Twitter to bring back the beloved macOS app with the help of Apple's Project Catalyst. Here's everything you need to know.

Twitter is bringing back its Mac OS app with the help of Apple's Project Catalyst.

Twitter recently announced at the Apple WWDC event that it will be bringing back the beloved macOS Twitter app. The company will be doing this with the help of Apple's Project Catalyst from macOS 10.15 Catalina. Apple said at the WWDC 2019 that this will be their new project, which will help the developers port their iOS apps into Mac.

Twitter removed the app from the MacOS as they thought it is not feasible to maintain two separate codebases for the app. So, they started rolling out patchy updates to convince the users to make use of the browser version instead of the application.

According to a recent report by The Verge, Twitter has announced that this new app will be coming out with their new updates and it will offer features like multiple windows, the all new dark mode, keyboard shortcuts, notifications and much more.

Commenting on bringing back the Twitter app on MacOS, Apple wrote in their recent post that "We are excited that Project Catalyst will enable us to bring Twitter back to the Mac by leveraging our existing iOS codebase. We'll also be able to add native Mac features on top of our existing iPad experience while keeping our maintenance efficient as we continue to improve this shared codebase in the years to come."

The much-awaited Twitter app will be launched soon after macOS Catalina 10.15 is rolled out.
