For me this app works great with dalvik. Haven't tested it with art. Some issues/ideas i've noticed:

- Photo sharing doesn't work.

- Full screen fb videos don't work.

- "People" icon moves to notifications, not contacts, as it probably should.

- 3-dot menu icon is dark. Shoudn't be white, as others?

- You could place a share status circular button at the bottom corner as in Google+ and other matherial design apps. If possible.

- Message icon could be always visible, not only in landscape mode.

- Without the shadow, top blue bar could "connect" with Facebook website bar and look like a thick single one.

- Removing orange border around active website elements would be great, but i think it's impossible.

- Pull to refresh feature would be great.

is there a way to look at other in messages or am i missing it.

love the app so far. so much better then the facebook app the are pushing on people

thanks again

I found it.... never mind

[Android Apps and Games] hanifh:
excellent app! please make the top navigation bar persistent so that one doesnt have to scroll all the way to the top to cycle through the various tabs.
[Android Apps and Games] joesgarage:
yes it will

I'm using it on a Samsung tab 4 sm t530

Posting image in comment

I'm using this app both in last stable version and in beta one, both on smartphone and on tablet. I'm trying to upload picture in comments without success. There's the button but pushing if nothing happen. Could you solve this little issue? One more request, like some other, is the persistent bar on top. Thanks for your precious work
[Android Apps and Games] brunooliveira:
Cool!

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the official FB app either, so it's great to see that there are alternatives out there. Would it in theory be possible to incorporate facebook chat on it? I haven't looked into it but I imagine the FB chat protocol must be XMPP or some other standard. But maybe I'm wrong, maybe it's proprietary and impossible to implement :) Any plans in this regard?

Hey this is great screw all the permissions and background processes of the official app. This is sweet.

One issue, it does not allow me to upload pictures. There is no "share to Facebook" in the gallery which I expected and don't care about, but within the 1.8 app it does nothing g when I click the add photo button.

S4 running 5.0 lollipop
[Android Apps and Games] draskome:
This is an issue that is probably to hard to fix, so for now if you need to upload pictures, the only sollution is to use Facebook within some browser.

Seems to me that development of this usefull app is finished

So it seems like I have to say something. I haven't developed for a while, yes but this project is not dead. It's paused. I am developing because it makes fun and not because I have to. I enjoyed this project and you guys are awesome but don't get me wrong. I am not developing when there is no motivation/fun. Please don't post the same issue over and over again. I know some things are not working. Seems like some people think I owe them something. This is a small project I first started for myself. I think many of you boys and girls enjoyed this app. Maybe I'll continue this project in the future but for now I have other things to do.

Stay funky!
[Android Apps and Games] workdowg:
As is this app blows the official one out of the water! Like I said before I keep the official one frozen for the times I need to upload a photo. Thanks for this app! Take your time and enjoy life!

Since I found out about your app, never used the official one or Messenger. Useless apps.
[Android Apps and Games] Giuskiller:
it's a very good app, but i cannot upload photos...Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus (CM12)
[Android Apps and Games] Hubik82:
Yeah, that's the only bug of this app, hope it will be fixed soon...
[Android Apps and Games] Fuzzy13:
I'm sure it's already been said but this app this great. If you could somehow make the action bar reappear with a slight scroll up, then you will have created an app that hands down destroys the official FB app. As it sits it's already better but there's so much room to make it over the top. Slide out menu from the right would be amazing too.

Keep up the great work and thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] r4j:
I can't upload photos too, please fix it
[Android Apps and Games] scanferr:

Hey,

it seems exactly like the app I was looking for. Great job! :)

It just seems I have a small bug with the messaging, the app doesnt scroll down on my Moto G 4 GB with Lolipop
[Android Apps and Games] FastGas:
cixty you can adapt this app for Android 2.3.x? it is obvious that the terminals with old Android are also slower, thus would benefit from this app !!
[Android Apps and Games] :
Hmm I'm wondering why clicking on "Missed stories" causes switching all the content into desktop mode. Whats more status bar looks so strange, I mean diffrent icons, another order and tapping 'friends' shows notifications???!

I would suggest adding a little bit more friendly activity to image view (with photo zooming).

Hope this changes will be added soon ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Ben36:
Just seen this. Nexus 5 on lollipop can't upload anything through the app.

Should it have push notifications too? If so that doesn't work either. But i like the look! If these 2 things are fixed it'd be a permanent replacement!
[Android Apps and Games] ahmedelhofy:
I don't think that push notifications is possible.... But photo upload could be fixed though... It's up to the dev..
[Android Apps and Games] VideoExpertsGroup:
And what about security?
[Android Apps and Games] scottjb:
It's Facebook, there is no security. ?
[Android Apps and Games] BabboDemonio:
Compare the authorizations required by this app and the official one and tell me with which you feel more secure.

They just released Lite version today so we can expect some updates soon. Maybe they will add some missing functionalities like tagging people in comments or News Feed settings.

