Know all about 'Facebook Home' app for Android
Facebook unveiled its most ambitious attempt yet to enter mobile computing without a phone of its own, introducing a new app that replaces the home screen on some Android smartphones. Here are some facts about the 'Facebook Home' app:
The 'Home' app will be launched first on HTC First phones and from April 12 it will available for download for free from Google Play.

In simple words, after installing the 'Home' app, a user will see images from Facebook updates cover the entire screen, while status updates and icons of friends float on top.
The app has a feature called 'News Feed', that enables you turn on your phone or press the home button, you see a stream of posts. Cover feed puts the spotlight on whatever friends are sharing now—photos, status updates, links and more.The Home app also has a feature called 'Chat Heads' that allows users to see small icons of friends when they send a Facebook or text message.
The new app lets users comprehensively modify Android, to prominently display their Facebook newsfeed and messages on the home screens of a wide range of devices.
