Facebook and Facebook Home for Android received a significant update today (though the update is, you guessed it, on a staged rollout), adding a few significant features. The Facebook app now allows insertion of multiple photos into chat messages (previously it allowed only one per message), and on-the-fly tuning of your post sharing settings - something many people are likely to enjoy.

Facebook home has a brand-new 'favorites tray' area in the launcher, allowing you keep a few select apps handy on your homescreen by dragging them into the tray area. The Facebook Home update is included in the main Facebook update, so Facebook Home will not have to be updated separately. Unfortunately, there are no screenshots of these new features yet, so you'll have to hold tight until the update goes out on a wide basis. Here's the full changelog:

What's in this version:

• Easily change who can see something you've shared

• Send multiple photos in a single message—just tap the +

• Stability and memory improvements

New if you're using Facebook Home:

• Customize your app launcher by dragging the apps you use most to a new favorites tray

• Bug fixes
