Everyone gets tired of the ugly, slow official Facebook app so why don’t you give a try to Klyph: a new client for Facebook.

With a nice and smooth UI designed following the Android Design Guidelines, Klyph looks like the Google+ app but for Facebook.

Still young and in early development, Klyph is certainly not perfect yet and may still miss some features but tries to bring the best user experience of Facebook on your Android devices (mobiles and tablets).

Also, due to Facebook limitations on third-party apps, the following features are not allowed:
• Like a page
• Tagging in statuses/comments with “@” like the official Facebook app
• Share a status/photo/video on a friend’s timeline.

Klyph contains some ads, because, well, we are not Facebook (and do not work for Facebook either) so we have to earn money from one way or another to continue the development. If you like Klyph, and want to support us or just get rid of ads, please buy the pro version here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abewy.klyph.pro.

We are looking for translators. Making a translation take less than two hours, so contact us if you want to make Klyph available in your language.

We are always happy to receive suggestions, bug reports or simply a thank you. We always try to answer so don’t hesitate to send us an email.

To people who rate the app 1 or 2 stars : we can understand that you dislike the app either because of its design, bugs or anything else but please, please, let a comment to help us improve the app.

What are users saying about Klyph for Facebook

Literally the smoothest, battery-saving Facebook client I've used. Game requests take me straight to the game instead of opening the web browser, the Play Store and then the app itself, and its interchangeable themes are spectacular. It makes me sad knowing that the project won't be maintained anymore :/

K70%
by K####:

A much much much better alternative Facebook's broken app! Missing the ability to tag friends on comments! and it would be cool if you changed the logo of Klyph, not to get in to your guys' business but it definitely needs a facelift. 5 STAR IF YOU ADD THE FRIEND TAGGING IN COMMENTS

K70%
by K####:

I was literally about to delete the Facebook app until I tried to share a picture and post a comment. For what ever reason, the app redirected me to the mobile site of Facebook then back to the app to do both of the above. Also doesn't recognize friend's names when typing in comment box. The app is what Facebook should be but it's functionality is less to be desired. Uninstalling for now

By far the best FB app, at this point. It's my primary client now. I'm worried about memory usage though. It hit 120 megs during normal use. Even so, I'm willing to put up with it given the great user experience.

K70%
by K####:

Klyph is a great alternative to the official Facebook app. It's aesthetically pleasing (much more so than the official app) and functional. My only complaint is that there's no option to open notifications that lead to outside sites in my phone's default browser instead of the app's built in browser.

K70%
by K####:

Not too sure what's going on but i can't see anything at all. It just shows a red card that says "An error has occurred" and a refresh button below it. When i try to refresh, it just shows the red card again. Please try to address this if you can. I see great potential in the app but i can't even use it. Sent from my GS3 on CM11

Application has great UI. The problem is that I don't want to have 2 separate apps for Facebook. I don't want to switch to another app if I want to send simple message. If you will integrate messaging into the app I will buy it and leave 5 stars rating.

Which really, is one of the main points, making this a broken and unusable for me. Using the Nexus 7 2013 model. Everything else is alright - best looking Holo theme / FB app on GPlay

by K####:

Some pics dont show up and some that do are really badly pixelated and the only way to tell what they are is to click on them. Also if its a video sometimes theres no preview pic showing. At least it's showing me everything now. Never will understand why facebook won't show everything.

K70%
by K####:

I like the app, absolutely love the ui. But for some reason pictures show up blurry even after I disabled the option in settings. Please fix it

K70%
by K####:

Great app with a card layout ui like g+. Also lite on memory so loads better than "official" fb app! Edit: I dont get notifications anymore.. plz update!

K70%
by K####:

This app is simply superb. UI is same as Google+ app that we all love. Must switch to this from Facebook app. Facebook app is horrible compared to this IMO. Also messenger is much like Hangouts, but still needs improvements, after all it's in beta so we can't demand hell lot of awesomeness out of it ;-)

While i was curious to see if there was another application for Facebook,I came around this but this needs work You can open inboxes but not reply to them huh?? It has those annoying zoosk adds You need the official facebook application to sign in why? Wheres the option to see my own wall after posting something? 2/5

K70%
by K####:

I really enjoy the app and haven't had any problems up until recently. As of late I have not been able to comment or like anything from another person but I can still interact with posts from pages. I realize this is most likely an issue with Facebook so I'm still leaving four stars. Five if a fix is found.

K70%
by K####:

Yes, it performs like the G+ app UI-wise, unfortunately the G+ app actually works like I want it to and Klyph doesn't. Half the photos in posts don't load, some posts don't even show that photos are attached until I look at them in a browser, and yesterday I stopped being able like posts that weren't from a group.

