List Of Best Facebook Apps For Android

Updated on April 23, 2016 Rajesh Bhuin moreContact Author Everybody is nor a great fan of the official Android app for Facebook. The official app is feature-rich and handy. You can do almost everything in it. But, still it is disliked by some. The UI is one of the reasons for it. The app does not look so good. One of the major drawbacks of the app is its big footprint. This app is a very resource hungry beast and uses a lot of RAM, memory space and data. If you are a fan of light apps which will not strain your Android phones performances, you may check the alternative Facebook apps for Android. Here, in this hub, I have collected a list with pros and cons of the best alternative Facebook client apps. Read my mini-reviews and select the one which would be best for you. The developer of the Friendcaster app, "OneLouder apps" is well known for their another social media app, Tweetcaster. They have also a reditt client named BaconReader.

Friendcaster supports multiple Facebook accounts to be opened simultaneously. You can customize the look of the app by changing themes. There are currently six themes available. The app shows the newsfeed of all the open accounts. You can comment, like and share a post, photo or a video. The user can post status updates. Photos and videos can also be flawlessly updated. You can save a particular post for future viewing. You can hide any post from your newsfeed. There is a push notification system to let you know about your friends activities. You can also download videos from Facebook. The app is not as fast as some of the other available FB clients. There are some bugs in it too like not supporting direct actions in friend requests. I have tested and liked the app. It is good. But if you want something faster, do not download it. No list of Facebook clients for Android would be regarded complete without mentioning Fast for Facebook. This app is very popular.

Fast is a lighter and faster alternative to the official app. More colorful and better designed than the official app. The User Interface can be customized as much as you like. Fast is a small app and never uses too much resource. So, if you use Fast for Facebook you will have a faster phone. The app consumes less data, so your data plan will last longer. As it is not heavy, Fast will use much less battery juice than the official FB app. There are multiple languages support in it. It shows a user customizable newsfeed from Facebook. You can create your own feeds with selected pages, groups and friends. The user can watch videos from Facebook inside the app. It also supports YouTube videos. Fast for Facebook supports chat. So, you do not need to download the Facebook messenger app. Within the app, one can easily download the photos and videos from Facebook. Fast is great but not flawless. There are some minor bugs in the app. If you are a user of 2G internet, you must use Fast. If you used a limited 3G plan, I'll also recommend Fast, as it will not consume much data.

There are some people who want to get the full Facebook on phone. Full Facebook means PC like FB experience on your Android phone. Well, there is an app named "Full Book for Facebook" for it. Desktop like full Facebook experience on your phone. Everything works like the PC version. If you use this app, you do not need to use any messenger app for chat. This is a slow app. You will not be able to enjoy the benefits of the app without 3G or WiFi. It consumes huge amount of data. There are some bugs and faults in the app. If you are a fan of the Facebook full website and do not want anything less, then go for this app. For those, who like to use Facebook like a mobile user, this app is a big "no". Stream is fast and reliable. The user interface is good-looking and smooth. There are black and white themes.
