Announce game played on facebook for ios - iphone

I have seen on my facebook feed announcements saying that so-an-so played this game.
And I'm wondering, is this just a regular post to someones wall that the app makes when the user plays this game? Or is it some other sort of announcement when a user registers their game with facebook by logging in?
Thanks!

http://developers.facebook.com/docs/mobile/ios/build/ Step 5 is an option or you get publish_actions permission from app users and then you can publish to their walls through the app.

Unity Facebook SDK appInvite not showing notifications

I'm implementing a game which features inviting your Facebook friends to your app using the Facebook SDK.
The code I'm using is:
FB.Mobile.AppInvite (new System.Uri(appLink), null, callback);
The app link is the proper one setup in the facebook page of the app.
The problem is this: the user doesn't receive a notification inside the FB app to install my game. Instead, you have to go to the Facebook App -> Apps -> App invites and it appears there. In the Facebook docs it says the user should receive a notification to invite.
What is the issue here?
PS: the app is not live yet, but the friends that are invited are set as testers.

How to invite Facebook friends to my mobile app using custom UI?

I've seen this question.
Invite Facebook friends to my iOS app that is not a game with custom UI
I'm developing a game app but has no Canvas, so I can't use invitable_friends API either.
Is it still impossible?
It looks like Instagram is doing this, but how do they make it possible?
Anyone know the solution ?

Inviting friends to join your game room in Photon Unity Networking

Hi I have an online multiplayer game running. I can find random opponents and play with them. I am using photon unity networking for this purpose. I want to create a system in which a user can invite his facebook friends who have the game and they could play with each other. I know abt Facebook sdk and how to send requests with it but i want to send push notifications directly to the app instead of facebook and when the user clicks the notification it should open the and user should be redirected to the gameroom. How would i be able to achieve that

How should my users invite their Facebook friends to use my web app?

We have an app where users interact in small private groups. We want to allow our users to invite their Facebook friends into a group. We previously posted a private link on a friend's timeline but Facebook disabled that last week: https://developers.facebook.com/roadmap/#february-2013
The apprequest dialog will not work as it is limited only to canvas and mobile applications:
Requests are only available for Desktop Canvas, iOS and Android apps. Accepting a request on Canvas will direct the user to the Canvas Page URL of the app that sent the Request. For native mobile apps, accepting the request will direct the user to the app on their device if installed or to the appropriate location (Apple App Store or Google Play) to download the app otherwise.

I was thinking of using Facebook Open Graph and creating an action and mention tagging, but that seems like a hack, and I dont think engagement will be as high.
What do you think the best way to do this is?
Thanks!
Use Send to invite them in a private message.

Share info on friends timeline (Facebook sdk, iPhone)

I would like to give the users of my iphone app the option to recommend things to their friends on facebook. Like a button in the app that says: "Share this with your friend". Is this possible?
Thanks
Yes, You can share any message from iPhone application. You can use facebook graph API for sharing message to facebook.
