After being criticized for giving users a "light" version of its social network, Facebook on Tuesday launched its version 2.0 app (free,
App Store) for iPhone and iPod touch.
The update adds many of the missing features from the web version to the native mobile app, including the complete news and mini feeds, the ability to find and approve new friends, and attachments with messages. It's now more feature-rich than the iPhone's web app, Facebook argues.
Photo management has also been given a boost and lets members post photos directly to friends' Walls as well as caption and tag shots.
The Palo Alto-based developer also claims much improved speed and crash resistance compared to 1.x builds.
