Facebook 3.0 for the iPhone

Facebook 3.0 for the iPhone has just been launched on the app store. It is so new that the app store page still says version 3.o, but if you “get app” it will download the 3.0 version.

The design is drastically different and includes many more features you find on the full web app. The frustrating thing with version 2.5 is most of the items on the news feed were un-clickable (meaning pressing the screen!) and was begging for a little bit more functionality. Thankfully our prayers have been answered.

The first thing you notice is the home screen has a grid of icons rather than starting with the news feed.

The first issue I came across was the fact that videos show previews but the they haven’t been converted to MP4 for the iPhone to play, so you get a very helpful alert box!

The other big additions are Events, video uploads, pages (in addition to just friends) and a much improved inbox. There are some subtle additions too, like a new icon.

Overall the app is very well put together and has some extra touches that just make it classy, even down to the way you can move icons on the home screen just like the actual iPhone home screen, as shown in the screenshot below.
