Add the permission: friends_location in your login code.

Note that:

  1. API for getting the friends location: /me/friends?fields=location,name; and you're calling for default: /me/friends

  2. You'll get the location as an object:

    "location": {
   "id": "130646063637019", 
   "name": "Noida, India"
},

    And you'll not get location for all the friends of-course (due to their privacy settings).

  • @Sahil Mittal can you help me? What is the reason for that: from one user I get field "location" in result from Facebook (my example is location = { id = 107677462599905; name = "Minsk, Belarus"; }; but from other users I don't receive this field, but both of them have current location in Facebook profile. – Alexander Yakovlev May 26 '14 at 08:00
  • De-authorize that user by removing the app from the settings and then try again! – Sahil Mittal May 28 '14 at 09:02
