Facebook also made some security tweaks (added SSL) and fixed a handful of bugs. The update is available to download via the Android Market.

Cant view video's now

Did the update and cant view video's people posted because it says I need flash player which my phone the Samsung fascinate doesn't have. Facebook worked great before the update and now even when on home page peoples pics dont show up until I click on it and even then not all show up? WTF did they do this sucks and don't know how to redo it.

But they didn't bother to fix...

...the push notifications, which have been broken since the advent of 1.5.1.

Massive fail for Facebook.

Want a real Facebook app for Android, look up Flow for Facebook in the Market.
