Great app but I have a question!

Is there any way to access to gategory (like "family", "known people", ...) news?
[Android Apps and Games] HiM@L:
i have latest version and whenever i try sharing pic using this app it takes me to update status.
[Android Apps and Games] ahmadsamhann:
yes, it shares the status, not the pictures. I was going to say this one lol :D
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
I hope you enjoy! :)

It's in the roadmap.. In the next update I will add this feature!

That's true... I apologize for that, I've missed this functionality in the Test Suite :/ I am working on it right now. I am also adding the link filter, so you can share a link not as message but as a real link on facebook.

Thank you so much guys!

When someone adds multiple photos, I'm only able to view a single one. Is there an option to scroll through each photo thats been added?
[Android Apps and Games] UN5EEN:
Is there any chance you could implement a multi-photo upload feature?

PmR'd Eclipse ROM
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Facebook doesn't give any data about that. I can do it, but it really slow the process, because for each post I have to "find" the photos.

A solution can be something on the detailed view that loads the missing photos.

I will think about it!

It's in the roadmap! Thank you btw
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
1.94 will be released today!!! Changelog in few hours.

And this is a preview of the new Fast icon:
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
I'm not sure what I think of the new icon... It's different, and different is scary
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Why scary? It's just an icon
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
Just being facetious, mostly.... But it does change the feel of the app. Not necessarily a bad thing though.

The new icon looks like a cross between the Flash, and an American basketball team logo lol ... Which is pretty accurate to what the app is about: a lightning fast slamdunk right in Facebook's face XD
[Android Apps and Games] Zahih:
Great new fast icon taomorpheus,

I like it...

:cool:
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
eheh true! :D

Just so you know, your update is close to being a day late in my time zone :P
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
eeheh thx!

The app is online, you can check it! Now it's time to go to bed :D I am exhausted!

Enjoy it :)
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
And with 2 minutes to spare, heh James Bond style timing there XD
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
Lolwut, it's almost as if you styled the logo on my home screen layout! Seriously, it matches absurdly well XD

So far so good, this update is amazing
[Android Apps and Games] jpcdeux:
Any way to disable splash screen? This isn't an iphone
[Android Apps and Games] raymond4:
Is there a way to block those annoying horoscopes on Facebook ?
[Android Apps and Games] chrisrj28:
So I just installed the app and I love it already, FB for android sucks so I bought Friendcaster Pro. It used to be good but now it crashes way too much, and it's no longer attractive.

Thanks and expect a donation, now for a couple of critiques:

The feed blanks out when pulling to refresh, I don't know if that's how it should be or what. I also noticed that the default zoom when viewing a picture is too high, can we scale back to fit to screen?

Otherwise Friendcaster is getting the boot on my phone.
[Android Apps and Games] taz1458:
So far so good!!!!!

[Android Apps and Games] chrisrj28:
Another suggestion I would make is regarding a user profile page, the display of the profile picture and cover photo with the white space around seems like a bit of a waist. A little streamlining in the appearance would be a nice addition.

Also scrolling seems a bit heavy, maybe a little project butter there would be nice, anyway liking it so far and just providing beta feedback
[Android Apps and Games] gruu:
Wohoo, i have been waiting for this one. Thanks for implementing.

Btw. Just curious why is the notifcation service a seperate app ?
[Android Apps and Games] vegaznc:
Looks like I'm not able to "like". When I'm trying I see "please wait" and then nothing else.

Am I the only one?
[Android Apps and Games] jpcdeux:
Anyone have a link to the previous version? Sadly I had to uninstall Fast. Just not what it used to be. Although, notifications are INSTANT
[Android Apps and Games] frenzyboi:
Is your current internet connection slow? It happens to me occasionally.

Why do you want a previous version when a better version is available? As in, what's better in the previous than this?
[Android Apps and Games] vegaznc:
I'm in New Caledonia, my internet connection is always slow :/

I'll try earlier in the day, to se if it works
[Android Apps and Games] mssngr:
Reinstalled fast and now it updates through the playstore again! I am really happy with the new lay out, great work!

Two things I would like to report. If I open a link to say youtube and then return fast force closes. And there is still some Portugese in the Dutch version.
[Android Apps and Games] Maikel S:
I would like to use pinch zoom in the shared pictures of my friends.

When I click in a picture in the news feed, it open with full size, thats not good.

