It just brings me to the lovemyphilly wall?
Does touch.facebook support Facebook Pages?
mobile versions of websites are usually stripped down to not include extra things like this.
going to the mobile version of the site at http://m.facebook.com/LoveMyPhilly?sk=app_7146470109, it instantly takes you to the wall. doesnt look like its accessable

Quick question. I've created a number of iframe apps for Facebook which work fine on PC, Mac etc. But not on mobile devices. The icon just doesn't show when you visit the page. I assumed this was because I'd not defined a mobile site URL. I've now done this, but I'm still not seeing an icon. Am I missing the point?
Thanks.
what icon do you mean? if you defined your mobile site url correctly, your app shows up in the search field. if you're talking about a page tab, it's not possible at all. the mobile native apps don't support this. but you can always link to your mobile site url in newsfeed!
On my client's Fanpage, a third party app is running for a contest. How can I make this FB contest page available on mobile? I read the answer here:

Facebook SDK : Page Tab App returns not found in mobile Facebook App
I do not understand it clearly.
Is the query parameter ?ref-ts which we have to add at the end of URL?
What does it mean by "It helps in the browser but not the app itself."?
Will it help to see the App on mobile and click on it to go to the contest page on FB?
Also, I found this answer:
Works as advertised! Thank you. I was getting 404, but simply adding
ref=ts in my redirect URLs (I force users to use my app as a page tab)
fixed it! – Guillaume Boudreau
under the first link above but what is forcing users to use app as a page tab?
How can I set App as a page tab?
little bit confused.
I searched the web vigorously but did not get any clear explanation.
My observations about this issue:
Seems like it's an ANDROID issue, Work OK on iPhone's
Work with the link redirection services like Bit.ly (where the bit.ly link included the ref=ts)
I sent an email to Facebook for ANDROID developers.
Hi,
my iPhone's user colleagues can open links to page tab app with ref=ts
parameters but on Android we can't ;-(
The only way we've been able to do it is when the link to the app is
under a bit.ly redirection link
The problem is only when the links are open through the Facebook App.
Thanks

You can access to your app using the next link https://apps.facebook.com/YOUR-APP-ID
In this way, you can access from a desktop or a mobile with no problem.
Can this be true, or am I missing something, big time? It seems there's no way to access a Facebook app's profile page on the Facebook mobile site (m.facebook.com)?
I thought I wouldn't need to create a separate fan page for my app now that the app's profile page kind of looks and feels like a regular fan page. But if it's not accessible in Facebook mobile, then it's no use to me whatsoever - the thing is, I'm developing a native iPhone app, and the Facebook app is just for sharing the results, promoting and building fanbase - in other words I need a "Visit app's Facebook page" button in my iPhone app, and obviously the link should open in m.facebook.com, not the full www.facebook.com site.
I have no problem opening regular fan pages in Facebook mobile on my iPhone, or opening app's profile pages in the regular Facebook site. But I can't seem to be able to access any app's profile page in Facebook mobile. Please tell me I'm just dumb and there's of course a way to do this.
Here's a few ways that I was able to make it work.
Named pages
m.facebook.com/coke
m.facebook.com/facebook
m.facebook.com/yupiq
Applications
m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=150980384961454
Does that solve it for you?
EDIT:
I was unable to get the m.facebook.com/{id} to work for anything.
Up until about 2 weeks ago, if you visited a Facebook Fan Page on an Iphone through safari (not the Facebook App), it brought you to the normal internet version of the site. This made it very easy to have control over what people saw first when they visited the page by creating an app and then specifying the app related tab (page) as the default landing page for users.
In this way you could include a "like / reveal" (Fan Gate) page and have the same type of incentive and offer translate directly to the iphone viewers as it had been seen on the internet using a computer. (still not sure how it looks on Android)
Since they added the redirect that forwards mobile browsers to their m.facebook.com page, if you try going to a specific fan page, it brings you to the "Wall" as the default and doesn't seem to even show the special tabs you created through an app -completely ignoring what ever defaults you had set up in the app!
Has anybody figured out a way to have a mobile browser pay attention to the default page named in the app or somehow disable the mobile browser redirect so it goes to the standard page. This is very important for using with QR codes, since you used to just link the QR directly to the fanpage address and it worked pefect, but now simply leaves the people a little confused about the offer you were promoting.
Thanks for any help on this!!!!!
I'm creating a facebook page for my application and I want it readable on mobile safari for iPhone, but the normal facebook pages don't show up properly (see attached image) The wall, info, discussion pages don't show up.
I know I can prepend m.facebook to a url to make it the mobile version, but what about the iphone version? touch.facebook seems to redirect to facebook login.
