Facebook Version 334.0.0.0.24 Alpha – The Simplest Way to Stay in Touch With Friends

We, humans, are social beings. Our most fundamental forms of organization are all revolving around social constructs like family and, to a great extent, society.

A fundamental aspect of being part of a society is… socializing!

For thousands of years, socializing meant actually being in front of other fellow humans and talking to them or, less frequently, sending letters.

However, little more than a century ago, technology began to sky-rocket, especially in the field of telecommunications. It started with radio transmissions and telephones. Imagine the difference between sending someone a letter combined with waiting entire weeks for a response and calling them – talking in real-time, with little delay, being able to share more information in less time, improving efficiency. The next big step was the internet, which permanently changed how we interact with one another.

A few decades after the introduction of the internet, social networks became more and more popular. However, one name stands above all – Facebook, the social network that rapidly stole the attention of hundreds of millions of people across the globe.

With Facebook, you can take socializing to a whole new level. You can post photos, make albums, share funny images, sell or buy items, find out about social events around your area with a few taps and swipes on your smartphone’s display.

Also, Facebook is extremely popular for its messaging service, Messenger, where you can send text/voice messages, make audio or video calls, share your location, and more.

Facebook is one of the most popular apps of all time, and that is both a blessing and a curse. As it has to run on so many different devices in various regions across Earth, problems with the app can occur at any step.

Therefore, the Facebook app running on your phone requires occasional updates.

The app has just reached version 334.0.0.0.24. With each new version, Facebook gets incrementally better, so it’s recommended that you don’t miss out on any new updates.

We highly suggest that you update the app as soon as you can, or even better, enable the auto-update function of your Android device and let the operating system take care of the job for you.
