iPhone native twitter app is not displaying mentions under the @connect tab

Recently my twitter stopped updating mentions under the @connect tab in the default iPhone twitter application. Initially I thought it was just me but after a quick google search I found a number of users were experiencing the same problem.

After first trying to restart and then playing with a number of settings I was unable to resolve the problem, but the following process worked.


The Fix

1. Open the Settings menu.

2. Select Twitter.

    

3. Click on the account that is causing you a problem, in my case it is "@teamau"

4. Click "Delete Account". This doesn't delete your twitter account, but just clears the account from your iPhone.

5. Click "Add Account" and re-add the account you just deleted.

Voila, your @mentions should be working again!
