WARNING! Try this at your own risk
Would you like to try Facebook Home before anyone else? Keep reading 😉
Facebook Home, a launcher for Android, will be released on the US Play Store on April 12. It will only be compatible with 5 smartphones at the beginning.
If you would like to get your hands on Facebook Home and try its features (although some of them, like “Chat Heads don´t work at the moment), you can try this leaked beta, compatible with more models including the Nexus 4.
Here´s how to do it:
- You need an Android smartphone with a maximum display resolution of 1280×768 — anything above that won’t work
- You need to allow your device to install apps from unknown sources
- You need to ensure you uninstall the official Facebook and Facebook Messenger apps from your Android device.
- Once you’ve done that, download these three APK files – the main Facebook app (‘katana’), the now-integrated-with-your-SMS Messenger app (orca) and the Home / Launcher ‘shell’ app (home)
That´s it! Did you try it? Do you like it? Le us know in the comment section below 🙂
