Twitter for Android and iOS Will Finally Show Entire Direct Message History

Twitter on Friday confirmed that an upcoming update for its Android and iOS apps will finally allow users to view their entire direct message history on a mobile device, whilst also saying it would make deleting DMs more consistent across devices.

The microblogging site via its Twitter Support account, said, "Over the next few weeks, we're rolling out an update that makes deleting DMs more consistent across web and mobile," adding, "We're also making an update to the Twitter iPhone and Android apps that will allow you to access your entire DM history."

The tweet clearly hinted that the microblogging service is working to make deleting of direct messages more consistent across all its interfaces, while also giving Android and iOS users access to their entire DM history.

Unfortunately, the company did not specify an exact release date for the upcoming Twitter app update for Android and iOS.

The company's help centre page for "Posting or deleting direct messages" is notifying users with a note that said, "We're restructuring back-end elements of our direct message system. As a result, users may be unable to send some URLs in direct messages. We apologize for the inconvenience."

Last year, Twitter rolled-out the feature that allowed receiving direct messages (DM) from any of the followers, eliminating the need for a follow-back in order to receive a DM.

The company had improved direct messages sync on its official clients across different platforms including Android, iPhone, iPad, Mac, twitter.com, mobile.twitter.com and TweetDeck so that when users read a Direct Message (DM) on their Android phone or iPhone, it was marked as read in their browser (Twitter.com), on desktop apps, or their tablets, and vice versa.

By the end of the year, Twitter also added private photo sharing feature for Android and iOS users, with photos only visible by recipients instead of being shared publicly on the social network.

In June, Twitter released an update for its Android app, which brought a dedicated WhatsApp share button.

Earlier this year, Twitter reported lacklustre user and usage growth for the second consecutive quarter, and its stock price was nearly halved in the last six months.
