it is absolutely ridiculous that we still don't have a full functioning Facebook app. why can't we check our inbox, see friend requests, look at event invites, and UPLOAD VIDEO. can something PLEASE be done about this? I mean this is a social network phone that doesn't work with the biggest social network right now...WTF
 
True that. Facebook for android is pretty shitty. Had an iphone before and the FB app was much better, hope we had that

why not just point your browser to facebook.com, or the mobile version at m.facebook.com. you can do all that from there.

I use touch.facebook.com but when I need to see more information I just go to facebook.com. Don' wait for them to release an app for that.... ha ha ha.
 
The generic mobile version of the site is ok, but I want to get notifications, I want to get updates. This is a social networking phone. I want to be able to upload video to social network sites, like FACEBOOK. This shouldn't be that hard to accomplish. Friendstream is terrible, the facebook widget is pointless. OS intergration would be nice, like if you could upload video like you can with pictures in the gallery. Select the video and select "upload to facebook". If that's not possible, just make the app FULLY functional. Let me read my messages, friend requests, and upload pictures/video, let me get notifications. Come on it's been a little too long now. This Incredible is supposed to be a "social network device". What's the point of having it if it has the same functionality as my old LG Dare. It goes to the same mobile website and can do the same shit. It's unacceptabble.
 
well I've heard from another post on here that Apple worked CLOSELY with Facebook, and Facebook said they pretty much forced them to get Everything right...and that they will never work like that with other company's again...basically if you want an awesome app for a website, you gotta be a CONTROL freak.
 
I said it before, Google MUST work closer with the likes of Facebook, Ebay, PayPal, etc, to make killer applications that are going to drive the take-up of Android. If the general public has to choose between Android, iPhone, Blackberry, etc, then they will talk to people and at the moment the general view will be that Android apps for things like Facebook are poor compared to iPhone.

I *know* that Android is newer, etc, but Google have more money than the whole of the UK at the moment so throwing some at a couple of teams of devs/consultants to work with the "big boys" would pay off for them.

I also know that Google simply don't seem to care and would rather spend their time developing animated wallpapers and Goggles (that is simply quite pointless).
