Here’s How You Can Get Facebook’s Flat UI Version For Android

Back in October 2013, Facebook announced it would be offering a new ‘Facebook Alpha program’ for Android users who want to test out fresh features before they hit the stable release. Facebook has been testing a redesigned version of the Android app that looks similar to its iOS variant, offers a completely new flat UI and many changes under the hood, and brings new tabbed navigation to the table. The flat UI variant hasn’t hit the stable channel yet, and although the social network giant will begin rolling it out in the coming days, you can test it on your device right now by joining the Facebook Alpha program. In this guide, we’ll show you how. Read on!
The first thing you need to do is make sure you’re not already a member of Facebook Beta test program as this may create conflict between alpha and beta updates of the app. If you’re already a beta tester, then simply head over to its Google Group, click the small User button at top right corner and click ‘Leave this group’...

If you’re not already a member of Beta Tester Program then simply skip this step.

The next step is to click the  ‘Become A Tester’ button again on the following screen. It will prompt you for confirmation as well as give you the app’s Play Store page from where you can download the Facebook app. Your existing Facebook app will be replaced by the Alpha version. Alternatively, you may be asked within a few hours to update your current Facebook app directly from your device.

    again and asked if she could send me a link.
    Though many people associate rehab with 'hard' drugs such
    as heroin, meth, and cocaine, alcohol addiction
    treatment is necessary for alcoholics to become sober.
