MenuTab for Facebook v6.9 Review!

There is no official Facebook app for Lion and when looking at 3rd party apps it was very difficult to find one for Lion, the majority needed Yosemite or El Capitan.  I did find one and it is actually really good.  Say hello to MenuTab for Facebook.

The standout feature of the app is that it resides in your menu bar at the top of the screen and fully integrates into Lion.  As there are post updates your a notified with a pop up and the same goes for when you get Facebook Messenger ... ehr ... um ... messages.  Clicking on it brings up a nice mobile like view of Facebook that you are use or, if you opt to do an in app purchase, can make it a full screen app by clicking "desktop."  I found I leave it in the mobile mode most of the time because it is very handy and attractive.

If you don't opt for the in app purchases (every feature is $1.99 or you can get all five for $2.99 total, which is what I did) then you will get advertisements and nag messages to go pro.  For me it was worth the $3 to have the full, uncompromised application (I went pro within ten minutes so I am not sure what all nagging there is) as I had advertisements. 

Fiplab, the makers of MenuTab for Facebook, has several other applications that work with Lion and I actually own one other, their Gmail application called MailTab for Gmail which I will be reviewing soon.  It works the same way as MenuTab for Facebook and is just as good of a product.  Hopefully more developers out there will continue to support Lion in all it's greatness!

MenuTab for Facebook proves you can still make a great product for a forgotten operating system!
