Facebook app for iOS gets a long-awaited update

20120824-070346.jpg
Over the years, the Facebook app morphed from a rather useful and snappy app to an extremely sluggish and CPU-hungry app. Until now. Facebook has released its latest version of the app, version 5.0, and it promises to fix the sluggishness, and it delivers. When I first opened the app, it looked like there was no change, but after closing the app through the multitasking bar and re-opening it, the speed of it getting to my newsfeed was quite astounding. If you got so sick of the sluggishness of the old app that you started using the mobile site, now is the time to go back to the app. You can update it on your iDevice’s app store or get it here.
