Facebook for iPad Gets Retina Graphics

The official Facebook app for iOS, available for free on the App Store, has been updated today to include graphics for the new iPad’s Retina display, and a series of other enhancements. Alongside crisper images for the new display, the 4.1.1 update to the app brings an option to go offline in chat, fixes for the profile picture and names displayed in photo sets, support for more languages, and a number of additional bug fixes to improve the performances of the app. Unfortunately, this version doesn’t sport integration with the Facebook Timeline yet, which, however, was enabled on the iPhone back in December.

You can find Facebook 4.1.1 on the App Store.
