Today’s Twitter for iOS and Android updates let you enroll in login verification and approve login requests directly from your mobile app. Now, in addition to the SMS-based login verification that we released in May, you can use login verification without relying on text messages.
Now you can enroll in login verification and approve login requests directly from your iOS or Android app.
Here’s what’s new:
To get started
After you’ve enabled login verification, you can manage login requests and access your backup codes on Twitter for iOS and Twitter for Android. For more information or if you have any questions, make sure to visit our Help Center. If you’re interested in the technical details behind the design of this feature, check out this post on our engineering blog. We’ll continue to work on authentication improvements to make it useful to more people, including those who share a single account.
Wait, there’s more
A couple of other features are in this release for iOS and Android. First, search is improving:
Specifically on iOS, this same photo gallery will appear on user profiles, so you can view all of someone’s photos in one place. Additionally, you can now manage lists within the app, making it easier to create, edit and organize your lists and subscriptions. We’ve also improved launch performance for our iOS apps.
You can download these updates from the App Store and Google Play.
