Twitter adds photo tagging, multiple photo upload on iPhone and Android apps

Twitter is finally taking its cues from the likes of Instagram and Facebook by adding photo tagging and multiple photo uploads to its iPhone and Android apps. You can now tag up to 10 people in any photo. A “Who’s in this photo?” can now be seen on the compose screen. You can also upload up to four photos at once.

Tagging Twitter users on your photo also helps free up some space in your tweets. You can customize privacy options and notifications regarding who can tag you in the Settings page of your Android device or iPhone d or on the web.

If you need to edit images on your presentations, Google Drives will let you edit those in Slides itself. You can now crop, add borders, and apply shape masks to the images in your Slides and Drawings presentations. The feature has been rolled out already.
