Invite Facebook friends into my app

Question

I'm writing an entertainment application (a RESTful application written in Android). I'd like to show Facebook friends and invite them into my app. Now I loaded FB friends successfully. What will I do the next? Please give me an idea.

(I guess I should send an invitation email for them. Is it right?)

Answer 1

Please take a look into the following documentation: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/mobile/android/build/

And look for Request Dialog see https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/requests/

Those will make you're life easy you just have to select friends!

Answer 2

My ideas:

• Call Facebook API to post your app's download link to your friends's wall.
• Send an SMS or email if you have those infomations.
• Create an app on Facebook. Then send an app request to your friends. Your friends will receive notification on Facebook. (I am currently using this to invite friend to my app)
