It’s been getting rave reviews in the US (despite some comparisons to Flipboard).
The Facebook Paper standalone App was released for IOS in the US this month and is yet unavailable in Ireland.
However, the tech wizards at 256 Media have already had more than a sneak peek. Infact we’ve downloaded it to our iPhones and so far are very impressed with the user experience.
We definitely see a use for Facebook Paper for anyone in marketing who creates, curates and distributes content.

Once you've followed the below steps and installed the App a helpful video loads automatically to talk you through the features of the Facebook Paper.
