Twitter for Android gets easier to navigate with new design and swipe gestures

The official Twitter app for Android has received a bit of a visual refresh that should make navigating the app easier overall. Currently rolling out as part of the app's latest update, the refresh sees a new tab bar at the top of the app that lets you swipe between sections. There's also a new slide-out navigation menu and more.

Here's the full skinny on what's new, from Twitter:

• Tab bar at the top of the screen with swipe functionality so you can quickly move between your Home timeline, Notifications, Direct Messages, and more.
• Navigation menu that slides out from the side for access to your profile, Highlights, lists, the Connect tab, and settings.
• New floating action button so you can always easily send a Tweet.

As Twitter notes, the update is currently rolling out to everyone, and you should be able to snag it on Google Play now.
