Facebook for the Apple iPhone

November 30th, 2009

Facebook for the Apple iPhone is one of those apps that you can’t really do without if you are a Facebook slut and own an Apple iPhone. Fortunately for you I have the phone and I am that slut and the first time I downloaded the new face-lifted Facebook app for my iPhone I was impressed.

The icon itself is pretty recognisable and well designed. When you launch the application you are prompted for your username and password.

Once you have logged into Facebook you are presented with a neat screen of options to choose from.

If you have any notifications you will be alerted at the bottom of the screen, however from here you can pretty much access anything that you would need from Facebook on the go.

Touching the news feeds icons takes you to this easy to scroll list of updates based on what you select. In this case status updates.

The various screens of the Facebook for Apple iPhone app are incredibly well designed with an ease of use that sometimes makes this application better to use than the full browser version. :)

Next up is the profile page. From this page you can easily view and change any information you might see. You can even change or add profile images using images from the image gallery on your iPhone or images you may already have stored on Facebook.

To view a list of your friends is a breeze with a screen that is easy to navigate and use.

Overall the Facebook app for the Apple iPhone is slick. It certainly is more than one would need on the go and to stay in contact with friends. I believe Facebook have set a great benchmark with this application which is both useful and easy to use.

If you use Facebook and you own an Apple iPhone or plan to get one then this is a must have app for you and best of all it is free.

The Apple iPhone App Store offers a wide range of 3rd party apps either for free or usually for a $1. Often I have found myself tinkering with a few apps I have downloaded either out of sheer curiosity, or word of mouth. Considering I have been adding all things iPhone of late to neuromance.co.za I have decided to add this new category to neuromance.

Hope you enjoy!
