In preparation for Apple’s first wearable device, mobile developers have been busy creating all kinds of applications designed especially for the Apple Watch’s small screen.

We’re not ace photographers, but we all take photos. Most could use a little help with light and shadow. So rather than making you manually filter them, Facebook tells me it will now auto-enhance newly uploaded photos starting today on iOS and soon on Android. You’ll be able to adjust a slider to control just how enhanced you want the light, shadow, and clarity, or revert back to…
Facebook is finally getting serious about search. Today it’s challenging Google for finding answers and Twitter for checking real-time chatter with the launch of keyword search.

There’s also a new “Uploads” tab that shows all the photos you posted in one place so your friends…

Facebook hid some new location sharing feature in its 11.0 update for iOS today, despite saying “What’s New” was only reliabity and speed improvements. I dug through the app and found Facebook is trying to get more people opting into and using its new ambient proximity tool by adding a search box and invite button atop the Nearby Friends screen. Facebook may be attempting…

Facebook is taking a swing at suggesting contextual content to keep you surfing after you share. A new test on iOS surfaces related content cards including photos of restaurants you say you're at, friends who've checked in where you did, photos of friends you check in with or mention in a status, and friends who listened to a song you just posted. The cards could make News Feed feel alive.

Today Facebook begins rolling out a new opt-in feature called Nearby Friends. It lets friends see approximately how far away you are from them, and you can share your exact, on-going location with them for a limited time. While it's sure to stir privacy concerns, Nearby Friends could get people spending more time with friends in the real-world instead of online as it hits iOS and Android.
The App Store is a strange and whimsical bedfellow. It is a kingmaker, but with that come the tears of the anointed, the displaced and the never-rans. As an example of the store's fickle nature, Flappy Bird held the Free App pole position for so long that it could not handle the success, committing seppuku. Almost immediately three clones popped up to replace it, including Flying Cyrus, a Miley…
Facebook is testing out a new way to organize how you keep track of your friends on its iOS mobile app. TechCrunch reports that the social networking company has added a new feature called Highlights into version 7.0 of its app. With it, users can easily parse through things happening to their friends without having to find out about what they’re posting to the site, including Upworthy videos, cat photos, and other non-personal pieces of content....
Facebook said there were just big fixes in its 7.0 iOS update it released yesterday, but actually there's a big new feature it's testing called Highlights. Inside the People tab you'll see Highlights including friends' Life Events and people you've interacted with recently. If you're bored of News Feed and want to know what do next, Highlights could lead the way. Or you might just never use it.
Hey guys! Do you like videos automatically playing when you scroll by them! No one does! That’s why Facebook’s just introduced the feature to its official iOS app.
The age of videos that play automatically is upon us. First it was Vine, then it was Instagram, and now Facebook's getting in the mix. A new update for the company's iOS app adds the feature, which will play any and all videos automatically. Before grabbing your pitchfork to storm Facebook's headquarters over slurping all your mobile bandwidth, the feature is automatically set to work only over Wi-Fi, though can be turned off in Facebook's settings....

Typo ruin your social media masterpiece? Facebook is starting to let you edit a post’s text after you publish it. The feature comes to the web and Android in an update today, and to iOS soon.

Android users also get emotion and activity sharing, events at a glance, and photo album creation today.
There are many thousands of apps. Whatever your goal, as Apple’s erstwhile advertising campaign proclaimed, “There’s an app for that.” But some apps are simply must-haves—whether for their functionality, their interface brilliance, or just their entertainment factor. Here are ten apps your new iPhone shouldn’t be without....
Facebook is launching an iOS app update today that includes a new menu at the bottom of the app for enhanced navigation, along with design elements inspired by Apple's just released iOS 7.
Facebook lost its ability to “move fast and break things” when it switched its apps from HTML5 to native. But it’s got its mojo back. Today it announced a big iOS 7-style app redesign featuring bottom-screen “tab bar” navigation built with an advanced native mobile testing framework. Facebook knew to ditch the pull-out navigation drawer by testing different interfaces in 10 million-user batches.
Facebook’s on a mission to make mobile Pages more functional. Following a Yelp-ish redesign in April, iOS, Android, and mobile site updates coming later today add an integration with OpenTable to let you book reservations from 20,000 North American restaurants’ Facebook Pages, Rovi is also adding TV guides to Pages. Facebook is looking to grow traffic and make Pages more important to businesses.

