by Cheuk Seto 2/28 - another update. None of the problems below were fixed. Now one more: loading items on news feed will make the app freeze, and killing it to return to the app won't help.
Surely the updates that the app receives every other week is a good thing. But every time it makes changes that you DO see, are ones that are the most annoying and not very constructive. The last change they made was moved Messenger OUT of the Facebook app itself, and then have to make you download a separate app to use the same function. That's not a good experience and very frustrating. There is also a bug that seems to be unnoticed ever since the app allows videos to be played inline in the feeds. When you have a video playing, if you are also playing music, the app will automatically turn down the volume of your own music, so you can hear the audio from the video. This is fine, if the app is smart enough to give me back my music to normal volume afterwards, but it doesn't, and will only resume normal after killing the app. For some reasons, apps like Instagram and whatsapp (both of which are now under the Facebook empire) do multimedia sharing and messaging better. Why not combine all three, or just let the Facebook app does its best and only job - news feed.
by Sourpissedoanshfh It's getting to the point where I think that te creators of the Facebook app do not care about the comments of its actual users. I have read a lot of the reviews since your current update and no one was happy I am also not happy. This is the most frustrating app I have ever downloaded I thank you thank you thst it's free but if you're going to offer an app that's free you shouldn't advertise that it's going to be a great app like you do. It freezes it crashes I can't ehardly ever look at an article or a page that I like without the app crashing kicking me out and God for bid I go back to my newsfeed to try to look and find the same article that I was previously reading because now my Facebook has done upload 10,000 other things and status updates that were from yesterday you need to get this problem fixed and according to all of the other users I'm not the only person that feels this way I am pretty sure by your current review status that you're going to be losing a lot of Facebook app users are use my Facebook for my mini iPad as well as my Moto X phone and have many problems on my on my phone but I have Majority of my problems on my iPad by MorbidEloquence After several attempts at accessing my Facebook without any luck, I have begun to loose hope. My fingernails scratch at "Continue as Morbid_Eloquence?" button with aimless desperation as it's appearance feels like the bars of a prison. The spinning asterisk indicating the app's attempted progress has begun mocking me, or at least I imagine it is, spinning in antagonizing hatred much like the cogs of an old broken clock... It screams to me, "keep trying! I swear this app works and very soon you will be frolicking in the sunlight of your friend's incessant complaints of first world life and sharing pictures of relationship goals without the intention of applying them in real life! Freedom awaits!" But still to no avail. I feel there may be no escape from the login screen... And the memory of me will fade into history as my Facebook sits unread like so many books in the apartments of eccentric recluses. All that will remain of me is the stench of the once intentional exploration of socializing, now mentally beaten into isolation. Why Facebook app... Why.
