X has released a fully rebuilt Android app after roughly a year of development, addressing longstanding performance gaps with its iOS counterpart. The new app is built from scratch, featuring faster loading, smoother scrolling, and more reliable notifications, according to X. Nikita Bier, the head of product, described the project as one of the company’s largest engineering efforts. Alongside the Android app, X also launched standalone apps for X Money and X Chat to offer focused features. The update is targeted at global markets where Android is dominant and aims to win back users who had been deterred by prior Android issues, though some performance improvements on older devices and Spaces support remain in progress. Additional features such as a video editor, react-with-video, cashtags, and custom timelines are expected to arrive on Android soon.
