Thanks man for all you effort
[Android Apps and Games] crnkoj:
Negative user experience because of a proper name, such jokes. They are just forcing anyone using the name facebook to drop it because they loose too many users for their app like this...

Btw any functionality improvement possible yet?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Guys I have uploaded a small update just to try to bypass all the new limitations made by facebook. They are making a real mess...
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Thanks brother
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
As you can see I have followed your advices, feel free to share your ideas!

Btw, how are you?
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Doing as well as can be brother.

Still under doctors care but getting help. :)
[Android Apps and Games] luckedxd:
thanks
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
New FB tab rules. Check it out.

Perfect mixture
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Hi guys!

Facebook has decided to block all my requests to gain the access to the permissions.. so I updated to app to follow their rules. That's really sad, I hope they will change their mind.:(

Anyway I am building a new messenger app, tomorrow I will give you more info!
[Android Apps and Games] astrosplatt:
Gee, Facebook being a pain in the butt? Surprise surprise.
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Last update is fantastic with a few minor bugs.

Still the best replacement you can use. Thanks for the update brother.
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
Isn't this now the only replacement left? I can't see any of the others on the play store any more...

Is this the Web view version? It's not native I think.
[Android Apps and Games] Lowresolution:
How to play videos inside the app ?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Facebook is sending emails with big lists of apps that they are tring to remove from the market. THey use a company to do that. It's crazy, that's not freedom, it's just bull****.

Anyway I managed to fix a lot of issues with them, there is always a solution, never give up.

A lot of features now are web because of the new rules, api and bad communication with devs. :/

The webview has a new plugin to show full screen a video.
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Awesome updates brother.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Fast 3.0

Hey Guys!!! It was a long pause from my last post, anyway I am here to present my latest update, Fast 3.0!!

As you well know, Facebook put me and a lot of devs in a corner and tried to close all third party apps. I am still here, Fast it's still alive!

I have managed to find a way to still support some features, with this update it will be possible to select favorite pages and get their feeds in one view. Pretty nice, uh?

You can download right now the update, PRO version will come in 2 days too.

Changelog:

- New Favorites tab! Now you can add your favorites pages and access to the feed on the main view.

- New Main Tab, now there 5 icons, the first one to view your feed, the second one to access to Facebook website, the third one to your favorites, the fourth one for private messages and the last one for notifications.

- Improved status update features

- Improved stability and perfomance

- Reduced apk size
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Sounds awesome. Can't wait for the Pro version. Thanks brother.
[Android Apps and Games] N3RO815:
No update for the pro version?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
It's out! I am having some issues with the permissions on facebook, I hope they will reply to me the next week!
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Hey guys, Facebook has accepted the new permissions for Fast Pro, let me know if it works!
[Android Apps and Games] chrisrj28:
Any plans to update this with Material UI?
[Android Apps and Games] sbk_hbk:
I ve used this application long timr ago. I would say its one of de fastest fb app ever i was satisfied with. But there is one facility which i was looking for which is not done yet.

I couldn't tag my friends in comment. Do you thing this feature ll ever be implemented?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
That's tricky because some UI elements are already material, others not! I don't know what I will update because of facebook restrictions. I will think about it.

Friends tagging is my dream too. I am sorry but facebook has no plans to open its API... thank you for using fast!
[Android Apps and Games] webdevray:
I am not a fan of updates. :(
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
I am. Some features I liked use to be in here but damn Facebook keeps restricting us.
[Android Apps and Games] Mj2789:
I dont know whether this has been asked here or not, but can we use official fb app along with this one?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
I am not a fan of Facebook API updates :(

Yep, always trying to find new ways to jump these restrictions. Btw, Facebook accepted the permissions to post on pages and groups on Fast, but not on Fast pro. I don't know why, the motivation it's ambiguous.

Of course! The latest versions are not connected to main app if you have it. So you can have a login on facebook and others on Fast.
[Android Apps and Games] thetupacshow:
I installed this official FB app and this one too (2 differenti accounts): they both work perfectly... I've alsob uninstalled the Messenger app and installed THIS fantastico app. Only 1 issue: when I receive a chat messagge on my fastFF account I don't get the notification on the status bar.The official facebook app instead shows the notification... What can I do?
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Guess I can use both.

Tried reaching you on the usual but current ROM fc. Go figure.

Looking for a fix.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Hi, Fast can't send a notification if there is one because there are no API on the faebook side. They have blocked everything.

What's the Rom? :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] thetupacshow:
I don't know what APIs are but I understand it's something that can't depend on you... If one day the notification will be active on your app let us know!!

Anyway I still use FastFF, thank for the help :)
[Android Apps and Games] BoxFun:
Thanks you
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Vanir. Everything else is perfect.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
New small update guys!