Restaurants will need to be participating with OpenTable for the option to be visible, but Facebook's users don't need...

Perhaps you hadn't noticed, but we're in the midst of a fairly remarkable blitz of Facebook releases on mobile. The company announced Facebook Home and the HTC First and then (in a pattern that's all-too-rare) released both about a week later. However, the company isn't just focusing on Android. Today, the company is devoting some attention to iOS, with the release of Facebook 6.0. The new version has a few much-needed design tweaks, but the headline features are all about Facebook Messenger....

Select the photo you want and arrange it as desired, hit save, and you're done.

Facebook today updated its iOS app to include free user-to-user calling. The feature launched one month ago inside Facebook's standalone Messenger app, but has now been graduated to the company's primary app, which has a much larger install base. This means that the tens of millions of people who have Facebook installed on their iPhones can now make and receive calls over Wi-Fi or a cellular data connection. To make a call to another Facebook user, all you need to do is open a chat with that person,...
Following last month’s rollout of free voice calling in its standalone Messenger app, Facebook has today updated its flagship iOS application to offer the same functionality. In the version 5.5 update live now in Apple’s App Store, users in the U.S. and Canada can phone their friends directly from the right-hand sidebar within the application.

The Facebook app for iOS has gotten the ability to record voice and video right in the app, as well as Messenger’s voice messaging support and an improved Nearby tab. Voice messages originally showed up in the iOS and Android versions of Facebook’s Messenger apps, and later VoIP calling was added to those apps in the US and Canada. Now, the voice messaging capabilities have come directly to the main Facebook apps for iOS as well. Sending a message in the app now gives you the ability to record a voice...
Facebook yesterday updated its iOS app to version 5.4, giving users a few new features in what could be one of the world’s most complex and layered mobile apps. The update brings with it the ability to share voice messages, much like iOS’s Voice Memos, letting users record a cute little message and send it through the app to friends. The update also lets users record and share video from right…
In an update to its universal iOS app on Monday, Facebook joined the voice messaging feature taken from Facebook Messenger with a new in-app video recording asset to give users even more ways to keep in touch with friends.
Facebook updated its iOS app Monday, adding the ability to record and share videos from the app as well as the ability to send voice messages. Voice messaging was previously released as an update to the company’s Messenger app. Often a place for the social network to try out features with power users before releasing them to the public, it looks like voice messaging was a hit, and is now being rolled out to the masses in Facebook’s main app.
On the heels of Vine's release and growing popularity, Facebook has updated its iOS app with the ability to record and share videos in-app. The update also includes the ability to send voice messages in-app, and Facebook says it's improved the relevance of results appearing in the Nearby tab. (Facebook already updated its Android app last week with the same voice messaging functionality.) iOS users were previously able to upload video directly to Facebook from the photo roll, but the functionality is...
The iPhone, land of endless choice. First, you’ll want to grab Twitter, Kindle, Facebook, Find My iPhone, Shazam (it's still a magical thing), and Apple’s Remote app for controlling iTunes remotely. But then you get to the hard questions. Which to-do app to get? Which map alternative is worth downloading over Apple’s default? Is there a weather app that offers the perfect balance of hourly updates and animated doppler imagery? What are the best games to get to avoid the family during the inevitable...
This holiday season, you've plugged that very important hole in your life — the one between your smartphone and your computer.

The iOS App Store has an incredible number of great apps and games, but the best ones can be hard to find among the huge selection. Of course you...

Shortly after Facebook’s acquisition of photo-sharing service Instagram it released Facebook Camera — a standalone iPhone app that replicated Instagram’s trademark photo filters. Now, as reported by TechCrunch, the camera function in Facebook’s main iOS app is adding the filters as well.

