New iPhone Facebook app coming next month

August 21st, 2008

Facebook has just announced version 2 of their iPhone application, due to come out sometime in September. Based on the screenshots they’ve shown, it looks slick!

I’m a pretty big fan of the current app, but apparently others aren’t so happy with it (check out these comments on Gizmodo).

Some of the new features include:

  • Full news feed, not just status updates.
  • Notifications. These will even work with the background push notification, once Apple gets it going.
  • Redesigned profiles.
  • Find/approve new friends.
  • Full inbox. The current version only will show your 30 most recent messages.

It sounds like a great update. If we hear of a more specific release date, we’ll let you know.

In the meantime, here are some screenshots to help you get a better feel for it.
