Facebook for Android gets another upgrade

Android users once again have another upgrade for the Facebook app. Now, pictures can be posted on your friend's wall or on a group's wall. And when a photo is posted, the orientation of the snapshot is automatically adjusted. Another improvement was made to the app when in landscape mode. Of course, the upgrade also takes care of the usual minor bugs.

Version 1.5.2 for Android is now available in the Android Market. Let us know if you like the new upgrade by dropping a comment in the box below.

when's the last time you've used it? recent updates of the app DEFINITELY put it on par with iOS's own app.

The Facebook app is shameful... the ones in charge of it wont add key features everyone wants... even a random guy made a app on the market that beats the official Facebook app (uses some features from the original FB app and works more like a plug in) in case you are curious its called "flow" and shows how things should be done

This is curious since Zuckerberg himself uses an Android phone since ditching his iPhone last year.

I have the EVO and the Facebook Android app is horrible compared to the Webos app.

C'mon... there MUST be an app in the Android Market. Since they even have an app that farts when you shake your phone... The bestest mobile platform. With over a zillion of applications... Sweet;-) Until recently, the Market didn't even offer a decent F1 Application... Yes. I am a fanboy. But I'm really trying hard to be ballanced in my comments.
