As you might have heard, Facebook’s Paper app is now available for download starting today. The app was announced last week and it was basically a new way of viewing your Facebook News Feed. So far most of the early reviews of the app have been pretty positive and we’re sure by now many of you guys are eager to get your hands on it. Unfortunately that will not be happening anytime soon if you don’t live in the US and if you don’t have an iPhone. The app was initially launched for iPhone devices and we were wondering when it would be released for the iPad and Android devices.
However the folks at Facebook have recently confirmed to Pocket-Lint where they stated that a release for the iPad version, Android, and international users will not be happening anytime soon. This is because resources are limited at this time, in the sense that there are about fifteen people that are part of the Paper team at the moment. We’re guessing Facebook did not anticipate that there would be such a high demand for its Paper app as it was initially conceived as an experiment of sorts and was a testing ground for Facebook design. Either way here’s hoping that Paper will see a release on other platforms and international markets in the near future.

We heard earlier this month that Facebook was working on an app that would rival Flipboard. Last week the company confirmed that it was indeed developing such an app, it was formally unveiled on January 30th as Paper. Starting today, people in the U.S. can download Facebook Paper app for iOS. The idea behind this app is to make it easier for users to explore and share stories from their friends as well as from the world around them. The immersive design has garnered a lot of praise from critics after Facebook released the official images of Paper, from today the public can start to use the app and form their own opinion of it.
