Here what Facebook had to say about Facebook Home

With Home, everything on your phone gets friendlier. From the moment you turn it on, you see a steady stream of friends’ posts and photos. Upfront notifications and quick access to your essentials mean you’ll never miss a moment. And you can keep chatting with friends, even when you’re using other apps.

It’s all part of Facebook Home—there’s no other phone, app or operating system like it.
