How can I receive my "@" replies on twitter directly to my phone?

[Majio]

I get updates from twitter on my phone for direct messages and for updates but for some reason i don't get my @twitterusername messages until i log in and click on that feature. How do I get them to come to my phone so I can respond quicker?

Go to setting > devices > and on the "device updates" drop down menu choose "direct messages."

Hope I helped!

Actually the above directions will send you direct messages (private), not @ replies. Currently twitter does not support the feature to receive only @ replies. But you can request the feature here: http://twitter.zendesk.com/requests/portal/new