Well, screw fb lite!!! This project started as a lightweight alternative to Facebook, but what I saw was a means to use Facebook without having to compromise near unlimited access to my phone through the Facebook app. Official or not, fb lite still has a hell of a lot of permissions... All of which I'm sure fb needs to gather more info on you(lol) nefarious companies aside, fb makes crap apps. I'd rather use this.
[Android Apps and Games] j1gga84:
FB lite looks like windows 95, no alternative for me, sorry :D

I will stay on this project and hope that development will continue one day :)

I have the same issue using SwiftKey. I haven't tried using AOSP keyboard, but using Google Keyboard didn't work either. Currently I have to use other browsers for commenting. Therefore I use this app only to read through my latest news.
[Android Apps and Games] Hubik82:
I like this app a lot but it need to be updated since photo upload is broken. For the moment Facebook Lite has two advantages for me: working photo upload + sharing photos from another apps and push notifications (not possible in "our" app). Layout is not pretty but the performance is a priority. Disadvantages: tagging people in posts and video upload is not possible. App needs also a lot of permissions but if you're using custom rom it's easy to block some of them.

At this moment it's hard to say which app is better. It depends on people's individual needs.

[Android Apps and Games] :
If you guys report a bug, please tell me the android version you are using. Also describe it as good as you can and a screenshot could sometimes also helpful. With this information I should be able to fix the problems faster.

So far we got

- FC when playing video

- Some pictures not loading

- Upload doesn't work

It seems like there is no need for actionbar, I'll remove it completely.

Keep in mind that I can't look after the app 24 hours a day.

Android version: 4.1.1 aosp rom
[Android Apps and Games] :
No FC using 4.4. Most problems seem to be android version related, because I have no problems regarding missing text/pictures.
[Android Apps and Games] krule031:
What could be the problem then?

Is there anything I can do to solve this?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Upgrade to 4.4 KitKat :p

WebView changed a bit since KitKat and there are serveral problems because of that. Black screen when playing videos under KitKat is a known problem. I am working on fixing it. Everything is related to the APIs and developing an app for different APIs is somehow a pain :D. Maybe I'll get some help from other developers. I'll see but first things first I'm working on the video problem if I have enough time. As long as it is not fixed or I uploading a new version you are free to use older versions.
[Android Apps and Games] krule031:
Well, thats not a good idea. Im only 16 years old, so I cant afford to buy a new phone, while all kitkat roms for my phone are wip.

So, in the meantime, Ill use the older versions as you say:D

[Android Apps and Games] najibo20xx:

[Android Apps and Games] Ckovvi:

[Android Apps and Games] :
A little reminder. Always respect the privacy of others. Think twice before you upload a screenshot.

FYI I'm not dead ;)
[Android Apps and Games] churchrickshaw:
I don't see this being asked but I was wondering if you could look into enabling the long-click action for videos.

If you're logged into FB on the regular Chrome browser (on your phone), you're able to long-click and the 'Save Video' option actually shows up. I think this would be a super useful feature that no other app seems to be able to do.
[Android Apps and Games] ainabells:
Hi,

I have tried your Facebook browser and it really is nice. I do prefer using this over the official app (which loads really slow). I experienced some issues with uploading photos, though. When I try to upload photos, nothing happens. It does not show any option to go to my phone's gallery. Any advise regarding this?
[Android Apps and Games] Portgas D. Ace:
The photo upload does not work properly, it has been reported several times. As the developer has set this project not to be on his/her priority list, no updates are to be expected in the near future.

For photo upload I use another browser, e.g. Opera Mini.

[Android Apps and Games] dirceucorsetti:
This has become my main FB app. Unintrusive, clean and with no privacy concerns (unlike Facebook Lite), it also ramped up my battery life a lot.

There is a reason why so many of us are abandoning Facebook, and it is their fault for not providing an alternative for the occasional user. I am sure I will follow you on a not that distant future. Thanks for not leaving us hanging and for the work so far!

If it had group share support it would be a near perfect replacement. I know it can be switched to desktop mode to enable group share but it would be great to add it the mobile code.

Use Tinfoil for Facebook. A very great alternative of this app :)
[Android Apps and Games] ilbeppez:

Inviato dal mio Nexus 5
[Android Apps and Games] egps2:
Same! I know this is not the right thread for this but I am now also using tinfoil and I think it's an excellent alternative. Swipe in side bar with links is also a great feature to have and it can open facebook links like the original app and also open links in the same window. I was pleasantly surprised :) official facebook lite is also nice to have for notifications without the battery drain or relying on emails. We should probably return to only discussing cixty's app though. Sorry!
[Android Apps and Games] jnetode:
Another option is to use uc browser. It has a Facebook plugin and has notifications also.

I still prefer [MENTION=5285187]cixty[/MENTION]'s but it is a nice alternative once it gets outdated.
