If you are having hard time following Facebook posts, tweets, youtube videos, blog posts and news articles, you can now download Socialife application from Sony to your Android smartphone and have all those updates accumulated in one place. Till now, Socialife was available only for Sony devices and today, this restriction is lifted, giving every Android smartphone user a chance to give this a try. Do note that to install Socialife, your Android smartphone should have 4.1 or higher version of Android. This app is also made available for Windows users and can be downloaded from Microsoft’s application store. Unfortunately, for tablets, only Xperia branded tablets can have access to Socialife.

Users can rear FIFA official news, check photos and other data from the world cup coverage. Users can bookmark favorite facebook/twitter posts and news articles, save the data to the cloud, support for widget was added few months ago.
