Facebooks iPad app finally coming?

September 27th, 2011 by Joseph Ruthaford

So I have read reports that are saying that the long awaited Facebook app for the iPad is finally going to be here. Apparently Facebook will be announcing this at the iPhone 5 launch on October 4th. There has been speculation even that this app has been completed since the month of May. Though the reason for this has been cited as the rocky relationship Facebook has with Apple and timing. Now for those who may not know the two companies haven’t been the best of friends, an example of this Facebook stopped Facebook Connect in Ping because Apple didn’t give Facebook any warning about this feature which would have taken a major deal of bandwidth on Facebooks side of things. Also there was the speculation of Facebook being integrated into the iOS well that fell apart and now Twitter is integrated. However from the signs of things, they been able to kiss and make up on this finally being able to announce this app on a big day shows that Apple is serious about all of this.
