The list of Indian languages which are supported by Twitter for web and Android is getting bigger with four new languages being added to the existing two local languages which were added long time back. The languages are not available for any iOS devices like iPhone or iPad which support only Hindi.
The languages which were added today are Gujarati, Marathi, Kannada and Tamil. These four languages now join Hindi and Bengali which were added almost a year back. Now you can post in your desired language from the six Indian languages present now from Twitter website or the Twitter Android App. Unfortunately iOS only supports Hindi, so you can only write in Hindi from your iPhone or iPad.
