I just wanted to give you guys a heads up. Version 1.0.1 just got approved, here's the new features:

- Badge icon fixed (the notifications didn't always update right away, now it will even if you have the window closed, just make sure the app is still running)

- Won't ask you to sign in every time

- Back / Forward buttons

- Random bug fixes

We're working on new updates, if you have any suggestions we will consider anything :)

Even more good news, the free version finally got approved! A few features are missing but it's a nice way to try it before buying the + version.

(to the mods, I hope it's ok I added the download link to this thread, I figured it's better than creating a new thread for the free version)

You can check it out here:

MyFace (free): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/myface-for-facebook/id590258232?ls=1&mt=12

I don't get it, why use this when you can just open Firefox or Safari and browse to the actual website? I can see it's appeal on mobile platforms, it'd look killer on iOS but on OS X it's just a waste of money.

Criticism aside it looks great, and it's aesthetically pleasing, looks like it's made more for iOS rather than OS X, but nice job anyway.

There's also an iOS version https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/myface+-for-facebook/id589788759?mt=8

On the desktop, some people prefer apps as opposed to a tab in a sea of other tab in the browser (although with FF and Chrome you can pin tabs which helps). Here's some more reasons why you would use MyFace:

- Badge notifications (whenever you get something message, notification, or request)

- Cleans up the Facebook site (removes a lot of junk)

- No "chrome" (as in window chrome, not the browser)

Is it iphone only or is it a universal app that works on ipad?

There are a lot of issues with the interface:

- No rounded window corners

- Scroll bar that goes over what's supposed to be a toolbar

- Mac OS X Tiger-like toolbar buttons??

- No rounded search field

- The black "toolbar" in general looks off

Why don't you guys go with an App Store-like design: Native toolbar with your custom webpage underneath?

I decided to check out the iOS version since it was free, and it is not getting past this intro video, which as far as I can see, I also cannot skip the video. So basically I am stuck on a black screen with a small window that does nothing and is also blank. I forced close the app and it just launched the intro video again and same deal. Stuck. 4th Gen iPad

Here I took a screenshot

One major issue that prevents me from using this over the Facebook webpage: You need to add a feature that moves all the "shared" posts to a separate tab somewhere...

I use Social Fixer, an extension in Safari, and I have it set to move all "shared" posts and "game" posts to their own tabs. This keeps my News Feed clean with just the real status updates from friends and family.

If you were to add a feature that does that to clean the News Feed, I'd move over.

360 Studios has refused to pay me for the agreed work done :/

I might come up with a full featured Facebook client in the future but in the mean time you'll have to contact 360 studios for support with this app.

Very sorry for anyone who got caught in the middle of this.

@DirtyLarry: I didn't have any part in the iOS version so I can't help you :( sorry

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
