Nearly a year ago, Elon Musk-owned X announced it would begin rebuilding the Android version of its app, which had not held up well compared with its iOS counterpart. On Monday, the company shipped the refreshed app, which is now available to download.
The new Android version of X was built from scratch and promises improvements to loading, scrolling, notifications, and more, X said in its announcement.
We've completely rebuilt the Android X app from the ground up. It's faster, smoother, and more reliable than the old version in every way. We modernized the foundation so everything just feels better: scrolling, loading, notifications, you name it.pic.twitter.com/ULlSwiIlvV
