Chatting On Facebook For Ipad
Ingelore Clason
While Facebook has focused on smartphones for its standalone Facebook Messenger app, the company is currently developing a version for the Apple iPad. A reliable source has provided an in-depth look at an early beta version of Facebook Messenger for iPad, and those comfortable with the iPhone version should feel right at home with the new app. Facebook Messenger for iPad is basically a larger version of the iPhone application with one-to-one messaging, group chatting, push notifications, the ability to see friend locations on a map, and more. We have a full gallery of the iPad app after the break.
I tried Center Stage with a cut-out photo of myself, and a picture of me on an iPad, and it followed both. Just FYI: Don't keep other face-like forms near you when you're chatting. It'll also try to track someone else in the room, or pull back to frame you both together.
Concerned about privacy? Check out the best encrypted messaging apps around. Prefer chatting from your desktop at work rather than your smartphone? Our pick of the best chat clients for PC and Mac has you sorted.
What about all the people you asked to be your friend who ignored or deleted your request? Facebook keeps track of that. Go to facebook.com/friends/requests for a list of the people who hate you. Or maybe they just don't check Facebook that much. Probably both.
Dual cameras. One feature of the new tablets that the iPad currently lacks is video capability. The Galaxy Tab has two cameras: a front-facing camera mainly for video chatting, and a higher-resolution cam on the back for photos and videos.
