FINALLY, Android has a native Facebook app


Live today, Facebook has finally updated its Android app to use native coding, rather than the slow and frustrating HTML5 web viewer of the past. Facebook claims photos, newsfeeds, and timelines will all load at least twice as fast and garbage collection optimizations means the app won't slow down over time. The downside? Still looks like crap on my Nexus 10. Pics, official changelog, and link to the app below.






What's in this version:

Keeping up with friends is faster than ever.
  • News feed and your Timeline load faster
  • Photos open with a tap so you can quickly like and comment
  • New Stories bar lets you see more stories without refreshing
