Twitter to shut down TweetDeck Windows app on April 15

Twitter is ending support for its TweetDeck Windows app starting April 15. However users can still use the web version of TweetDeck. The micro-blogging site did not give a reason for withdrawing the app from Windows.

The micro-blogging website said that "By deprecating the Windows app and activating the TweetDeck cookie, we'll be able to enhance the overall TweetDeck experience,"; "Our main focus for TweetDeck is continuing to build a simpler, more intuitive experience for all Twitter users." TweetDeck app for Chrome and Mac stay untouched.

Twitter also announced that it is offering a “more seamless log-in experience”. Users can now automatically log into the TweetDeck Web client if they are logged into Twitter.com or analytics.twitter.com.

To easily access the web version of TweetDeck, Twitter has given instruction as to how to pin the Web version of TweetDeck to the Windows taskbar as a Chrome Web app. You'll need to open TweetDeck in Chrome browser, click Customize and control > More tools > add to taskbar.

Just a day ago Twitter updated its Windows 10 app to support Windows 10 Mobile.
