After been rumored couple of weeks ago finally the Facebook Client 1.7 for BlackBerry hits the AppWorld and now available to download. Haven’t tried this new version, however i guess still far away from what iPhone offered to their users. As someone commented on the AppWorld, “the mobile Facebook is far better, more options & more to see”. Anyway, the team has worked very hard and we do appreciate what they have done to improve it.
Below are the features highlight of the Facebook Client 1.7 for BlackBerry with some new features included:
- NEW! View your friends’ highlights like status updates, photo uploads, comments and wall posts.
- NEW! Check out your friends’ profiles with access to status updates, wall posts, friends and recently added pictures.
- NEW! Open recently added photos, entire albums, or tag photos of friends. You can even comment on pictures!
- Receive instant notifications on your BlackBerry smartphone’s home screen.
- Send/receive message or wall posts, pokes and friend requests.
- Update your status, view and comment on your friends’ status.
- Share photos from your BlackBerry smartphone with tags/comments and post to Facebook with just one click.
