(Credit: Facebook) Facebook is a giant on feature phones, the company announced on Sunday. The social network's platform, Facebook for Every Phone, now has over 100 million monthly users, the company confirmed. The app, which launched in 2011, allows users to access their News Feed, Messenger, and Photos, and allows new users to sign up and find friends. When Facebook went public last year, shareholders grew increasingly concerned with the company's mobile efforts, saying that they weren't as strong as hoped. Over the last several months, however, Facebook has turned its attention to mobile and its business there is skyrocketing. Much of the focus, however, centers on smartphones. That the company is doing that well with feature phones, as well, is even more good news for shareholders.
