The official Facebook
app for Android has been updated with a couple of small changes to the
"Camera" and "Messenger" applications that come bundled with it. The new
app icons, which first appeared in Facebook's 1.9 update late last week, were
criticized by some due to there being little to tell them apart from
the camera and SMS apps pre-loaded on most Android phones. The fear was
that users would be confused or worse, misled by the apps' presence.
It seems Facebook's taken this criticism to heart, and today it's acted to make things a little more clear for users. In the new version, both app icons now display the Facebook logo in the bottom left corner, further differentiating them from pre-loaded camera and messaging apps.
Hit that update button to grab the new version. Alternatively, we've got the usual Google Play Store linkage after the break.
