Facebook App Updated, Includes Deals

Posted Jan 28 2011 by Scott Webster in  with 7 Comments



The official Facebook client for Android picked up an update last night, adding support for their Deals, making for easy to access savings, free offers and special deals from nearby businesses.  Of course there are also bug fixes included in this 1.5.1 version of the app, but that’s not as awesome.  If you’re new to Android or haven’t downloaded any Facebook apps yet, this client runs best on 2.2 devices and above. Be sure to check it out!

    oh man, I really don’t like all the deals on facebook. I hope this doesn’t ruin my facebook app experience!

    No move to SD support? *sigh*

      However, it runs best on 2.2. Hopefully, they’ll figure it out before Froyo expires.

    Apps2SD is unsupported/with disadvantages for apps with widgets. It’s as simple as that.

    They should have spent the time working on a readable font. I need a magnifying glass on my N1 to read comments. At least allow me to adjust the font size!
