Facebook for BlackBerry updated to v3.1.0.11 in the BlackBerry Beta Zone
Using it now. Hope I get better notifications, especially for messages. So far don't see any difference.
I'm tempted to download the latest desktop software in the Beta Zone. Will that install as part of the current software? Or will it be like a separate program on my pc? Also, when the official release comes out will I be able to upgrade no problem or do I have to uninstall the Beta version first?
You will just have to upgrade but there have been exceptions once or twice in the past.

I gave up on notifications long ago. I just have facebook messenger installed and get notifications for new messages with that. It works well.
Hopefully this fixes the notifications // cause before I would never know I got a comment or anything unless I scrolled down tothe Facebook icon .. Thered be a red star notificstion on it, but not at the top of the homescreen & it wouldn't make any sounds either ..
Am I the only one?..
