Hey does anybody know how to tag pics from fb when Im uploading them from the evo? Is there just not a way? It seems pretty ******ed that I have to upload them then go to the computer and then tag em..... any info would be appreciated

Use the HTC FB app. It allows you to do that better/easier.

Wait what?
The Facebook app that comes on the EVO? I think that is what he is talking about. I havent figured out how to tag using that app.

Mine came with two apps: one says Facebook, and the other says Facebook by HTC.

When you go to a picture in your gallery and select the "Y" looking icon, then choose Facebook for HTC Sense and then select the picture. Then select "Next" and on top of the image you chose, there should be a box with the words "Tap to add caption." Do so, add caption, and then select "Upload."

That isnt tagging though, that is adding a caption.

Oh... my mistake.

I don't know about regular tagging through the app. I post the pic using the aforementioned method and then just go to FB using the browser if I want to tag stuff.

Sorry for the confusion (in my part, obviously).

All the Android Facebook apps suck, including Bloo (which is so buggy, I don't get the attraction). Can any delete a post, for example?

Then again, I'm tiring of Facebook, so it doesn't matter much to me.

The Android app is in need of some upgrades, the webOS version has surpassed it.

I think the only thing worse than the Android version is the BlackBerry version, it can tag people in pics, but holy mother of god the updating friends BS was the worst!

I'm not a fan of it either. Anyone know if an update to the native app is in the works. The iPhone apparently was much nicer. I'll still keep my evo though.

Although, there is an official Facebook app...it is not developed by Facebook. Thus it's never going to have the full functionality the iPhone app has. The iPhone app is developed by Facebook itself. There was a good article about Facebook not wanting to invest any money into Android Facebook app, but with so many users I think they might have to rethink this decision. And now I can't find that article!

Former iPhone user here. the iPhone FB app is pretty flawless with the exception of some quirky updating issues that get annoying.

I agree for the last year and a half I had a BB Pearl and a iPod Touch. I carried the iPod everywhere. I just connected to WiFi nearly everywhere I was. I had done research and knew that the Android Facebook app was sub par to the iPhone one...but man! Hopefully Facebook will come out with their own. There are a lot of us Android users out there, they will have to give eventually.

yeah its disappointing Palm made a better facebook app in a year than the android one.

But as long as i can read status, go to profiles, make comments on pictures and search thats pretty much all i do anyway.
