Twitter released a major update for its Windows Phone client in February, but it lacked the new image filters that had been recently introduced to iOS and Android. Twitter is updating its Windows Phone app today to add these filters in alongside some additional improvements. The updated app now includes Lens app integration, meaning you can Tweet pictures directly from the Windows Phone camera, and Twitter is officially supporting Vine playback directly within tweets.

Other improvements include a refresh lists on-demand option, and the ability to save tweeted photos to the Photos app on Windows Phone. The updated camera support includes 8 filters in total, with an updated UI for the tweet composition window. All together, it puts the Windows Phone Twitter client closer to feature parity with iOS and Android and Windows Phone owners will be encouraged to see a big name regularly updating its application.
