I have downloaded the FB Connect iPhone SDK and will be implementing a feature to add status updates from iMood to your Facebook account.
I will probably be implementing parts of the update tonight and tomorrow evening. This will mean that not only will you be able to update your Twitter status with your mood, but you’ll also be able to update your Facebook status.
Any comments, queries or suggestions, feel free to drop me an email at imacdev@yahoo.com
The Facebook application in the iPhone App Store has now been updated to version 2.0. This update has been awaited since the announcement on their blog on Facebook.com.
This update contains many new features and a complete UI change to make it look more like the current state of the main website.
Some of the new features include:
- Notifications
-The full News Feed
- News Feed story comments
- People search
- Friend requests
- Photo tagging
- Photo captioning
- Photo posts to your friends’ Walls
- The full Mini-Feed, now combined with The Wall
- Your entire inbox, plus the sent folder and updates tab
- Inbox search
- Message attachments
All of us iPhone Facebook App users have been paitiently waiting for the update to their App!
You will be able to download the App Update when it’s ready here.
Here is what the developers have said about when we should be expecting the update:
Thanks everyone for being patient waiting for me to finish Facebook for iPhone 2.0. The good news is, I plan to submit the update to the iPhone App Store a week from today. That doesn’t necessarily mean you will be able to download it a week from today – Apple reviews every application before making it available, and they can sometimes take up to a week. So, you may get the update as soon as next Wednesday, or as late as October 1st.
News Feed
In version 1.1, the News Feed contained only status updates and mobile photo uploads. In version 2.0 you will have the exact same News Feed experience as on the Facebook website. You will be able to see your friends’ Posted Items, new interests and relationships, photos, and all other stories that pass through News Feed. You’ll be able to comment on every story, and filter the feed by certain categories, applications, and friend lists, just like on the new Facebook.
Notifications
You’ll be able to see all of your Notifications on the Home tab, and new Notifications will arrive in real-time while the app is running. We’re preparing for the release of Apple’s new push service, which will allow us to deliver Notifications to your iPhone even when you’re not running Facebook for iPhone. I expect that to be one of the features in the next version after 2.0.
Profile Redesign
Profiles now have a tabbed design, like the new Facebook website, and a combined Wall and Mini-Feed.
Search for and Approve New Friends
This has been a popular request. You will now be able to search for people beyond your own Friends, request their friendship, and approve your own friend requests.
Inbox
In version 1.1, you can only see the first 30 messages in your Inbox. In version 2.0, you will be able to see older messages, all the way back to the beginning. You’ll also be able to search your Inbox and see your Sent folder.