Here the changelog:

Improvements in the Favorites tab! Add your favorites pages and access to the feed on the main view.

Photo uploads improvements

New user interface elements

Faster and better web view management

Fixed some bugs thanks to the community feedbacks!
[Android Apps and Games] Zenns:
Application is quite fast tbh, but I feel that you can make improvement to it. It seems like it is emulating the mobile web over here, also when you view a photo it gets quite small to be honest unlike in the original facebook application when you can pitch and zoom in etc, I feel that this is the only improvement that is needed also please remove the ads.
[Android Apps and Games] augustinlibert:
looking forward for the next upcoming version... :)
[Android Apps and Games] scottjb:
You can remove the ads by purchasing the pro version.

Hello,

I would like to translate your Google Play APP-Description into:

[Android Apps and Games] N3RO815:
Hi. What's about updating the Pro Version?
[Android Apps and Games] sebarkh:
And Pro is still 3.0

Wysłane z mojego SM-G928F przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Pro version is on the market.
[Android Apps and Games] N3RO815:
I know that and I asked about updating the Pro Version! The free is newer than the pro.

Free is 3.1.1 and Pro is 3.0
[Android Apps and Games] scottjb:
The free version is always updated before the pro version. He will get to it.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Fast was a complete native app for facebook, but due to their API updates they killed a lot of features and I had to replace them with a web view. I hope that something will change. I will take a look to low res pictures, thx.

Thank you for the support!

Thank you so much, I will send you the complete description asap.

Thank you for understanding :)

I reply to all:

The PRO version is a different app on facebook api, so I have to wait more time to get approval on the facebook platform. For now Facebook team has rejected the pro version and accepted the free. I hope next week everything will be ok.
[Android Apps and Games] N3RO815:
Any news about the pro?
[Android Apps and Games] dragontology:
Possible solution: Discontinue separate Pro version, change Pro version into Pro Unlocker for free version. Pro users get update reducing the app to <100KB, then they just download the Free version. One version going forward, and Pro purchasers don't lose their paid status, only have to configure the app again (free version).
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
TODAY!!!!!! They finally accepted the permissions.

That's a good idea, but the only thing that blocks me is the google play services implementation. Fast pro is really light because it has no external libraries and for now I want to keep it in this way.

The delay was because of a facebook review fault.
[Android Apps and Games] neuralodd:
very useful... thanks
[Android Apps and Games] teslapolaris:
only text were displayed.

Hi, I've been using Fast for Facebook on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 for the pass few months and having some issues with it on and off. Some times it work normally but sometimes, only text were displayed. I've attached some screenshot for reference. I believe the problem does not affect Fast alone as I've tested it on Tinfoil and a few other similar apps. However, this does not happen on the official Facebook app or Facebook Lite. I've tested Fast on my tablet and it's working well. I've even tried searching in XDA forum and googling for it but couldn't find any answers.

Maybe someone in this forum has encounter this problem before and got it resolved. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Hello, thank you for the feedback!

Have you tried using a different connection? Where are you from? Sometimes the trasmission of data get something corrupted and the display is only text.

Have you tried using a proxy?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Fast pro on google play. New permissions for admins to post on pages and groups and new marshmallow SDK!
[Android Apps and Games] teslapolaris:
Hi, Thanks for replying. I'm from Singapore and have tried both Wifi and phone data connection. Both result are the same. The problem used to be quite intermittent initially about a month ago but it's all text nowadays. Was forced to use official Facebook app in order to access Facebook. This problem also occurs on Chrome, Firefox, Opera etc on the phone. Funny thing is I don't have this problem on tablet. I'm wondering whether it could be due to any phone problem. I would love to test it out but have no idea how to go about it.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] admuerte:
Sorry guys, could someone point my noise, where can i find an answer for that in this app news feed is like browser.

P. S. Search function on xda app not working for me. Pls be polite and help me
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Are you asking why it looks like a browser? If so the answer is Facebook is blocking 3rd party APIs and this is the best workaround to get full functionality with the app. It's a great workaround IMO.
[Android Apps and Games] tuxdude143:
To you it may be a great workaround but to other people like myself we want an actual app. Not the slow arse facebook website wrapped up in another app.

Now I know due to facebook blocking 3rd party apis you can't really do that easy but for goodness sake I just wish that some people would try put in the effort to make a proper alternative to the official facebook app that ISN'T just the facebook mobile website wrapped up in a standalone app. Again though part of the blame for this falls onto facebook for being dicks about 3rd party applications.

That's just my 2 cents on the whole thing. I mean if you really can't make a facebook app in any other way due to api issues then I'd understand that.
[Android Apps and Games] rootlinux:
Actually this work around was partly my idea. If you look in the Play store you will no longer find any fully stand alone facebook apps. Blame facebook not this dev. He put in countless hours to make this app great. Better than the official, just to have facebook block it for their own selfish reasons.

