With phone sizes becoming bigger and bigger every passing day, the U.I redesign of apps has become mandatory in order complement the larger screens. With the same thought, Twitter is now said to be testing bottom navigation bar, but there is no way you can to trigger the UI yourself just yet.
The bottom navigation bar for Twitter contains the same setup as the ubiquitous top bar and in the same order. It has home, search, notifications, and messages over on the right. But it is unclear if you can swipe between the tabs like now, while some Reddit users claim that you cannot swipe between tabs like on the current implementation. This new U.I change is only live for some users on the latest beta of the Android client.
With most Android apps adopting the new bottom navigation bar for shortcut menu, it about time top trending apps also follow the same. Since the U.I is in beta testing, it should be weeks before the official rollout.
