Today, Facebook is one of the most visited places on the Internet, offering people around the world the possibility to easily stay connected with their friends or family even when on the go.

And since more and more users are accessing it from their mobile phones, the emergence of applications that will facilitate that was only natural to occur.

One of these mobile clients is fMobi, which offers users of Nokia devices the possibility to easily stay connected to Facebook while on the go.

The new mobile application is compatible with devices that run under Symbian or Maemo, and is said to pack a series of features sure to make a wide range of users rejoice.

“fMobi is a new and notable Facebook client that warrants a deep dive. fMobi is written in Qt which means it runs incredibly fast and nimble on my Nokia N8 and it has a stunning user interface as well,” a post on Nokia Conversations reads.

After installing and launching the new application, users will be taken to a tiled screen that will provide them with all of the features that Facebook has to offer.

For example, users will be able to share status or photos, as well as to update their location or to check in on Groups and Events, and more. The mobile application can be used both on portrait and landscape mode, and offers increased responsiveness.

fMobi was designed so as to enable users share all details they would like to on Facebook. The status can be changed right from the homescreen, with a regular text notification, while sharing of photos is as simple.

“The photo upload will allow you to choose which album to upload into and then prompt you to upload a photo from your library,” the aforementioned blog post explains.

With the new application, users will also find it easy to check in to a location, as it comes with full Places support. It enables viewing the location of friends as well, along with the ability to chat with friends and family.

Moreover, the app comes with groups support, so that users can connect with one another based on their common interests or hobbies. The software also comes with notifications and other extras, so as to keep users up to date with what interests them the most on Facebook.

“In case you want to be kept up to date on Facebook on an ongoing basis, fMobi supports audio notifications of incoming messages, “Likes” on your posts and check-ins and other events. The application has full support for Liking and commenting throughout the Facebook ecosystem,” the said blog post explains.