You obviously don't like the app so don't use it. But bashing this dev that was here day after day fixing every issue I tested daily, just shows a lack of due respect. This app may change if facebook ever opens their APIs again but I still stand by this dev. I was here with him testing and giving ideas while facebook kept making it harder.
[Android Apps and Games] kankam:
Wow! How utterly unfair. You've done nothing yourself, but whinge at those making an effort. It's a better show of decorum to keep quiet if you've nothing positive or encouraging to say to devs like the OP who spend their own time trying to help others. You obviously know s/he's done what's possible under the circumstances, but still want to criticise because somehow it makes you feel better about yourself, I guess.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Hey guys!!! I have worked a lot on the new update. There are many new things and improvements.

Fast 3.2 will be available in 2 hours!!!!!:victory:

Changelog:

Added Fast Hub! A notification where you can open directly status update, notifications and private messages view.

Improved status update feature with better support for photos.

Support for Marshmallow new permission system.

Improved comment system and removed the comment bar in favor of floating action button.

New menu for blue and orange theme.

Fixed the profile feed, now it shows again the photos.

Now Marshmallow (android 6.0) is 100% supported.

Fixed some bugs with video player and video-photo downloads.

Improved favorites manager.

Improved stability.

Thank you so much for the support! I have read your replies above and I felt that you have covered very well what it was right to say. Thanks again :)
[Android Apps and Games] tornido067:
i cant believe this app man ..really thx! so smooth and it is really small..i have nothing to say but why i have a space in the down side of screen ? a grey space i mean
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Thank you man! Can u send a screenshot please? :D
[Android Apps and Games] tornido067:
ok bro i will send i a screenshot : D when i get back to home...btw i started to get a lot of FCs ..no certain action when it stops working ..but i have noticed that it is stopping every 7-8 minutes
[Android Apps and Games] tornido067:
man i can add a video to my timeline (storyline) but in my page or group there is only add a photo (i cant post videos) there is no such an option :(
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
A new update is coming, hoping to fix some issues!!

A better video upload feature will come during this month (not the next update). :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Martan404:
This looks clean as hell. I'm not really that much for Facebook but this looks like a great alternative when I do need to use it. Having the original Facebook app that takes 250mb+ on my phone feels a bit unnecessary.

Thanks! Gonna download it now.
[Android Apps and Games] elderonj:
amazing, thanks you
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
? Why? :D
[Android Apps and Games] Lord Takyon:
Will do in a bit mate. Perhaps it is because of the screen res etc of the XperiaS.

Also, just noticed double tap to zoom pics doesn't work, but pinch and zoom is fine.

Keep up the good work ;-)

Suggestion - add photo download.
[Android Apps and Games] ayysir:
Great app, only bug for me atm is fc when I try to comment on someones status
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Thx for the feedback, I will improve for sure layouts for high dpi screens. :D

Great idea! I will do it in 1.5 :)

Thanks

I will investigate on that. Thanks a lot.

I was going to say that Monday was a extended Holiday, but I think it's only for Brazil.

And I am switching devices somewhere around this or next week, but it's still important to make it compatible with the biggest number of devices possible. Well, good luck.

[Android Apps and Games] dragontology:
I tried it again, from 1.36 which I did not care for for a few reasons. My main gripe was that the variable spacing between news feed items infuriated my OCD. Now it's the colors of the dividers. I see red, blue, and magenta?/purple?. But no real pattern as to which items get which colors. Maybe if friends got blue, Pages got red, and friends posting from apps (including things like Status Shuffle) would get the purple (blue mixed with red). I don't know. Feels random. But if that is the design you're aiming for, a kind of haphazard chaos, my gripe is minor and it's just a difference in opinion. ;)

I also had an issue with text not showing up. It does seem to have better contrast on different themes. They're all perfectly viewable now.

I still think the toolbars should be themed, or at least darkened. They stick out too much. If the color or image extended to the toolbars, and the icons had a drop shadow of the inverse of the color beneath them, they would always stand out. I think there's a color in PNG files for this. I know there's the transparent color, but I was sure there was one that does inverse. The bottom toolbar is much better now, though.
[Android Apps and Games] noobwithgalaxyy:
Incompatible.. where can i get an apk from? to try if it works :)
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
It italy too.. maybe not in US.

By the way, until a response I can't do anything :/

Please check my signature everything is there for download

Lol, it's not random, mate! :D

1) Red means status update

2) Violet means photo-picture

3) Green means video

4) Light blue means shared stuff such link - everything else :D

In the future updates there will be new themes ;)

Thx for the feedback.
