Facebook for iPhone Updated to 3.5

Facebook

 

Facebook has just pushed out version 3.5 of their iPhone app to Apple App Store. The changelog says its added the ability to tag friends and places in posts, and to share sites you are exploring in the web browser; note that they mean the web browser inside their app, not Safari. If you want to share things from a browser, may we suggest you try "Dolphin". Back to Facebook, they have also tweaked the design of profiles and group walls, improved the sharing tool to add privacy controls, improved how quickly you get notifications, fixed a number of chat bugs, made it easier to select filters in News Feed, fixed a bug with the notifications bar disappearing, something that only recently started happening to us, fixed a number of photos bugs, and improved performance and stability overall.


We are still kind of bummed that they have not released an iPad version, but whats most infuriating is that there is still no way to apply custom privacy settings per shared item. If we want to share something with our friends that we very well know offends two or three people, we want the ability to not share said post with those few friends. Its something thats easy as cake to do on the Facebook desktop website, but its impossible with both the mobile app and mobile optimized website.
