Microsoft has always been a lag when it comes to WINDOWS PHONE. For too long now Microsoft has been under the shadow of Android and iOS when it comes to providing their users with free and quality Apps. Microsoft It's trademark "Marketplace" doesn't come with the trendy apps. Take an example of an classic never-ending viral game Temple Run; year and a half after getting released on Android and iOS platforms it was finally released for Windows Phone. This shows how suppressed Microsoft has been about one area and that's APPS. 
So, what's now? Well, now Microsoft has reportedly made their developers sit with Facebook developers to create and Official Facebook App for Windows platform. This move comes exactly after 2 years of app being released for Android and iOS platforms. However, the sad news is the only Windows Phone compatible with this App are the one which operate on Windows 8.And the higher version 8.1 which is slated for a release in early April '14. The app was released on 5th march 2014. Since then it has mostly received positive response from users. (you can check for reviews and every detail from the link provided below)
