New York, April 5: Facebook has launched Home, a new Android home screen and user interface which provides deep integration with the billion-member social network. Announced by CEO Mark Zuckerberg at media events in California and London, Facebook Home takes over Android's lock and home screens, showing images, statuses and other content pulled from Facebook.
The software will be available for users to download on April 12 and at first, Facebook Home will only be available to download on just six Android devices: the HTC One, HTC One X, the HTC One X+, the Samsung Galaxy S III and 4 and the Samsung Galaxy Note II. Additionally, HTC and AT&T have teamed up to create a new phone called the HTC First, which will include Facebook Home pre-loaded and was supposedly designed specifically around the new interface.
He said: "Today we are finally going to talk about that Facebook phone, or more accurately, we are going to talk about how you can turn your Android phone into a great social phone."
