Facebook For Windows Phone 8 Gets An Update

The Facebook app on Nokia Lumia 920 got an update recently. This is a much awaited update for this application. There are many new design enhancements included. The best of all, chatting is now included within the application. The feeds are formatted to give you a comfortable and wholesome viewing experience. The images load faster than before and the comments open in a separate page such that the image does not need to load twice as it did before. The new design makes it easier to like/share/comment on posts. Changing your profile pictures has never been easier, you can now set any picture as your profile picture by checking a small check-box at the top when you are in the image view mode, however, you need to be tagged on to that picture to be able to set it as your profile picture.

A new feature allows you to randomly change images on your idle screen. You can specify the album or customize the sources (form Facebook like 'Photos of you') from where the images need to be picked up. The whole GUI looks much better than before and it is much easier to use now. There is also a feature that lets you refresh your feeds by shaking the phone. In case you wish to refresh with shaking, simply pull down the feeds page at the initial position and leave it.

This WP8 Facebook application happens to be the best version that is available currently if compared with iOS or Android. Do visit the Windows Phone Store and install this free application which indeed makes WP8 worth a shot.
