Twitter PWA for Windows 10 receives first round of updates

Twitter for Windows 10 has been updated with a couple of new fixes and capabilities following its new PWA launch last week.

Twitter has rolled out its first round of 'updates' for its new Twitter Progressive Web App for Windows 10. Last week, Twitter became the first developer in the Microsoft Store to re-release its app as a PWA, bringing with it new features and capabilities that the old UWP app was lacking.

Unfortunately, while the PWA brought with it lots of new features and enhancements, it also brought with it a few new bugs and was missing a couple noteworthy capabilities that the older UWP app had. Thanks to the nature of PWA, however, Twitter has already rolled out a round of updates that add and improve on a few things.

First, and most notably, the app will no longer request a review every time you open it. This was one bug that affected pretty much everyone, so it's good to see it's already been fixed. Also fixed is the EU cookie dialog constantly popping up; if you dismiss that dialog, the app should remember that now.

Finally, Twitter has added the ability to paste images directly from the clipboard into a tweet. This was something many people complained was missing from the Twitter PWA, so Twitter added it back. What's impressive is all of these changes rolled out without Twitter having to submit an app update in the Microsoft Store.
