Twitter Goes to Town on Amercia 
 
 Mitt Romney launched an official iPhone app Tuesday night — only to find that it came with one glaring, humiliating oversight for his campaign. 
 
 Here's how the free app works: You take a photo, then are able to lay one of 14 "I'm With Mitt" banners over the image. The banners shout slogans such as "I'm a Mom for Mitt." Then you can post the photo directly to Facebook or Twitter, or email it to a friend. The friend then receives a message reading: “I’m with Mitt Romney in 2012. And here’s a photo showing my support. Check it out!” 
 
 The problem? One of the 14 options reads, in fact, "A Better Amercia." Yes, Amercia. A-M-E-R-C-I-A. 
 
 Just a couple hours after the app was officially announced, the Twittersphere and online peanut gallery were already having a field day with the editorial oversight. Obama supporters, media and general snarkmeisters reveled in taking photos with the glitchy app and inserting "Amercia" into some of Romney's most memorable campaign quotes. 
 
 UPDATE: Mitt Romney’s “With Mitt” iPhone app no longer includes the “Amercia” typo. 
 
 Tuesday was a big night for Romney, and the app's release was intended in part to help celebrate his likely capture of the Republican presidential nomination after the Texas primary. Zac Moffatt, Romney's digital director, told Mashable Thursday afternoon that the app was meant to be a simple way for Romney backers to show their pride as the candidate took a big symbolic step toward the White House. 
 
 “We thought this would be a fun, easy way to showcase support,” Moffatt said. Instead, the app became a platform for ridicule.

 In the app, the phrase “A Better America” is misspelled “A Better Amercia.” The misspelling was picked up and tweeted widely Tuesday night, soon spawned a hashtag-driven Twitter meme in which people imagined just what Amercia stood for and what kind of policies Romney had planned for Amercia. 
 
 The Romney campaign told The Fix that it had submitted a corrected version of the app to Apple, which has to approve the update. 
 
 Here’s a sampling of the reaction:
– There are typos, and then there are typos, and then there's the gift Mitt Romney just handed his online detractors. Romney's campaign just launched an app that was supposed to let people show their support by taking pictures, overlaying stirring messages on them, like "American Greatness" or "I'm a Mom for Mitt," and then sharing them on social media with the message, "I'm With Mitt," Mashable explains. The problem? One of the banners reads, "A BETTER AMERCIA." Yeah, there was no chance this wouldn't instantly become a meme. People who we suspect are not Romney supporters have been feverishly snapping shots of dictionaries, spelling bee participants, toilets, and more, with the "AMERCIA" banner over them, and a Tumblr has cropped up to show off the best of them. Twitter is abuzz with mockery like, "Will Mitt Romney apologize for Amercia?" and "AMERCIA TEH BUETIFLU." The campaign tells the Washington Post that it's submitted a fix for the app to Apple.