Facebook released an overhauled version of its iOS app Thursday that promises to offer a better, faster, more native experience to users. Mobile is crucial to Facebook's...
Facebook just released its updated iOS app, which it says is twice as fast as before. The reason for the speed boost? Instead of serving as a container for HTML5 content, its now fully native. Among the improvements to the app is the ability to scroll faster in News Feed, access new stories and notifications without having to refresh, a nicer and easier to use photo UI, and Timeline profile pages for the iPad app. All are nice additions to an app many of us use with regularity. You can download it now...

Facebook on Thursday launched a long-awaited update to its iOS application that promises major speed improvements over its slow predecessor.

Facebook has begun rolling out its apps marketplace internationally, launching a version for UK users Friday morning. Facebook’s App Center (o…
Facebook has updated its Facebook Messenger app in the App Store with several new features. You can now see when someone is replying to a message with a live typing indicator, much like iMessage in iOS. Read receipts will also reveal when a message has been read and by whom in a group message. Location information has also been added for showing where someone was when they sent a message from their Apple or Android smartphone.
The Facebook app for iPad came a little later than we had hoped, but it’s been a welcomed addition to our favorite ways to interact with the site. The mobile…
Facebook rolled out an update this morning that adds support for the new iPad’s Retina display to its iPad application. According to the release notes in iTunes, users with the new iPad will now see “a crisp, high resolution interface.” The update (version 4.1.1) brings other bug fixes, too, as well as support for additional languages. The Retina-ready version of the app was hinted at last week, when someone spotted a teaser for the upcoming app in the iTunes App Store’s “New and Noteworthy” section. Th...
Apple has launched a countdown to its 25 billionth app downloaded from the App Store, but more is at stake than the glory of a historic download. The company is giving...
If you've been wondering how Facebook's snazzy new Timeline feature would look like on the iPhone, wonder no more. It's supah snazzy (or as snazzy as its mobile web and Android counterparts)! The latest iOS Facebook app update includes Timeline so you can catch up with your friend's entire history while on the go. Convenient?
Several days after initially appearing on Android and mobile, Facebook Timeline is now available for iOS via the 4.1 update. It also adds access to your Facebook Lists and subscriptions, neither of which were available in the major 4.0 update from earlier this fall. To see your Timeline after updating from the App Store, tap the navigation button in the top left and select your profile — you'll find your Lists accessible farther down the sidebar. Assuming you've enabled Timeline, it should show...
Having finally rolled out Timeline access to its 800 million+ users in the browser and on Android devices, Facebook has today pushed live a new update for its iPhone application,…
Facebook has released an update to its iPhone app, with version 4.1 now giving you access to its new Timeline interface. The timeline was available on iPhone before, but...
Facebook has just pushed out version 4.1 of its popular iPhone app. The update includes the ability to view the new profile Timeline, Subscribers, Subscriptions, pop-over notifications, and add people to friend lists. The app feels more responsive, and photos seem to load significantly faster. Facebook launched Timeline globally a few days ago, but initially it could only be accessed from m.facebook.com and Facebook for Android. The update will give plenty of exposure to Timeline, as Facebook for iPhon...

