Facebook announced Home, its new approach to Android today. We had a hands-on (video above) with the new HTC First device that comes preinstalled with Facebook Home, as well as a downloaded version of Facebook Home on a Samsung device.
You can see the various features in the video, including Cover Feed, Chat Heads, and the new navigation, which Facebook calls “physics-based.” Cover Feed is like News Feed but an expanded scrolling version so that each photo or status update takes up the full screen of the phone. Chat Heads are a new way of messaging (through Facebook Messages or SMS) that are accessible even when using other apps.
You have to see the video to really understand how Facebook is attempting to re-think the mobile experience
