  • It does not provide real time update of inbox, friend requests and notifications. How to get those ? – Ashni Goyal Feb 13 '13 at 18:32
  • Yes, that's the saddest part of it, it is pretty limited as they have exposed only a few objects. – Reno Jones Feb 13 '13 at 18:37
  • However as per facebook - 'You can not subscribe to changes on all properties and connections of the User object. Connections to which you can subscribe include: feed, friends, activities, interests, music, books, movies, television, likes, checkins, location, events.' – Reno Jones Feb 13 '13 at 18:38