The iPhone is the most popular camera on Flickr, and for good reason. Not only does it take very decent photos that keep improving with each iteration of the device,…
Facebook: It looks pretty much like the same Facebook iPad app that was previewed in July which means there's a familiar (for those who use the iPad) left-hand column for simple navigation of the News Feed, Photos, Messages, Groups, Apps, Settings, Chat and more. Facebook Photos on the iPad look especially good (something Facebook has trouble with on their website) because they go full screen and can be zoomed in and swiped. Facebook games can also be played full screen and the iPad app supports AirPlay...
While some of the Verge team was a little too excited about the final release of the new iPad app for Facebook, the social networking behemoth also pushed out drastic changes to its iPhone app and mobile sites. The app, which hasn't seen a major update since version 3.0 way back in August of 2009, was built by former Facebook engineer Joe Hewitt, and proved to be a refreshing, streamlined alternative to the clutter of Facebook proper. Zuckerberg and co.'s site has continued its enormous growth in the...
So you’re getting an iPhone 4S. Fantastic. But with more than 500,000 apps in the App Store, finding the best ones is no easy task. Mashable is…
In many ways, Facebook for iPad looks the same as it does on any other device (download it here!). But it feels different. It's immersive, and visual and intuitive and takes advantage of the unique capabilities tablets provide. I've been wanting a Facebook iPad app from the moment I bought my iPad. The standard web version felt microscopic. The "touch" web version felt neutered. And running iPhone version on my iPad, was...do I really need to explain that? Basically, Facebook now feels wonderfully...
After sneak peaks and mysteriously long delays, the official Facebook app for iPad is finally here. Goodbye crappy Facebook iPad apps, goodbye non-touch friendly website and say hello to wasting more time on so-called friends! It looks pretty much like the same Facebook iPad app that was previewed in July which means there's a familiar (for those who use the iPad) left-hand column for simple navigation of the News Feed, Photos, Messages, Groups, Apps, Settings, Chat and more. Facebook Photos on the...
Facebook has updated its iPhone app with a slew of new features and privacy controls, many of which mirror recent enhancements to the website. Facebook for iPhone 3.5...
The App Store has spawned some pretty good looking applications for iOS devices; apps for iPhone and iPad are largely renowned for their simplicity and alluring design. With that said, you’d think iOS applications that have an Android sibling – from the same developer – would be just as pretty, right? Wrong. Here’s a gallery of screenshots that compares iOS apps with their Android versions and highlights some of the differences:
Sudden changes to App Store rankings for both free and paid games and applications has led to speculation that Apple has changed its App Store ranking algorithm. The App Store’s bestselling chart was previously based purely on the number of times an app was downloaded; now it seems like application usage is also taken into account when iOS apps are ranked. One of the most noticeable shifts for an application was to the official Facebook app, which jumped straight to the number 1 spot in the free chart a...
A tiny update to Facebook for iPhone, but one that delivers great power and requires great responsibility: You can now strike mortal blows and un-friend people from your phone. That's some serious business, like the suitcase that carries nuclear launch codes. But for your relationships. Less dire: Facebook Places now has map view, so you can see where people are at, rather than having to intuit their precise location in relation to yours. And check ins for events, which seems kind of terrible and also...
The official Facebook application for the iPhone has been updated today, introducing new features that allow you to view your friends’ Places check ins in map view, check into events you’re attending, and ‘unfriend’ people directly from your device. The update also makes improvements to the news feed and the notifications UI.
As has been reported quite widely over the past few hours, Apple has updated its list of the top-selling iPhone and iPad apps of all time as it creeps towards…

There's an ocean of apps out there. Whether you just got your iPhone and are feeling adrift or you're a salty old dog seeing what you might've missed, here are the absolutely essential apps. Twitter: Twitter thankfully didn't make too many changes when they gobbled up the already-great Tweetie 2 from Atebits—same clean interface, same Tweet swiping, and the same it-feels-so-good pull to refresh mechanism. Free. Facebook: The new, panel-based interface takes a little getting used to, but once you're...
Facebook has updated its Facebook iOS app about 14 hours after its major update of last night that brought Facebook Places to the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad (through a…
As expected, the latest Facebook iPhone app has been released, bringing with it the Places check-in functionality that was demo-ed yesterday. Version 3.2 of the app provides on-the-go tracking methods for friends, and new additions to photo upload. For iPhones running iOS 4, you can now upload photos and videos in the background, but available on all versions of iPhone's OS are new privacy settings for status updates, and the aforementioned Places. As we've already discussed, we've got pretty severe...
The Facebook app has gotten its iOS 4 facelift, with fast app switching and a few other goodies (Korean and Russian localizations, oh my!) making up the bulk of the improvements. There are also minor bug fixes and some higher-resolution icons. You can go ahead and pick Facebook 3.1.4 here.

While the version number is still reading 2.5, some of the screenshots on the App Store are telling a different story. Hopefully, this is an indicator that Facebook 3.0 is on its way later today.
