Having been through some BlackBerry Beta Zone testing, the latest Facebook for BlackBerry is now ready for download from BlackBerry World. This release sees the app move into version 4.0.0.13 and adds a small handful of changes to the mix. We've got a change log to go along with the release, so here's what you can expect from it:
- Better navigation – Facebook 4.0 provides a new navigation list that allows you to quickly access messages, chat, friend requests and notifications.
- Enhanced photo experience – You now have more options with the Facebook 4.0 update giving you a richer photo experience. Enjoy full screen photo browsing, add or view tags, and instantly Comment and Like.
- Quicker access to updates – Facebook 4.0 gives you faster content updates with a “pull down to refresh” option so you can check for the latest “News Feed” posts, “Wall” posts, “Messages”, “Events” and “Nearby” pages.
Although it should go without saying, this release covers BlackBerry smartphones running BlackBerry OS 5.0 to 7.1 and is not for BlackBerry 10 smartphones. Cool? You can hit the link below to grab the download.
