Facebook launch new mobile app for feature phones

Facebook launched a new app last week designed in partnership with Snaptu. The app is designed specifically for feature phones which can be described as less expensive, Internet-capable phones. The Facebook for feature phones app works on more than 2 500 devices from a number of manufacturers including Nokia, Sony Ericsson, LG and many more. The app will offer millions of users a better Facebook experience with quick and easy access to their Facebook profiles, messages and so forth thanks to the easier-to-navigate home screen, contact syncing and fast-scrolling features. “We want people to have a great mobile experience no matter what type of phone they carry. Smartphones have offered better features for sharing with friends but aren’t used by most people around the world,” said Mark Heynen, Program Manager at Facebook.

Fourteen mobile operators in various countries have agreed to let Facebook users try the new app free of charge, offering them free data access during the first 90 days. The app is initially being made available through nine mobile operators, mainly in emerging markets, with five more to follow soon.

The app will be made available through more carriers in other countries which will allow more users to have a better mobile Facebook experience regardless of the mobile device they use. Mobile is Facebook’s biggest growth engine, in July 2009 Facebook had about 150 million mobile users out of a total of 500 million members. Now Facebook users who want to update their Facebook profile on-the-go but don’t have a smartphone, have access to an app that allows for bigger functionality. We can’t wait for the app to launch in South Africa!
