Today, Twitter announced its official Twitter App for the iPad. The App has a slightly modified icon and the graphics is stunning. It is really smooth, fast and and has a brilliant user interface. Though there are many third party Twitter clients for iPad available, this App completely blows them away.

The App looks great both in portrait and in landscape with Twitter features like replies, mentions, direct messages, search and tweets arranged with icons on the left. Your tweets are placed in the center and the App has an excellent browser that pops out from the right. You could also use the right pane to view a single tweet.

The core design is that of Tweetie, a popular Twitter client that was acquired by Twitter to help design the official App. You could view user profiles, retweet, direct message users and even follow users all from the App.

The App even sports the pull to refresh feature that makes is smooth. Tweeting is easy too and you could add pictures, location and shrink a link in your tweet. You could also quickly peek into a tweet and see pictures by using the pinch to zoom feature and also use two fingers to drag on a tweet and reveal replies.
