Good day!


Facebook released a new update from redesign to possible performance improvements. Here's a quick view of the new updates:

• A new look and other design updates:
- Swipe to quickly navigate among different areas in Facebook
- Search anywhere using the new search button
- Access Most Recent and other feeds under More on the right
- Create posts even when your connection is weak or you’re in airplane mode, and they’ll be shared once your connection gets strong enough
• Improvements for reliability and speed


The `bold` font in the list is somewhat useful especially when you have typed lots of words and after tapping the Post, your connect suddenly failed. Now, your post can be saved offline and it will automatically be posted after your internet connection gets back online. See screenshot below on how it looks like:
