ONES for long periods of time, this is by far my fav.
New app icon not so awesome. :p
moved to twicca after twidroyd just became too cumbersome and the whole ‘insert hashtag username’ in the right place – man, it took 6 major versions to get to that?
Hrrm. Will try it again then.
