I am developing a Facebook Application that I need to get all the information of user, including mobile phone. However, even this page claims https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/446 that user_mobile_phone permission exists, neither the documentation includes a field of mobile phone number. I am creating a synchronization of contacts, so the phone field is very important.

Why this is blocked? Spamming with mobile is not a very nice spamming approach, it has a cost. They even let e-mails to be given (although you can change it to a cloaking address), but we cannot get phone numbers or addresses.

Is there a way to get it via an app?

EDIT: Even this: http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/447

  • I haven't heard or seen anything about the elusive mobile phone permissions for quite a while, and features like SMS were phased out with the introduction of the Graph API, so I would just assume that a dedicated field for this information is AWOL indefinitely. – James Ford Jul 04 '11 at 08:12
  • Perhaps you might have success with some Regular Expression searching through the other users' fields, looking for phone number formatted text. – James Ford Jul 04 '11 at 08:19
