Ask HN: Would you use Facebook's original native app now after Paper?

4 points| aditsgupta | 12 years ago | reply

Facebook just released its new app Paper, which essentially takes out the newsfeed from FB and presents it in an amazing fashion. But apart from groups and events, I think it has all the necessary things required for a regular Fb user. So would you want to ever use the Facebook app again?

I think I would enjoy Facebook Paper a lot more if it removed the Facebook news feed entirely. I think it should focus solely on news, not the fact that your friend changed their status or profile picture or whatever. Although, if I want to read non-Facebook news stories, I would probably just use something like Flipboard.

The learning curve is steep. After using it for a while, I still can't figure out how to do certain things.

I don't understand why they decided to hide the status bar.

To make you stay in the app longer

I still can't download it to my 5th gen iPod Touch for some reason. So can't my colleague. Anyone know why? The App Store says it's compatible.