I suggest opening it adjusting to the screen size, and if anyone wants full size, click on it.
[Android Apps and Games] pankycool123:
truly fast thanks
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
good news to hear! BTW I have the icon of fast on the same position on my home screen AHAHAHAH :good:

Do you prefer a white screen while it loads? C'mon on wifi lasts 2 secs, on 3g it's about 5-6 secs. The splashscreen is LIGHT and it runs only ONE time ;)

From facebook site :)

Thank you so much!

About the feedback:

pull to refresh will be better in the next release. I have to change the library that I use, it's simple and not adequate.

The picture zoom was a bit buggy. I have changed some options to give a better zoom. I will do improvements on this too.

Yeah!

What phone do you have?

User profile page is one of the thing that I have to rebuild from zero. It's old and I don't like it.

Thank you for the feedback!

Well, Fast has to be light. If you want extra features, it's better to download them. I don't want to build an app like the Facebook one that is heavy and has a lot of features that are useless!

where this happens ? on 3g or wifi?

Thx

Why?

Try wifi or set Fast in performance mode!

Thank you so much!!!

YOutube links still make this on 1.94? :|

Can you tell me what strings are in portugese?

In the notifications buffon, all the notifications are translated, but in the news feed, some of them arent.

Notifications button in the sidebar is too close to the edge, and it covers the number of notifications of the button.

The groups button is too close to the edge too, and part of it is out of the screen
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
That's a good idea! I will do it :good:

What's your phone? Can you send a screenshot?

About the translations, I know that some of them are not translated, I will find a workaround!
[Android Apps and Games] mssngr:
Hmmm, I just tried to reproduce the FC after opening a link, but it seems to work fine now. Sorry about that.

I added a screen shot of the Portugese string (triar uma foto). Also the notification icon is just outside of the screen (black arrow).
[Android Apps and Games] Letsan:
Amazing

The last version works even better!! I love the app and the fact that notifications are an addon to avoid having a service bundled with the core app.

A small remark though, is that wall posts from friends on other friend's walls are shown as normal status and there's no way to see where they are posted. Is there a way to add this information to the feed ? Like showing "User 1 wrote on User2's wall: [post content]". This is for now the only thing that annoys me from time to time (and the super zoom in pictures, which others already pointed out).

Otherwise, this app is great! Ditched Friendcaster and Facebook, and soon the Facebook bookmark on my browser too :fingers-crossed:

[Android Apps and Games] Zahih:
Hi taomorpheus,

Much better every update...:thumbup:

But you must be forgot to add my request: "about" section to know which version fast

that we've installed.:cool:
[Android Apps and Games] julyprum:
hi dev! is there a way to turn off chat? when i login through the app, it automatically leaves the chat on, even if I turn it off by the webpage.
[Android Apps and Games] dreamland2000:
Something I have noticed in the new build is that when the main app shows the notifications, they are not always recent. Just I had just logged in and found 1 from a day ago, 1 from 12hrs ago, 15mins ago and 1hr ago.

This has happened a couple of times and the times they show are never in time order.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Thx! Pages and groups in your language are a bit longer! So there is less space. I will fix this asap.

I will investigate on that. Maybe there is an hidden information about who wrote on what! Thank you for the idea!

k, thx

yeah... I forgot to enable the visibility of the about section.. sorry! Next update will be there!

That's strange! The chat is enabled only if you open it! What is the exact "path" that you follow?

mm I didn't change the notifications list. This is odd! I will check on that. Thx!
[Android Apps and Games] .xxx.:
I dont get 1 thing.. why am i not able to add a link or upload photo/video when trying to update status using fast? :-/
[Android Apps and Games] design12:
Hi. Just wanted to say that love the app. Just one thing. When I get a new message in my inbox and read it, later on when I open the app it keeps saying that I have a new message. The notification won't go away unless I respond to the message. Is that normal?
[Android Apps and Games] KaosStorm:
I've been trying the new Fast (with the notification addon) and it's working wonderfully. One thing, though, if you could: implement a better way to show the progress of a photo/video uploading. The "Wait please..." window is so non descriptful that you really don't know if it's working or not (as I type this, I'm uploading a picture that is taking FOREVER and it seems it just won't upload at all).

I'll let you know if I ever get to upload something, but so far so good.
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
Perfectly normal, as Facebook doesn't allow it to work properly for some reason ... Taomorpheus can explain it better lol
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
Hey taomorpheus, does the notification add-on not work for messages still?
[Android Apps and Games] KaosStorm:
Just to update: tried to upload a variety of pictures and none got through; is anyone else having that problem? Could you guys confirm if that is indeed an issue?
[Android Apps and Games] Letsan:
That's the way the Facebook mobile site works too, as just loading the message isn't a sign of it being read.

