iOS 6 brings deep Facebook integration
0. phoneArena posted on 11 Jun 2012, 13:55
As it was predicted, Facebook integration is officially a feature of the new iOS 6, and Apple is surely sparing no effort to convince us how good the experience is. In fact, Apple claims that by interweaving the popular social network with its platform, iOS 6 will deliver "the best Facebook experience on a mobile device." Bold claim indeed...

OH Yes I can.. Apple is evil and tries to take credit for doing things others already have done. Like "Gee whiz we now have a sort of Facebook integration, that's still not quite as good or deep as WindowsPhone has since its inception or Android has now.. aren't we great and special.. " eh whatever.

Not really proper integration. Was hoping to see Facebook albums in the photos app... Maybe in 3012 when all other OS's are using holograms...

i know windows phone has this. i wounder if facebook integration in limited on other os because of the money microsoft through facebook way couple years ago like 300 million i think.

I doubt that because Andriod has all those features too, I can't understand why iOS is soo outdated when it comes to simple features...

WindowsPhone has had it since its creation as well, and its deeper and better now than Apples will be.

What a funny joke...
IOS is the world's most advanced mobile OS!!! :)))

^^^ so according to u is android the most advanced mobile os ? now dont say yes, ul creat another joke :P
6. Non_Sequitur posted on 11 Jun 2012, 14:15 4 4
"ul creat"
That in itself is a joke. You're a retard, I can just put a Facebook widget on my home screen in Android and it does the same thing.

widget just mess up your phone with its messiness hahahah

How do widgets mess up your phone with messiness if anything widgets clean up your phone. I guess you rather have hundreds of little non functioning blocks on your phone so you can fee like a 2 yr old playing with your boxes. One or two widgets thats actually tell you something and you can move around and customize how big or small and how many you want are better then a ton of little blocks sorry that just common sense even if you an apple fan. I wish apple would switch to having widgets but truth is there software and hardware can not handle it it would crash to much and eat up there battery

android obviously isnt lol, its the most crappy & laggy OS in the world.
32. aikonix posted on 11 Jun 2012, 22:19 2 2
uhhhh, its a hella-of a lot better then iOS thats for damn sure
7. frydaexiii posted on 11 Jun 2012, 14:17 7 4
lol, I was able to do this on my Android ages ago.
Syncing contacts?
Upload from Gallery?
I could do all these on my Wildfire running Eclair!
I don't remember Google using it as a new feature. I guess that's what Apple does best, take something that's hardly a feature and promote it as a main feature.
20. QinEmpire posted on 11 Jun 2012, 14:39 2 4
yeah right, iOS already did that. Its now clearly Facebook my dear, Google clearly copied.

QinEmpire, Taco50, you need to get the F away from PA you WELCHER...
You obviously have NO idea what you are saying when you say it.

9. KingKurogiii posted on 11 Jun 2012, 14:24 4 0
it's okay but it's such an Apple-like update, this is something that should've come with iOS 4 or 5 but oh well. the App Store Integration is pretty nice.

I hope all 3 platforms (iOS. WP, Andro) have deep Facebook integration so we can have more friends.
However, i'm sure Windows Phone 8 is going to have something better than this, since the Microsoft already had Facebook integrated in WP.

nice to see Apple join the party... better late than never I guess
12. RamyRamz69 posted on 11 Jun 2012, 14:29 3 2
Facebook inside Xperia fans will relate to this.
What has been basically in my Xperia Arc(Heck even my X10) is revolutionary now...Wow, just wow.
21. QinEmpire posted on 11 Jun 2012, 14:40 3 3
Yeah sure Xperia have facebook integration, sure it does.
What Google/Sony will do :
Get the Facebook app from Google play, pack it > ship it as bloatware.
Thats integration in android.

It's not bloatware if you actually use it genius
26. fervid posted on 11 Jun 2012, 15:43 4 0
So, this is the new Facebook Phone...no wonder their stock is tanking. My Windows Phone which I hated had better integration with less Facebook.
