User Rating3.38/5fBook is an Android app that allows you to interact with your Facebook account from your T-Mobile G1 or Android powered device by Next Mobile Web.
fBook has 6 main features: Home, Profile, Friends, Inbox, Search, and Photo Uploading.
FYI, fBook only offers a few features over the official mobile WAP version Facebook developers created for any phone. But at least it’s a better attempt than the MySpace Mobile app for Android.
Gripe Alert: when you log into fBook, it logs you out from your desktop session and vice versa. (Unsure why, but believe it may be a Facebook API issue…)
The useful feature is the Photo Uploading while mobile and the notifications that you can receive.
fBook is straight-forward and easy to use, very similar to the desktop version of Facebook.
Frequency of use is dependant on the user. If you’re always on Facebook, then you’ll value this Android App .
The user interface and graphics resembles the official Facebook website; clean and easy to navigate (with some slightly jerky transitions).

yeah I’ve used this and It works well. My only gripe is trying to comment on someone’s status is lacking. I don’t know if I just haven’t found out where to do it, but so far I haven’t been able to do it.
If they fix that, it would be better.
cool i like it alot
i have a facebook
How is this app more improved (other than the notification and the pic upload) than the online mobile app? Does anyone know? It takes up a lot of space on the phone. Just curious.
the app is def worth downloading. The only gripe I have is the only gripe I have about the entire G1 phone. The page never stays rendered, and constantly needs to be rerendered, which can take a while if you live where theres only shitty edge like me.
I had this app on my first g1 a week ago. brilliant, great for uploading pictures on the go. My g1 broke and I now have a new one, now i can’t find it on the market?????
does anybody have this on the g1 and if so did i work right i tried it but it didn’t have that interface look it want to a regular interface like on my psp look and i don’t like that as much as the one shown here did i do something wrong? and when you get it on the g1 did you also get that moo? software that it recommended and if so what did that do to help?
Yes I have it back on my G1 now, all apps that accessed phone settings dissapeared for a few days, they all came back after the cupcake update, dunno if it was the market or my phone.
It works fine for me, I have got Moov now, havn’t used it yet though, it looks like its kind of a search engine for your phone/facebook/quickpedia, and some local search. I’ve found no use for it yet though. The pictures above are exactly as I saw it.
fBook appears to have been removed from the market. Does anyone know how I can still get the app?
Can anyone help me locate this app? i really want it for my magic.
@Ian have you tried scanning the QR Code with our reviews? Or tapp the icon from your Android phone to acess the app in the Market?
I don’t see it in the market anymore, nor do I see a QR code anywhere on this page to scan. I can’t find this app anywhere…please help!
@Lucas I think you’re right, this app is not in the market anymore ;-(
We will reach out to the developer to see why.
Well folks… fBook has been pulled from the Android Market and the creators are not at liberty to say why, see link here:

I just removed it. There were a lot of bugs and it wouldn’t log in. Not exactly sure why. The last comments I got from the reviews for it, were that a lot of people were experiencing the same problem.
The developer has a new facebook app out now. I forget what it’s called (something like bloo). I have babbler light and, think it’s really good. It does most things I want for a facebook app.
This app is essentially just m.facebook.com and x.facebook.com in tabs. Big deal.
