Facebook for iOS updated with improved group messaging, cover photo changing

Continuing its string of frequent Facebook mobile app updates, Facebook has updated its iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch application with enhancements to group messaging. Facebook says that the application update will now require fewer taps to begin a message. Additionally, naming group conversations is now easier. Another neat enhancement is the new ability to change your Timeline cover photo from your iOS device. In the coming weeks, Facebook will update its mobile apps with a redesigned NewsFeed.