Official app will singlehandedly drain my full battery in 8 hours. This app behaves and my phone lasts 3 days solid. Also, the app works. Well done!

K70%
by K####:

The only screen that kept popping up was.. you have already authorized this app.. nothing else ever came up

V70%
by V####:

Everything shows up except News Feed. I keep getting the "An error has occurred" message when I try to view my news feed and others.

M70%
by M####:

Every time I try to do anything with this app a message pops up saying "You have already authorized Klyph." with the "confirm" and "cancel" commands. If I select confirm it pops up again, if I select cancel the app stops completely. If I can't see or interact with my facebook page the app is as useless as the original.

C70%
by C####:

Everyone knows the official Facebook app is slow and buggy. Facebook should take notice of Klyph. Lightweight, light/dark themes, extremely smooth with nice transition effects, reply to comments. The list goes on. Seriously the best replacement app available for Facebook on android.

M70%
by M####:

What a pity he stopped the updates and support. This is better than the actual Facebook app but this no longer works. It desperately needs a fix so it can see the timeline again then it will be the best Facebook app on Android again..

L70%
by L####:

Faster, smoother, and lighter than the FB app. The Google plus look is awesome but lacks alot of FBs features can't edit or delete comments, can't reply to individual comments and sometimes the news feed doesn't load every story. If FB really blocks it from doing all that than its a shame because this app has great potential to be the best FB alternative. FB needs to step it up alot

M70%
by M####:

I'm impressed with this app really very nice but? When I click to like a comment or photo of my fb friend one error come that cannot like.. And if I like group or page like everything is ok please solve this bug.....

M70%
by M####:

I love using this app more than any other client (especially the official Facebook app) but there are a few bugs I've run into. There are times when I can't see the comments on a post, and cannot like a post. Get those worked out and it's an easy 5 stars

Q70%
by Q####:

This is exactly what I have been looking for. The official fb app is evil it drains the battery never keeps settings. This app is by far better, doesn't suck up storage and ram with nothing to show for it. It actually works and is built smaller than fb's official app.5 stars no less keep up the great work.

Won't load my news feed. I'm on a Verizon Galaxy S4 on 4.4.2 Kitkat. I enabled alternate news feed method and nothing changed.

D70%
by D####:

Excellent UI and works brilliant, superior by far to fb app, complete with skins but missing more modern features as it's not being maintained . Waiting for those to give it 5 stars but currently is not completely usable on its own. Hopefully someone else picks up the code and betters it as it's my favourite fb app yet.

E70%
by E####:

Logged in fine, gets notifications fine but everything else (news feed, pages, lists, etc) all just say "an error occurred ". Rebooted app, rebooted phone, logged in & out, always the same. Pity, looks like a good app.

D70%
by D####:

When I respond or comment it post it two or three times then errors. Other than that I love the UI. Gotta fix this post issue though... Update: problem seems to have gone for now. We'll see how it goes. So much better than the crap FB app. Doesn't need all the rubbish permissions.

X70%
by X####:

I am not a regular Facebook user and rarely open this app but I opened it today and it is not updating the news feed. Always says an error had occurred

S70%
by S####:

Posting a photo to timeline vs adding to an album is confusing. Half the time tapping a notification takes me to "An error has occurred". Some friends' timelines do this every time. Switching to Tinfoil until I see an update here that changes my mind.

Fast speed and useful i loved

Apps runs and looks great. I hate this app is no longer in development.

W70%
by W####:

Got to say I love it. Its got me using Facebook again whose stupendous need for breaching every bit of security on our devices offended me greatly. Thanks for all the hard work dev, will be purchasing the pro version VERY soon! Only one issue noted is I cannot always LIKE posts and articles.

T70%
by T####:

I absolutely love the design, but there are so many things just not working. Lots of "Blah commented on a post" with no way of seeing the post. Plenty of photos come down in very low res as well. A real shame because this app has so much potential.

S70%
by S####:

Installed the other day. Did ok but now no longer works. Reinstalled and it doesn't work at all. Ah well. It was good when it worked. Uninstall

S70%
by S####:

Great overall. Has a great ui, and loads comments well, I just want to be able to sort posts by new and not the recommended by Facebook.

S70%
by S####:

I can see replies and reply directly! Plz add picture comment!

S70%
by S####:

I can see notification, can chat, but don't see any latest feed. It worked only 1st day of installation. Has copy, paste, delete option... But... Have to uninstall for now.

Please fix the reply section in the inbox, or must we really use the chat application?
