Windows update roundup: Aeries for Twitter
Today we bring you another edition of our update rounds section, to keep you abreast of the Windows Phone applications that have received important updates during the last few days. On this occasion, the apps that offer us relevant news are Aeries for Twitter, Facebook Beta and Movie Creator Let's see what these are.
Aeries for Twitter
One of the best unofficial Twitter clients that there is in the store is updated reaching its version 1.2.7, and incorporating lots of news. Among the most notable are:
- Big improvements in performance and battery consumption
- Fixed errors when using gestures for tweets, and certain interface elements not being properly hidden or displayed.
- Memory consumption is reduced by up to 60% (in the last few days I have been using Aeries on a Lumia 520 and the difference with the update is very noticeable)
- "The view of who retweeted a tweet now always shows up-to-date information"
- Improvements in the design of the interface and live tiles
- Instapaper Support
- Support for more font sizes
- You can choose your own style to quote tweets
There are also many other smaller changes. To force the update we can go to the Aeries page in the Windows Phone Store.
Facebook Beta
The experimental version of the official Facebook client is also updated, but with smaller changes. Specifically, it offers better use of system resources (battery and memory), and there are also improvements in syncing events and contacts with Windows Phone ( link in the Windows Phone Store).
Most likely stable app soon>"
Movie Creator Beta
Here's an update that benefits both Windows Phone and Windows 8.1 users This is the Beta edition of the editor Microsoft Video, Movie Creator, which adds OneDrive integration, allowing you to add photos and videos from there, and also support for 4K video.
In addition, you now have the option to choose the frames per second of the exported videos, and you can adjust the fonts, size and position of the titles and texts added to the video (link on Windows Phone Store, and in the Windows Store).
As always, these updates should install automatically in case we have the apps on our phone, but if we're really impatient we can force the process by going to the app's page in the Windows Phone Store.
