Twitter Says Apple Mobile Software Bug Caused It to Lose Millions of Users


Twitter Inc., which posted disappointing fourth-quarter user growth, gave a surprising reason for the slowdown: Apple Inc.’s new mobile software.
The San Francisco-based company said Apple’s September rollout of iOS 8, the iPhone maker’s new mobile operating system, cost it 4 million new users for integration-related reasons. There was an “unforeseen bug in the release of iOS 8 as it related to Twitter,” Chief Executive Officer Dick Costolo said on a conference call Thursday.
