Facebook have had fully completed developed the iPad App it would be unveiling during the release of iPhone 5 dated  October 4th. following the users have been awaited for long as they commenting to Facebook to create iPad Screen size but there was no app founded in the App Store only unofficial apps are recently available for iPad, The social network may also introduce its latest iPhone app, potentially revamped in HTML5, at the same event. In July, iPad-wielding Facebookers were given a taste of what may come when screenshots of the app were leaked. The app has been in development for over a year and just this morning Jeff Verkoeyen, the former iPad app lead engineer, quit out of frustration. Verkoeyen said on his blog that the app was “feature complete,” or the step just prior to release for testing, since May. His frustration stemmed, however, from Facebook’s decision to push the release date back on more than one occasion. He has since removed the information about the app from his post, according toBusiness Insider. The push back may have stemmed from Apple and Facebook’s shaky relationship, potentially due to a rumored Facebook product code-named “Project Spartan.” The product is supposedly an HTML5 web app aimed at allowing Facebook to circumvent Apple’s app store. Who also note the “Project Spartan” moniker is not used internally. Facebook may also release a new iPhone app built in HTML5 at the event. LinkedIn recently redesigned its own iPhone app using HTML5 and coding language Node.js. The new app was very well received upon release.