Today Facebook 2.0 arrived and although it's quite fast, it still has those annoying 25MB services doing nothing in the background (even with everything turned off). So Fast stays in my phone :D

I just noticed that the splash screen is shown each time I launch the app, even if I just pressed the Home button and then launched Fast. It shows the splash screen and then displays the news feed. Disabling the auto loading of the news feed doesn't change this.

Also, the picture and link spaces in user profiles aren't working, is this normal ?

Keep up the good work! :D
[Android Apps and Games] hitask:
great option for slow connection

I used Fast for facebook while I was on roaming and was using 2G connection. It allowed me to load facebook fast as well as save on the data charges. Though not excellent, it is more than you would expect. :highfive:
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Have you updated to 1.94?

As other users said, Facebook private message apis gives only READ permission. I can't set the message as read. I am sorry, but I can't do anything!

You are right! The upload it's pretty easy and I have to improve it.

Thank you for the feedback!

Thx! :D

Yeah, for now! Fast Notification is at 0.5, in the next release I will add messages!

Sometimes it happens, I have to improve the upload service. Thank you for using Fast!
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Thank you!! I know that Facebook is improving. But on my N7 the new version uses 85MB of RAM! That's incredible. I hope you will continue to use Fast!! :)

Thank you for sharing your experience!!!
[Android Apps and Games] varun.chitre15:
The app needs lots of work still.

I have found a bunch of glitches and bugs

Bug 1:

Check this screenshot

I am using Simple grey theme. When I touch the screen to scroll through comments I get such screen and when I am done scrolling and move my finger away it is back to normal

This is the glitch only in Simple grey theme

Bug 2:

The my profile section needs lots of work

Check this screenshot

I didn't like the post, link, photo

The another thing I will like to say is the grey theme is a lot incomplete text field one below the other. Doesn't look clean.

a) The action bar on top is white

b) The slide bar too is white

c) The white outlines actually aren't looking good. I don't have a suggestion over this but they are not looking good on simple grey theme.

Now besides the incompleteness, the icon of fast at top left too is spoiling the look because rest icons on the action bar are monochromatic but one with color is odd. I would suggest you to put the icon of Settings-->Fast Notifications tab maybe?

And in latest update you have have replaced long press delete option with trash icon on right corner

But in My profile section it isn't implemented

How I upload photo? When I tap on add photo keyboard pops up.

And lastly another comment for Bug 2 is just long press those 3 text fields i.e add post, add link, add photo. It will ask "Delete post" lol

Bug 3:

Check this screenshot

When I tap the "Link" option I get this. It should open a menubox with browsers right?

Bug 3:

Check this screenshot

Still that glitch not fixed? :( It looks ugly :(

And did you notice one more thing here

I have opened the first tab in the screenshot I.e Background. Now that it is highlighted the text and icon should be black right?

Bug 4:

Suppose I am on start page, then I reside to any fanpage or group, then from there I reside to someone's profile. Now at this point if I tap the fast icon on action bar to open slide bar it takes me back to fanpage, if I tap it again it takes me back to start page and then it works

In short the slidebar opens only on start page and if you are somewhere else it takes you back until you reach start page.

So will you enable it for all pages?

Rest everything is fine. And the app does what its name says :)

I have some suggestions btw

1. Ability to edit post

2. Group management- I kinda need this a lot.

3. A Simple Black theme-Many prefer pure black over grey :)
[Android Apps and Games] Maikel S:
Can you fix a translation in the portuguese brazilian?

In the latest version you corrected the grammar, before it was like "5 hours ago", and you changed to the correct one: "ago 5 hours"

But now, the word ago have another meaning, instead of "atrás", it should be "há".

I alread contribuited in the getlocalization, but it needs to be voted. I hope that you fix it faster.

Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] kodrnusa:
Does this work ok on custom rom? I have i9000 and use Miui.us Jelly bean 4.1 rom

I can't set my own background photo. I set it but it doen't change, it's stil one of the preloaded backgrounds. Also I can't see inbox masages when I pres inbox icon, or pages when I pres pages icon, the space (cloud) is all white. The app is fenomenal, and really fast.

When I upload pictures, I would like to be able to select resolution of the picture.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Lots of work is a big word :P

By the way:

1. No problem, it's just a font color setting that is not present!

2. User profile is under a complete re-factoring. Thank you for your ideas, I need feedback!!

For now you can't upload photo, is just the url! Obviously I will take care of this too!

Strange issue about the long press, lol!

