Best Facebook Alternative Apps For Android

One of the most popular applications in the android market is the Official Facebook app with over 100,000,000 plus downloads. This application helps you to connect to Facebook in one touch and sharing your photos from gallery direct to Facebook. But many of the reviews and user experiences shows that the official Facebook app for android is not the best!. Talking about my own experiences, it doesn't seems to be efficient in terms of speed and interface is confusing and laggy..



The following problems were reported by users:
  • Force close, freezing.
  • Very slow login and caching updates
  • Uses fair amount of RAM, run in background
  • Syncing problem and poor integration with android 4 (Ice-cream sandwich) 


However those who don't like the native Facebook app for your android phone, here's some alternative apps that found to be fast and I experienced a pleasant use with them. 




1.FriendCaster
The Friendcaster application for Facebook claims the best Facebook alternative app since it has the following advantages over the standard Facebook application.

  • Enforced SSL encryption gives better security.
  • Push notification from GMAIL.
  • Re-share friend's posts
  • Fully integrated to android gallery app, and allows you to upload multiple photos and videos to facebook. 
  • Faster than Official app.
  • Includes advanced photo editing and effects.
  • Looks much lighter than standard app but support more themes.
  • Scroll-down to refresh.


During the first time you login to Facebook, allow the application to access you basic information's. You can manage multiple Facebook account with this application. This application leaves a shortcut in the main menu  to directly access the camera and upload taken pictures very fast. The start-up time for this application is quite less compared to standard app.

2. Seesmic For Facebook and Twitter
It's a lightweight application that provides easy way to manage and update you social networks. You can manage you Facebook, twitter etc accounts simultaneously and you'll get notifications for new messages.




Features: 
  • Full facebook integration with management of pages you admin.
  • Shortcuts to accounts, composer, pages, searches, lists, chatter groups etc
  • Easily manage the look and feel from the settings.


Both these apps can be downloaded from the android market for Free of Cost.
