Facebook has its Android launcher Home released in the Netherlands. Dutch users can use the app, the lockscreen and homescreen of an Android phone over, install. Only a number of models supports the launcher.

Only recent flagship models from HTC and Samsung can Facebook Home from the Play Store to install. This is the Galaxy S III, Galaxy S4, Note 2, HTC One X, One X+ and One. The launcher is with other phones ‘not compatible’, as is in the Play Store. This includes, inter alia, the Nexus 4 from Google. The launcher can be running on those devices: he is it to install through a mod.

Facebook Home is a launcher: it replaces the lockscreen, homescreen and main menu from an Android phone. By default, the user can through the Facebook feed, browse with Cover Flow, taking photographs of fullscreen to be displayed with text in it. With a double-tap may be a status to be ‘geliked’, a single tap gives the possibility to react. Who is a security code on his phone, by default, Facebook Home browse without the code. Only when an app is opened, the phone will ask to enter the code. This can be disabled.

Facebook Home is separate from the update for Messenger, Facebooks chat. That update offers the feature Chat Heads where an overlay with an avatar serves as a notification. That overlay works across all applications.
