So now that the official app has chat heads I would like to get push notifications for messages on the official Facebook app instead of the separate message app. Is that possible? I've tried deleting the app, and many other things without success. I get notifications for everything but not for messages. It's kinda of stupid having both apps since the official Facebook app does everything and has new stuff.
 
If what you mean is what I think you mean (FB messages coming up as notifications) try this.

On the Facebook App swipe left to get the menu, then scroll down to account settings. Notifications is in there.

If this isn't what you meant, sorry.
 
Found the problem for this, you can't have the Facebook app logged in on both the iPhone at iPad. I log out of the iPad and I instantly get notifications on iPhone for messages, as soon as I log back in, they stopped working ONLY for messages.
