Search for images using the amazing TinEye Reverse Image Search engine! (unofficial application)

Conveniently search for images online in any of the following ways:

   * choosing the Android share functionality in any app (gallery, browser, etc.);
   * picking the image from your photos;
   * taking a picture with your camera;
   * choosing a website with the image you're interested in;

and share your results on Facebook, Twitter, via mail or anywhere you want! and best of all, it's free! No ads involved!

I'm still working on the app and I plan to add more features in the future, like the possibility of saving the results. If you have suggestions, or need any help, don't hesitate and contact me at mikebannionsw@gmail.com.


If you appreciate my efforts and like my app, support me by purchasing MB Notifications for Facebook and make me a happy man!

MB Notifications for FB (Free) (v. 1.13.9)

Tutorial: http://mikebannion.altervista.org/tutorial.html

Let's face it, when it comes to Android, whether you like the official Facebook application or not it has one major flaw: no notifications! And this is even more true when you don't use any app for Facebook at all but just the browser, and yet want to keep updated. I frankly hate this: why would you have to check for updates yourself when you could get automatically notified whenever a notification from your Facebook account arrives, just as iPhone users do?

I decided to solve this issue for my own convenience, and so this is where this app chimes in: a lightweight and fast application to get notifications from Facebook, what you decide, at the interval you decide and reported as you decide. Nothing else, just as plain and simple as effective! And the service can be started automatically at boot if you want, so once you install it you can forget about it.


This is the free version of the app, and as such is limited to the following features:

   * get generic notifications, friend requests, event invitations and private messages in the status bar;
   * highest frequency for checking notifications is 20 minutes;
   * open notifications in the official Facebook app, if installed, or in the browser;
   * manual check of new notifications as well, if you want;
   * update your status message.


Buy the paid version to have access to all the exciting features, including:

   * get birthdays, pokes, online friends and removed friends notifications as well;
   * like/comment/share/reshare/RSVP posts and events associated with notifications directly within the app;
   * frequency for checking notifications can be set to as low as 1 minute;
   * open notifications in FriendCaster, Seesmic, Facebook Stream for Android or any other app of your choice;
   * popup notifications as an alternative to status bar notifications;
   * Several different widgets (1x1, 2x1 and 4x1) to control your notifications;
   * open external apps directly when getting notifications rather than passing through this app;
   * configure a night mode during which the app should sleep with you and do nothing;
   * and much more!

Isn't this great? and what's even greater is all these cool features are just a buck away!

Details on all the required permissions are at the end of this page.


IMPORTANT: the app only gets NEW and UNREAD notifications, meaning it won't download, for example, all the notifications you already saw before launching the app or between refreshes.

MB Shortcuts for Facebook (v. 1.0.10)

NOTE: to use this app, you'll need to choose to add a shortcut to your homescreen (just as you would with a widget), the app won't appear in the applications list. You'll need the official Facebook app (at least version 1.6)


Why should you be forced to navigate through tons of different activities in the official Facebook app, if all you want is to quickly go to your profile, to your pictures, to the wall of a friend of yours, to one of your friend's albums or just watch your latest notifications?

This app allows for the creation of quick shortcuts to specific pages of the official app on your homescreen: just add a new shortcut, choose what it should point to and you're done! You can choose among more than 15 different shortcuts, and more will follow (e.g., a picture of a specific friend).

This app is free: however, if you like the app you can support me by getting the "MB Notifications for Facebook" app from the market!


REALLY IMPORTANT: If you have any issue, things don't work as you expected or whatever else, please don't complain on the market since I have no way to help you out there: contact me in any of the following ways, I answer to everyone. The web page http://mikebannion.altervista.org/fbs.html contains useful information related to the application. For any issue not reported there, or if you just want to tell me what you think of the application, feel free to contact me at mikebannionsw@gmail.com.

I decided to solve this issue for my own convenience, and so this is where this app chimes in: a lightweight and fast application to get notifications from Facebook, what you decide, at the interval you decide and reported as you decide. Nothing else, just as plain and simple as effective! Choose between general notifications, private messages, friend requests, events, birthdays, pokes, online friends and lost friendships and decide how to view the notifications:

   * directly in the app, with the ability to like/comment/share/reshare/RSVP;
   * open it in the official Facebook app;
   * open it in FriendCaster (Free or Pro) if installed;
   * open it in Seesmic, if installed;
   * open it in Facebook Stream for Android, if installed;
   * open it in the browser (full view, Touch or WAP version);
   * or just open any other app you have installed (just opening the main activity of app, no custom behaviour)

The service can be started automatically at boot if you want, and a 1x1 widget is provided as well to explicitly request new notifications should you want to. 1x1, 2x1 and 4x1 widgets are also available to show counters of unread notifications. (NOTE: the widgets will NOT work if you move the app to SD). Notifications can be received in the notifications bar and as popup dialogs (by also unlocking and/or waking the screen, if necessary). Details on all the required permissions are at the end of this page.

Other features include: newsfeed, walls, pages, groups, checkin, photo/video upload and much more!

IMPORTANT: the app only gets NEW and UNREAD notifications, meaning it won't download, for example, all the notifications you already saw before launching the app or between refreshes.
