I know this is an old question, but if you want to push changes in facebook to somewhere it might be a good idea to look into the Facebook Realtime Updates API. As it notifies directly of any changes in facebook you've subscribed to.

Since you can't have an iOS app that continuously checks Facebook in the background and since you can't bring Facebook to send a push notification to your app, you would have to set up a web server that continuously polls Facebook for changes and then sends a push notification to the iOS device when it detects a change.
