Facebook can be pretty slow with updating their native apps for different smartphone platforms. Their Android app was left ignored for quite some time before it was finally brought in line with their iOS app (which is considered the best out of all of them) and their iPad app, which reportedly had been ready since May, was only released earlier this month. Facebook has been especially not giving their Windows Phone app due attention as it has been updated today after what seems like months. It brings support for Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, which was released just a few weeks ago.

Samsung's recently released AllShare DLNA app offers Windows Phone owners of the Sammy persuasion the ability to share all kinds of media over a WiFi network to any DLNA-compatible TV or set-top box. The problem though, is that when attempting to run the app on certain Samsung devices, users were met with an error, and as a result were unable to take advantage of what AllShare has to offer. The popular belief is that Samsung doesn't want owners of certain handsets to have access to AllShare, though the reasoning is unclear. With that in mind, it's possible that users could experience some off behavior on certain handsets, but we've not seen any reports either for, or against that theory just yet.
The famous cross-platform messaging app WhatsApp is now officially available for all users running the latest and greatest mobile OS from Microsoft, Windows Phone 7.5 Mango.
Popular cross-platform instant messaging application WhatsApp is now available for download from the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace, Redmond Pie has learned.

Yet, many might still be using services outside Microsoft's umbrella, such as Google Talk. If you've been struggling for a way to use Google's instant messaging service on your new Windows Phone 7.5 Mango device, Gchat is the perfect app for you.
