The brand spanking new Keyword Filtering feature for Android devices works in two ways: If you’re tired of seeing political posts, simply set your Keyword Filter to hide posts and articles containing the keywords “election,” “Republican,” or “Democrat”... and voilà: Any posts containing those words will not appear in your news feed.

Conversely, if you want to see more posts featuring cats (or posts from a close friend), you can set a Keyword Filter to highlight topics and users. Why settle for Fb less-than-ideal algorithm when you can take full news feed control with Friendly?

Ratings and reviews

Needs an update (big issue) The search tool no longer works. It says you need to be logged in, even though I am and have no problems writing new statuses and interacting with people etc. I did find a fix for this, where you click the the vertical dots, and request the Desktop Version… This is the big issue I don't know if anyone else has experienced. Every single time I've requested the Desktop Version, within a day I get an email saying somebody has requested to reset my password. Please fix!

The mandatory dark mode is horrible. I can't read anything and I can't turn it off. I really dislike the new interface. The weird +/- thing that keeps appearing at the bottom of the screen is very distracting. Is there any way to disable it? From an older version: Facebook won't let me share anything using this app. It says it contains malware. Now I know my phone is clean at least according to Avast and Malwarebytes anyway. I can post from Chrome but not via Friendly.

Things I like, customisable, can block ads, can read messages without using messenger. Things I don't, the fact the newsfeed more often than not gets stuck on a loop of 2/3 posts, that I can no longer change from "most recent" to "top posts", some external links just won't open, and when you type a reply and only a few letters are registered when you submit, rarely able to tag anyone in a reply.
