Facebook messenger android People menu red circle with 1 - facebook

I am using Facebook messenger on Android. On the initial screen when I open Messenger there are the "Chats" and "People" menus. The "People" menu has a red circle with a 1 inside it. Also at the top right hand side of the screen there is the icon that has a + sign and a person icon. This also has a red circle with a 1 in it. When I click this icon, the "Add Contacts" screen opens.
On this screen there are two lists of people. There is the regular list of "Suggested People". Above this list is a new list of "Updates". This "Updates" list shows one person that I recently interacted with, but am not Facebook friends with.
I don't see any obvious action that Facebook Messenger is prompting me to take with regard to this one person to make the "red circle with the 1 in it" go away. Is it saying that it's requirng me to become Facebook friends with this person, in order to make the "red circle with a 1 in it" go away?

I had the same issue, didn't foun a solution, but I uninstalled and installed the app again - it helped :)

In a windows 8 app, when clicking on a group, how to show a page that has clickable tiles

I have a windows 8 grid app, however, when I click on a group, I don't want the GroupDetailPage. Instead, I need a page that has multiple tiles which are clickable links.
Something similar to the app store, when you click a particular group, say Games, you get all the games, arranged in a grid and it is a clickable link.
Any help is very much appreciated.
thanks in advance
You could modify the existing GroupDetailPage removing the content about the group, and leaving just the list of items. Or you could modify the destination of the group heading click to a completely new page that you generate.
Are you using C#/XAML, HTML5/JS?
If you are looking to mimic tile animations and display the MetroJS library is pretty cool:

Timeline & iFrame

Can anybody guide about how
does the new FB timeline incorporate the iframe for its pages.
Or is there any new stuffs coming in to replace these stufs?
The way you create and display your iFrame will be the same, except for a size change.
The new iFrame will be 810px wide, instead of 520px - existing tabs (apps) that are set to 520px will just be centered on the page, so they aren't "broken." Giving us 290 extra pixels is great!
You can no longer set a tab as "default landing page". Instead, users always see the main Timeline view and have to actively click through to custom apps.
To edit which apps you display, click the drop-down icon to the right of the tiles, click the ‘+’ button to import your custom apps, and then hover over them and click the pencil to swap them around.
If you have a contest or something on a tab which you would have wanted set as the "default landing page", you can create a post on your page which has a few sentences advertising such, with a link to the tab. You can then "pin" this post to the top of your page, so it will be the first thing users read. "Pinning" and "starring" on your Page act exactly like they do on your personal timeline.
Here's a good explanation of all changes

Admob's Adchoices to open in Safari instead of a webview

I am guessing this is a new type of ad for Admob.
Before, every time I click an ad returned by Admob, it opens the app store or a link in safari. But now, if I click on an ad that has the blue arrow on the right, it just shows a webview with the link. I am wondering if this can be avoided. I want the link to directly open in safari whenever I click the blue arrow. I noticed that the number of clicks for my ads have significantly decreased since this kind of ad appeared. So I'm thinking this may be related to the ad not opening in a browser.
Thank you very much for your help.

How to add a link to a website with a button and get back to the app

I was wondering how to add a link to a website so that when the user taps on a button, he will be taken to that webpage, but can then hit an x in the top left corner or hit the home button and then it will take them back to their app. I want it to be like iad where it doesn't close your app when you click on that link.
You can implement your own UIWebView in your app which will display the link, and handle all of the navigation. There are many tutorials on the web. Hope that Helps!

How to see all the people that clicked Like?

Is there a way to see who clicked on the FACEBOOK Like BUTTON?
In the settings box of http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like I can check the Show faces option, but then I can see just who of my friends clicked the Like button but I want to see all the people that clicked Like.
Is there any option?
show_faces only shows the faces of your friends that have liked the same page/object. It will not show the faces of non-friends who have liked the object/page.