3. It's normal, there is no link or no app to open it.

4. The icon is white because I didn't want to add extra icons. I will figure out something. About the glitch, I don't know why this is happening to you.. I have a small screen device and it doesn't happen. I will add a maximum number of characters in order to fix the glitch

5 (your 4). That's a great IDEA! :highfive: I need to check if is possible to do it everywhere :)

I have some suggestions btw

1. Ability to edit post

the problem here is that you can edit or delete only what is made by third party app. I don't have permissions on posts from official website.

2. Group management- I kinda need this a lot.

true ;)

3. A Simple Black theme-Many prefer pure black over grey

I will add a custom background color. So you can put whatever color you want! :)

Thank you, this kind of issue it's important! I will take care of it :)

I need to test it. I've noticed too. Thank you for the feedback
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Ehi guys! I am working on another project, too (I am not alone this time :D ).

Could you help me in the private beta stage? Here is the topic: http://goo.gl/DPy25

Hi, would it be possible to have it as a widget ?

What I'm looking for is just a facebook notifications widget, I wasn't able to find a working one yet :(
[Android Apps and Games] kodrnusa:
If tagging would be possible, that would be great :)
[Android Apps and Games] vlt96:
WOULD, not possible in posts, Facebook API limitations (but it is in pictures, don't know if possible in fast)
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Notifications widget is in the roadmap! :highfive:

Thx!

Tagging is possible only on photos, due to a limitation by facebook api.

You can tag people using an "hack" that I made on Fast, but it's not true tagging it's the "i am with XXX"

Thank you for the answer!! Yes, for now photo tagging is not possible. It's in the roadmap btw.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Hello guys!

Today I will upload a new update. You will notice a new system for loading news. I have improved the caching system and now it's really really fast!

Changelog:

New fast way to load news feed (less bandwidth usage and instant opening)

removed splashscreen (now you can view it only the first time you open the app and you will never see it again)

Larger photos and pictures from posts (some pics were small due to a bug)

Fixed external sharing feature

Fixed some crashes

Fixes pull to refresh behaviour and bugs
[Android Apps and Games] frenzyboi:
The splashscreen was awesome :crying:
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
it is always present, but now if you launch the app it shows instantly the news feed! So the splashscreen is visible only when you access for the first time
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
Maybe hit the middle ground and put an option in the settings to enable/disable splashscreen?

Some people like it, some don't...

I still think your push notification add-on should be hidden in the app-drawer by the way, otherwise it's a visible app that does nothing.
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
I need to finish to fix a bug in a new feature!! I will upload tomorrow the update, sorry for that but I don't want to release an update with a bug!
[Android Apps and Games] jpcdeux:
Was hoping that splash screen was gone. I'll redownload when it is. If I wanted a splash screen I'd still have an iPhone.
[Android Apps and Games] taz1458:
So seeing a splashscreen once in a blue moon, means what could be the best app ever, will prevent you from using that? Really?

@taomorpheus : yeah.. i have 1.94 version installed but when i select to upload any photo, the app does nothing but give me a pointer to enter text.. :-/
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
:) you are right, it was too much :-\

Today I will show you how fast is the new loading feature!

In the new version this is fixed :) wait tonight for the update!!
[Android Apps and Games] taz1458:
Anyway on the search feature, when we do a search it would bring up people from our friends list first?

I've left the duty to do this on Facebook apis, but the result is all mixed up. So the only way to search your friends is using the friends view. I will find a workaround by my self!
[Android Apps and Games] .xxx.:
Fb api just sucks.. they provide no info as to how to go about aany issue :-/
[Android Apps and Games] dreamland2000:
I have noticed on the latest build that when trying to share from my twitter app the post page loads but won't actually fully post. All in get is the spinning circle advising that it is posting! If that makes sense ha.

[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
How's the bug fixing for the new update coming along?
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
This is fixed in the new update!

I am opening right now the google play dashboard :P
[Android Apps and Games] jpcdeux:
Yep. That and the hideous icon lol
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
hideous?
[Android Apps and Games] jpcdeux:
Haha reminds me of a 1950's radio show. Doesn't fit in as well as the old one. I liked the old one, fit better. Blame it on my mild to moderate Ocd
[Android Apps and Games] JC1988AD:
Well, in one regard it is true that it doesn't follow the latest design trend, which is 2D vector based minimalism á la Microsoft and Google Chrome

This kind of 3D looking design went out of fashion a while ago, but I still like it personally... But then I'm usually behind on graphic design fashion myself lol
[Android Apps and Games] taomorpheus:
Ok the app will ready to be downloaded - updated in 30-40 minutes!

This is a huge step for the core of the app. Please write any issue or idea about it!!

Thank you guys!
