Following its acquisition of iPhone client Tweetie a month earlier, Twitter announced on Wednesday that it has now added its iPhone and iPod touch application to iTunes Store of Apple.

Informing about this, the co-founder of Twitter Biz Stone posted in a blog that Twitter for iPhone will be made available free of cost in the stores.

Earlier the procedure required purchasing Tweetie, in the store and was priced at $2.99. But users often they did not find much of their use.

Stone added that as there was a scope of improvement, the facility has now been made available for free the iTunes App Store.

Initially, Twitter bought Tweetie from Atebits in April and according to Twitter’s Co-founder Evan Williams this deal desired to enhance the Twitter options offered in the App Store.

It was also informed that to access the application it is not necessary that users need a Twitter account.

The main aim of the apps is “discovery and consumption of interesting, relevant information” said Stone. He further added that new users do not have to visit the Twitter website to create new accounts as “quick and easy signup exists within the application”.

The blog also reads that things that will be approachable through immediate download involve browsing trends, searching for popular users, checking public tweets geographically around and reading Top Tweets.
