You can also now use multiple accounts on Twitter for Android without ever logging out. It’s easy to switch between accounts to discover and share what’s happening in the world. Plus, we’ve updated the appearance of home screen widgets and added a bunch of other improvements and bug fixes.
From the description in the Android Market, the following changes have been added:
What’s in this version:

- 3. Updated home screen widgets.
- 4. Many other improvements and bug fixes.
