iOS vs. Android on Facebook Deals: What up with that?

I’ve enlisted the help of SNL’s Kenan Thompson to help me solve this puzzle. Please give a listen while you read the rest of this post:


I created a Facebook deal for our employees at Allen & Gerritsen to give them a sense of the consumer experience dealing with checkin specials. But I noticed that while the deal exists, it doesn’t show up on the Android Facebook app. Here’s a side by side comparison of what I see on my iPod versus my Android phone.

I’ve seen some deals appear on my Android before, but this isn’t the first one not to show up. Facebook needs to clean up its technology if it wants to seriously play in the location space, especially if it is going to put such a focus on deals and specials. Hmmph.
