Difference Between Façade and Adapter Pattern:
Façade Pattern
The Facade pattern is used when a simpler
interface is wanted (and again, could be
implemented the same way by wrapping the
offending classes.)
Wouldn’t say you're using a facade when
the existing interface is incompatible, just
when you need to make it more readable,
less poorly-designed, etc.
Facade defines a new interface
Simplifies multiple complex components
with single interface
Works with multiple components
Control panel is an example
High-level interface
The purpose of a facade is simplicity
A facade is used to encapsulate an entire
layer, and offer some methods to access it
"conveniently"
Facade pattern can be applied at any point
of development

Adapter Pattern
The Adapter design pattern is meant to
'translate' the interface of one or more
classes into an interface that the client
expects to use.
Adapter would translate the calls to the
expected interface into the actual interface
the wrapped classes use.
Whereas Adapter uses an old interface
Provides different interface for an interface
Works with single component
A power adapter is an example
Low-level interface
The purpose of a adapter is interoperability
An adapter is used, where you have two
components that should already work
together, but don't, only because of some
"unimportant" differences in the interface.
It makes things work after they're designed
