Official Facebook app for Windows Phone gets updated, hopefully makes it better

By now you should know that we're not big Facebook users effectually here. Hey, if everyone tin critique the stupidity of Instagram, nosotros can do the aforementioned for Facebook. Regardless, we know many of you love the service and rely on it to stay in bear upon with friends, family and colleagues. So it's exciting to see the app get a nice 0.1 update to version iv.two today (last update was for seven.8 in December).

Unfortunately there is no change log with this update, equally it instead relies on the onetime update info from when the app got some Windows Telephone viii features. Too a cursory wait effectually the app did not reveal any major new features only figuring out the labyrinth like feature-set up of the globe's largest social network is never piece of cake to brainstorm with.

Feel free to grab version 4.2 of the official Facebook app here in the Windows Phone eight Store and for Windows Phone 7.x users, yous should be on v2.ix today. Note that this update is fresh off the presses, so some of you will only see 2.8 or four.1 for now. Sit tight and try again later every bit we're alee of the bend on this one today.

Anyway, please let us know in comments if the app, which gets a lot of complaints, has improved at all. Fingers crossed.

Thanks, Jorge S. and Republic of chad F., for the tip!
